The amazing thing is that hollywood have managed to get everyone to accept this technology as '3D'.
They are actually stereoscopic movies. Stereo vision being just one cue that our brain uses to interpret the 3D world along with perspective, parallax, atmospheric colour.. And one that works mainly for things that are within our arms reach.
I saw avatar in '3D' and '2D'. The '3D' version really doesnt add a lot. And there is nothing more lame than the shots where objects approach the camera just to show off the technology.
