@Lionnir,
I don't like the 3D stuff. I intentionally avoid 3D movies because I think the 3D effect distracts from the show (the glasses are also distracting).

But I'm not surprised Hollywood is doing it. They get to resell all their old material again once they convert it (Star Wars I for example). And they get to sell the new material for higher ticket prices.

@Lionnir,
I haven't seen that much. The impression I have is it can be done well or badly, (like much else), not that it's intrinsically awesome or terrible.

I saw the last Harry Potter movie (pt. 2) both in 3-D and without, and I was actually really impressed by the 3-D version.

There were also a lot of 3-D previews when I saw it, and from that I can hazard that "Arthur Christmas" sucked despite 3-Dness (as per Jespah's comment), and "Hugo" looked very, very good.

I've been unimpressed with movie theater 3D but I like it on my TV. The glasses synchronize with the image and it really pops.

@Lionnir,
For movies at the movie theater? 3d is the reason why that many studios are breaking box office records even though that overall box office ticket sales have been dropping at a steady rate.

Also, the 3d tech acts like a visual DRM (copyright protection) in the movie theater as one just can't take a camcorder into the cinema and bootleg the film and still capture the 3d effects on the camera. Just won't work.

As for televisions and BluRay players? Manufacturers are trying to give consumers new reasons to update their relatively new HD televisions and BluRay players why adding additional expenses to the sale with those goofy high priced 3d glasses that they're individually selling with the new TV's.

@Lionnir,
I like 3d games over 2d games. Just feels more immersive.

Don't think I've ever seen a 3d movie other than the thriller video at disneyland.

Ellen DeGeneres in 'Finding Nemo 3D': Is it worth seeing in its new format?
Ellen DeGeneres' 'Finding Nemo' gets a 3D re-release – is it worth the ticket price?

Either this weekend or next, I'll be seeing Finding Nemo (once again) at the movie theater (seen it during its first theatrical release in 2003).

Anyone else seeing this great Pixar film while they have the chance to see it in the cinema?

@tsarstepan,
I wouldn't be interested in seeing it myself because I'm not impressed with 3D in general. But I might be interested in taking my daughter to it just to see how she reacts. But she's still a bit young to sit through an entire movie without wandering, and I don't know if she would tolerate wearing the glasses for that long. Maybe next year (when she's over 4yrs old) I'll give it a try to see how she likes it.

@rosborne979,
I enjoy a good deal of 3D and I know that diamondgeeks statement rings false. 3D television sales are flat (at best). Movie ticket sales are at record lows. 3D gaming is at a premium when the economy still truly bites.

It's still too early to say how successful this generation of 3D will last before the film studios, the video gaming publishers, and the tech manufacturers either improve it while making it overall cheaper or just give up unto the next generation 3D tech is invented.
