Post-converted or filmed in 3D, it doesn't change the fact that 3D just doesn't work. It's been and gone in the past and will do so again when more and more people get fed up with it. It's a f---king stupid way of fooling your eyes into accepting perspective on a flat surface plain, something film directors have been doing better for years with depth of field.
It is a fad as it always has been. And I cannot wait for it to die off again. |
Exactly. 3D is all about the money, and charging you around 3 or 4 dollars extras for a ticket, and then they put it in all the family and kids movie, which the kids just HAVE to see in 3d, and you have a family paying an extra 12 dollars for a movie, even more if they don't have glasses, so I think it's purely the money.
