Must be a US thing. When I went to see Thor the queue for the 3D screening was longer than the 2D one, and that was just Thor so not exactly the benchmark 3D film of the decade! The ticket guy said on big titles like this they see a lot more 3D tickets than 2D...
But here a 3D film is £1 ontop of a £7-10 ticket. You can't even buy cinema snacks for £1.
Personally I love it. My eyes are quite bad but I get the effect. Always pulls me in more than 2D but I know it's not for all films. But when it works - I'm totally absorbed. During Thor I didn't even realise that my girlfriend had put her arm around me.
Tron Legacy. IMAX. 3D. There's nothing like it.
3D is a blast. I love it. God, a lot of you sound like a bunch of grouchy old farts.
