Reply to comment by ViolentAmbassador in Anyone else hate 3D movies? by sadlibra

I thought gravity was pretty good in 3d, but for the most part its white objects on a black background, so I think it would have sold just as well in 2d. If I'm not in a group I will always choose regular because of the glasses over glasses thing.

I thought Gravity was great in 3D because the takes are soooo long that my brain didn't have to spend time reorienting itself. Action movies with quick cuts force me to spend a split-second to understand where everything is each time the camera cuts to a new view. But Gravity allowed me enough time to figure out the scene and where all the objects were.

I didn't see Gravity in theaters at all, but I can see it being something that would be cool. I don't mean to imply that there aren't any others than what I listed, but they're pretty rare.

Same on the glasses over glasses issue

Couldn't agree more! Crazy rare, I just checked my local theater out of curiosity and they don't have any 3D showtimes listed, last one I can remember is Avatar 2. I wonder if that is a nationwide phenomena or if my area is just particularly 3d averse lol.
