I finally got to see a 3D movie for the first time at my local Best Buy and I have no trouble saying that the technology doesn't live up to the hype. To me it was basically a moving magic eye picture that was cross bred with a pop-up book. On top of the tacky look the picture itself made me dizzy which given that I've already had one seizure a couple of years ago makes the 3D technology itself a no-no. Still part of me is glad that the whole 3D thing isn't that great, makes me realize that I'm not missing out on the next great thing, rather it seems to be nothing more then a fad.

I think Roger Ebert was right in that the whole 3D craze is a counter-measure against pirating, which seems to be a good idea. However I think that 3D technology is going to be one of those things that people look back on and laugh.
