I was looking for a movie to go see this weekend, at a new theater that was opened about 2 months ago. They have 18+ seating theaters you can drink, and get food brought to you at a table. No kids allowed, and I wanted to try this out. Well unless I want to go and see a movie in 3D which I can not stand I probably won't make it into this new theater. There are less, and less movies being released that I want to see, and making them 3D means that I won't be seeing movies.
My problem with 3D is that it really hinders the movie. There always has to be someone throwing something, or stabbing the camera for an effect. All of the movies made for 3D or even had it tacked on do this. (I'm including Avatar in this because there are a few scenes that do this, plus I can't stand that piece of crap) I wanted to see Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, but not in 3D, Spiderman, Prometheus, these are all in 3D at this theater. My other option for non 3D is that Magic Mike movie or whatever the hell that crappy stripper thing just releasing today is. Yeah my wife does not even want to see that terd nugget.
What the hell happened to making movies. Are they all just pure garbage now. Has Hollywood really run out of ideas. I know the answer to that, and it is yes. Stop making 3D garbage, and go back to making movies. It's okay if your movie will open to only 2-3 hundred million for a day without 3D. Probably didn't cost as much to make when it is not in 3D even.
I want true emmersion in a movie, and 3D does not do it for me. I feel it actually takes away from the experience of the film. When you have to wear glasses to see what is going on, and hope it is not a blur (These glasses don't work the same for all people, especially those that have them over their glasses) it really makes me want my money back.
My rant has been brought to you with the letters D (for dumb), A (for Anger), and the number 3 (for how many times I have seen a 3d film, and refuse to ever watch another one.)
