Sick & Tired of 3-D

Am I the only one who's tired of every other movie in theaters being in 3D? Seriously, didn't we already have this fad? And didn't it die the death that it deserved?

Are people really entertained by shit popping out at them? Is that really so cool?

I feel like I can't go to the theater anymore without 3D glasses. Which really sucks, because one of my eyes is shitty as hell, and I end up not being able to see shit.

But what really bugs me is that movies are coming to DVD in 3D. Does that mean that I will always have to wear a pair of 3D glasses when I watch the movie? I don't know, but if it does mean that, then I'm not buying any of those DVDs, no matter how much I want to see the movie.

A couple of weeks ago, I heard some movie-making guy say that 3D was going to be here for a long time, that movies had to find a way to be different and get people's attention, so they wouldn't just watch TV. I wanted to punch the guy, because that logic is stupid as hell, but at the same time, I thought, "Well, I might never go to the theater again."

So, does anyone agree with me, or am I just acting like an old fart who hates change?

Bitch moar, or, you could simply ignore any movie that has to do with 3D. Maybe 3D is popular with kids and shit, but the change depends on the demand. Apparently, the theaters/producers/whatever(the cocksuckers watching the trends) had noticed the rise in popularity of those types of movies and are making more of them. Maybe they're thinking like the dumbass you mentioned and are trying out how having more 3D movies will work out for them.

Personally I hate 3D movies since the glasses fuck with my eyes. The moment I put on the glasses I notice how uncomfortable it is for my eyes to see things "differently."

If the DVDs are anything like the one I have, then the 3D movie part is optional.

I have not gone to see any movie in 3-D. What movies recently released are in 3-D?

dood i hate it. i try to goto theater where it isnt in 3d cause i get a horrible head ache when i see 3d movies. and you cant just take the glasses off either since the whole double image thing make impossible to watch with out the glasses everything ends blurry with out them

i have to wear my glasses while wearing the 3d glasses, feels weird..

and the 3d usually not having huge impact anyway.. so the 3d isn't all that good

You make it sound like the theaters are lousy with 3D movies, when there are actually only a select few; most of them, as stated above somewhere, directed at little kids. I found the concept of 3D movies droll at first, but once I saw one, it felt very 'meh'. Mostly, you would have some scene directly catered for there to be something that pops out at you, with little other reason for the scene to exist in the first place. After seeing that maybe once, you get tired of it, so it is not surprising that you are are steeped in rage. I get that.

I wouldn't be too worried though, and I say that because I saw 'The nightmare before christmas' in its recent 3D re-release. It was clear from the start that the movie wasn't meant to be in 3D. The effects were subdued, things didn't pop out nearly as much as they normally would, and after a while you had to wonder why you were wearing the damn glasses to begin with. Great movie though. And why was it great? Because it wasn't made for 3D. Movies that are for 3D are generally bad and gimmicky, and despite the fact that they will be around for a long time probably, I wouldn't let it affect your general movie going experience. You won't be seeing stuff like Godfather in 3D anytime soon. ...although that would be funny.

Funny thing just happened, I saw a commercial for another 3D movie: The final destination. MMMM, 3D guro.

Lol, I suppose movies themed for adults will end up in 3D afterall. Now, off to see the trailer.

If I remember correctly, this whole 3D thing started with My Bloody Valentine, a horror movie. Now, with The Final Destination, it looks like my fears are being realized - horror films are hopping on the 3D bandwagon. (Thankfully, it seems that FD will also have a 2D release, "in select theaters.")

Thinking about it, I have overreacted a bit to this 3D fad, seeing as most of the movies that have come out have been aimed towards kids, but I'm upset mostly because I believe that 3D won't stick just to kids' movies. It could spread to horror (the signs are already there), action, sci-fi - everything that could possibly use it.

ok heres the thing, movie directors and prodcers and people in the industry of movies who want to make a quick buck are endorsing 3D so they can make even more money. now that the economy is in the shitter, what better way to get more money then to sell a blu-ray movie for $60 and add a pair of 3D glasses that u probly hav to pay 4?

the thing is, no one needs more 3D. it was cute 4 a while, but now that there is such thing as blu ray, arent things as real looking as it gets? if they seriously think 3D makes everything better, then they hav the wrong idea. i was thinking the same thing when i saw this new kids movie called shorts in 3D: "wtf is up with 3D?"

we really need to look into this and tell some influential person that 3D is just overdoing it, and to stop.

Nothing new to me.
