I hadn't heard Scott say that. A bit disappointed that he chose to go the 3D route without being behind it. Perhaps it was compromise with the studios. Still ...

Are you going to see Prometheus in 2D or 3D?

Right you are. No one's opinions can be wrong. No hard feelings.
I was just pulling your chain...
And I'm pleased that you liked it.
Ugh, where to begin with this horrible film. Sorry, this has to be one of the biggest let downs for me. I can live with the fact that it really isn't a sequel to Alien or Aliens. I can live with that. But this film was horrible. Again, we get another horrible acting from CT. If you have seen Snow White and the Huntsman, you have seen the same character.
I won't layout the spoilers here, but I found it to be laughable in parts and down right unwatchable in others. D- here.

Is that from the perspective of a "story" or how a movie was crafted? There is a spoiler thread if you want to go into details. BTW, I don't expect everyone to love or even like this film. How did you feel about the original two Alien movies?
Ok, if Ridley Scott himself says that the movie was supposed to be 2D, or at least conceived as such, then I might actually follow his lead. What I've seen in the trailer looked amazing in 3D though. What I'm really concerned about is actually the film itself, I have seen/heard bad reviews and this makes me quite sad, since I'm expecting this to be one of the highlights this year.
Saw it. The 3-D was absolutely gorgeous. I can't believe all the haters that voted for 2-D.
I can't believe so many people like 3D, it's such a gimmick that looks so fake. I can already see depth in a movie, I don't need to see it floating out in front of me to enjoy the movie.
i saw avengers in 3d and it was cheesy as hell. horrible. but done in post production.
prometheus was shot in 3d and it was excellent
Still not interested, I'll leave the 3D effects up to amusement park attractions. Not for featured films.
I thought Avatar in 3D at iMax was worth it, but generally speaking I prefer 2D. I see 3D as a overlying special effect that is not really needed or adds anything significant to the viewer experience.
I think you're in a similar boat as me. I think it's cool when something jumps out on the screen every now and then, but it's not necessary and doesn't really make the movie any better. To go even further, it cost more and you have to wear those stupid glasses.
Same here.
Prometheus in IMAX 3D is worth it. If I was going to the multiplex round the corner then I'd be seeing it in 2D.

I saw it in 3D IMAX and have to say I'm my opinion it was the best utilization of 3D to date. People have their opinions of the plot, but as far as the way the film looked, the score, and sound design,... it was beautiful. I didn't like avatar. It was overkill and gave me option sickness.
