If not Existenz, how about a holo-deck? --- End quote --- Well, the thing is, what are movies at all but 2d windows into another world? I love 3d tech. Loved it since I first heard of it. Not that red/cyan crap, but genuine different view per eye 3d. Magic eye, viewmaster, polarized, LCD shutter; love it all. It bothers me that so many people seem to be against 3d. I worry it will discourage the progress in the field. I think if people don't like 3d in its current state, don't watch it that way... but don't tear it down for others that do (this is not directed at you, just a frustration in general..) --- Quote from: saint on July 05, 2011, 04:08:05 pm ---5 seconds, literally 5 seconds, on the ride and I broke out in a cold sweat and it took everything I had not to vomit. I ripped the helmet off, and was sick for the next two hours. Completely killed the night for me. VR-3d is dead to me until they have technology that doesn't do that to me. :( --- End quote --- I would love the try that out, honestly. Something that can make a person sick in 3d is something I would like to look into. Then again, I once had the flu and lost my equilibrium for about an hour. It was quite pleasent, laying in my bed listening to my ipod. My 3d projector says in the manual that some people can't see 3d with lcd shutter glasses, and I've heard reports of the same from people. I've also heard it gives some people headaches. |

its a dying fad, people aren't interested in wearing stuff on their head. 3d movies are tanking. |

I'd also attribute that to the sheer volume of crappy 3d there is out there. I can count on one hand the number of movies I have seen with truely impressive 3d. I love 3D stuff, but I have become skiddish around 3d movies. |

Just now that it's more popular are people pissing and moaning. There are 25 movies announced for the second half of this year that will be in 3d. I just don't get it. 3d movies weren't a big annoyance until 3d tvs came out. Then people started crapping their pants, rallying against it. Bunch of freaking cyclopes. I honestly can't imagine a person not liking something in 3d. It doesn't have to wow you, it can be subtle, just something there. Personally, I don't like 3d movies that poke at my face, and I think that's what people typically associate with 3d. Gimmicky face poking. Explain to me what you dislike about 3d. Is it literally just the glasses? |
