Film

It’s been a little while since I last watched a 3D movie, and tonight I went to see Clash of the Titans in 3D (review tomorrow maybe). It was good the whole movie was in 3D, I grant you, since taking the glasses on and off between 3D scenes really irked the last time.

But both my sister and I ended up feeling a bit sick and a bit headachy afterwards. And although this wasn’t a proper 3D movie like Resident Evil: Afterlife or Avatar, but a version made 3D from a 2D original in post-production, I can’t say the 3D added much – it reminded me too much of those IMAX 3D rides they have in Vegas: so much spectacle but very little use for storytelling.

But how about you?

Do you like 3D movies? Are there merits too them beyond making piracy harder and pointless? Do they need to be shot specially or is computer-generated 3D as good? Does it make you sick or give you headaches? Is it worth the extra price on the ticket? Would you avoid or go to a 3D movie especially?
