I like that: *creates!*
For you I will *creates* a diamond from a malted milk ball. Sorry Chris, I'm a visual purist. Did you do that eye thingy thing I mentioned? Deal is you can't recreate what it doesn't know, it can only guess what was there, so it uses Digital Fudge ™ to approximate what *might* be there. It's fake, it's a lie, it's implants, and it's all just to separate fools from their money. Studio Exec: "Content? Ha! WTF is that?? Why put $effort$ into writing when we can fool, er, entertain the dumbasses, I mean, masses?"

Hey, you're preachin' to the choir here, to an extent. You're talking to the guy who can't watch the 3D movies - either the old style with the red&blue glasses OR the new kind like Avatar, because I can't see the 3D, and just end up watching a blurry mess that gives me a giant headache in less than 2 minutes, and makes me feel like I'm going to heave (and I ride rollercoasters and ride along on aerobatics flights for shits & giggles, so I don't puke easily!)
I'm just saying that they're doin' it.
I agree with gutting them and having an auction, too - but only if it's broadcast in gory 3D! :)

Okay, couple things.
1) Diamond from malted milk ball? If there's carbon in that milk ball, why not? :) Carbon, heat, pressure, time = diamond.
2) Saying "it's fake" about something like Star Wars is kind of ridiculous. Reminds me of the Bobcat Goldthwaite bit about the reissue of Ep IV, where all the nerds were yelling "FAKE!" when Jabba walked onscreen. What in that movie WASN'T fake? Did all the rest of it REALLY happen a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away? Are there those among us who thought it was a documentary?
IT'S ALL FAKE ALREADY! Is making it *appear* to be in 3D somehow *more* fake? Would it somehow dilute the realism of the light sabers if they looked like they were about to cut you in half?
Yes, it's fake. It's fake 3D. But if it's on a screen in the first place, it's fake. Some 3D is done well, some isn't. Anyone who saw Jaws 3 in 3D knows this already, as does anyone who saw Friday the 13th Part 3 in 3D. (Friday 13 III was a horrible movie, but entertaining 3D in its own way; Jaws 3 was just horrible in every conceivable way, and should have all traces of it wiped from the face of the Earth)

I'm with you on this one.
I can't see the red/blue 3D and I never got those stereogram pictures either (I'm still convinced it's a conspiracy against me). But when this new 3D came out and I found out it was done differently I decided to give it a go and watched Avatar in 3D. Overall it was fairly good from my POV. It took a while longer than my mate for it to stop being too blurry and I did get a headache for about the first half hour but after that had passed it wasn't too bad for me. I guess I don't get it as bad as you Kwicko.
My big problem with 3D comes in two parts. The first is the differences between actually filming in 3D and then taking a movie filmed normally and making it 3D. The former I can go with because it was their intention from the start. The latter just seems to be a (cheaper??) quick fix to get in on a current trend and try to make more money.
The second part comes from those the films that instead of shooting the scenes how they normally would they force it to make use of the 3D effect. Like having stuff deliberately fly at the camera/viewer when they don't necessarily need to. I've only heard about this happening from reviews and friends that watch 3D movies more than me so I can't speak from personal viewing.
And it made me laugh when The Final Destination 3D was released. I never saw the film (never will) but I can see folks that saw it at the cinema in 'real' 3D, and liked it, would then go and buy the DVD or BluRay expecting the same and being stuck with the red/blue 3D. Suckers. And I know this happened coz a mate of mine works at Blockbuster and he told me about folks complaining.

Yup, it's odd - I used to be able to watch 3D just fine. A few years back, I had a problem with my right eye (iritis), which tends to come back in late July/early August *IF* it's dry and hot enough (which leads me to believe it's definitely triggered by some kind of allergic reaction, but to which pollen I don't know - yet.).
Anyway, ever since that first attack, which rendered me legally blind in that eye for over a month, I haven't been able to see the whole "3D" thing on screen. Fortunately, I can see it just fine in real life. :)

Hello,
I found a debate on the subject on Youtube.

Then put it in the list. I found it well written and absolutely riveting - with minute-by-minute description of the actions of Taffy 3's DDs and DEs aginst against the Japanese Center force, and profiles of the people involved. Chokes me up just to think of the bravery.

Same problem, different condition.
I've had mine since birth but it only revealed itself when I went for my first eye test when I was about 30.
I can't focus both my eyes at the same time. It was only slightly out until my eyesight got worse through age. It did explain why I was sometimes accused of giving ppeople the 'evil stare' and I wouldn't have a clue what they were on about. It would be me automatically adjusting each eye's focus to see them properly. It only took a millisecond but it was enough.
