They look cool, but 3D is disgusting. I can't believe people pay hundreds of dollars extra for 3D TVs.

The only 3D showing I can remember where I didn't feel like barfing the whole time was Hugo, and that was because it was very bare-bones 3D (i.e. nothing jumping out at you or trying to be impressive).

I agree. Martin Scorsese used the 3D as a tool to help tell the story and convey emotion rather than just a gimmick to get more money at the cinema. Avatar is a good example of this too but not as perfected as Hugo.

IDK they have come a long way with post converted 3d. Personally if i can i go to 3d i just feel more immersed into the movie Ive never really gotten sick or dizzy only issue i have is that my local theater does not have "screens" they have white painted walls so i can see the seams in the wall and while watching in 3d my ADHD kicks in and some time get distracted. but not very often

Those who wear glasses just wear contacts or do eye surgery. Problem solved for the 3d glasses.

If these get released here I'd definitely get em.

I did 3D conversion for several years. In the beginning especially right after Avatar came out, several studios rushed the conversion process just to capitalize on the whole 3D novelty. Around the time of Hugo, 2011-ish, 3D was getting such a bad reputation that the studios wised up. Also the digital cameras got better so now most 3D films are shot natively. If they are converted, the process has been perfected to the point where its hard to tell what has been shot and what has been converted. I think this movie was shot natively but I could be wrong. Sorry. I'm a nerd lol

I'm pretty sure it's being post-converted. I didn't see any 3D Alexa rigs in the set shots.

If this movie were filmed in 3D they wouldn't be showing a 2D trailer in front of 3D films. It's post-converted.

I have no intention of seeing this movie in 3D, BUT, I will gladly buy a ticket to a 3D showing just to snag a pair of these glasses.

...and wear them to work the next day. Why? Because it's awesome.

Everyone I know said it was in 2D, and it was in 2D when I saw it, even though it was in front of a 3D showing of Cap 2.

I like these glasses. Pretty cool bit of merch. I'll definitely pick up if they're round my way.

I really don't mind 3D. I've seen some pretty cool films in which the 3D made them better, in my opinion. Don't think I've seen a film in 3D that wasn't filmed for it though...
