Re: Anyone esle sick of 3D movies?
the really good movies are not made with "Look what I can do with 3D" effects, with shit sticking in your face, really cheezy
Piraña was FULL of this. it was the worst movie i have EVER seen. - damn!
It was so cheezy, there was soooo much - look im 3d, look what i can do - shit going on.
James Cameron's Avatar, had a perfect show about how you should use 3D. it made the depth a little bit better and gave a nice calm display. ( not talking about the movie and its content here, just how the 3D was used. )
so No, I dont think this can be argued, 3D is simply an improvement and 1 step ahead.
But there are many directors who give it a bad name, by abusing it in shitty movies, rather then using it as a slight improvement in depth.

Re: Anyone esle sick of 3D movies?
I loved Avatar, and Piranha (which had the whole "stick in your face" effect as a joke - it was a take-off on the 3D effects of the 1970's and 80's for those of you who weren't around back then. my husband and I laughed hysterically through the whole thing, with all the "inside jokes").
Resident Evil was ok, the 3D wasn't too intrusive.
but I'd rather watch a "post-converted" film in its original 2D format. I'm SO happy they didn't convert Harry Potter. it would not have brought anything to the movie at all.
wow, a lot of you people have pretty expensive theatres!
most of the cinemas around us have daytime showings that are nearly half price (down from $12 evening/week-end rates).
A bit of palindromic wisdom:

Re: Anyone esle sick of 3D movies?
However, slapping 3D onto a movie that wasn't specifically made with 3D in mind makes it look very tedious, IMO. It's a blantent Search for More Money technique, and if Hollywood thinks viewers don't realize that, well, they're frankly being insulting to us. Clash of the Titans didn't need it, and its inclusion felt tacked on (even if the giant riding scorpions were awesome).
The thing that's starting to annoy me is that I wear glasses, and the 3D glasses you have to wear to watch these movies never fit properly over my own glasses, so I'm stuck balancing them on the end of my nose for 2 hours. Imagine what it was like to have to do that all the way through Avatar -_-

I feel your pain. I avoid 3D like the plague because it's so annoying to wear those stupid glasses over a pair of glasses.Cerah wrote: The thing that's starting to annoy me is that I wear glasses, and the 3D glasses you have to wear to watch these movies never fit properly over my own glasses, so I'm stuck balancing them on the end of my nose for 2 hours.

Re: Anyone esle sick of 3D movies?
Indeed i am several films are being remade into 3D which is ruining their fanbases love of the films and or film series such as the old star wars i hear they are yet again being "Remastered" this time in 3D its pointless and ruins the experience, i want to see the fights not feel like im part of it due to the 3dnesscowmuflage wrote:I am getting sick of them really. most are really bad the only one I have seen in ages that was good and used 3D well was Piranha 3D lol loved that movie was my kind of thing but to every movie like that theres a allice in wonderland or a resident evil 4 i am sick of it. It hurts my eyes and well for a long movie gives me migranes( i am talking to you avatar). They are worse if they are not shot in 3d and have it put on later so the things all blurry. Just i want them to stop and well make a good movie heavens knows we need some more. I know i don't have to see it in 3D and well i don't but still.
:S sorry for this not being a huge thing with lots of reasons i just needed to say what i think about it.

But since a better 3D experience is out there, maybe it's time to redo Jaws 3-D and Friday The 13th 3-D
