Why I Hate 3D Movies by Roger Ebert.

Yep, he's on my good side again.

Lines:
While it's an interesting effect, I am one of those people who gets headaches from it. I also find it pretty much unnecessary. I saw Avatar without it and liked it just fine. I saw Alice and How to Train Your Dragon in 3D and while both were fun, both would have been just as good without it and the latter had a surcharge, which sucked. (I saw Alice at a different theater which has a flat rate price.) Will I see more 3D movies? Only if other people want to, otherwise I'll stick with the "flatness".

jhocking:
The man's a curmudgeon. I haven't read the article yet, and maybe I'll like it a lot, but speaking generally he's totally a "damn kids with their rock and roll" kinda guy.

Blue Kitty:
I haven't read the article yet, but I do feel that a lot of movies shouldn't have 3D.  How To Train Your Dragon did it well, mostly since it was built around it, but Alice and Wonderland added it in after, making the effects nauseating and a little jarring.  Basically, it's a gimmick.

scarred:
The only good 3D movie I've ever seen was Coraline, and I hesitate to even call that film 3D because it was done so artfully and with such subtlety that I don't want to associate it with other, despicably gimmicky 3D movies.
