I go to the theater only rarely, has to be something special. I saw Avatar in IMAX-3D. It was the 1st 3D movie I had seen in a long time & I think it was done correctly. I say this because I would forget the movie was in 3D (the real world is 3D). From time to time I would pay attention & realize that, yes, this is still 3D.
I went with the kids a couple weeks later to a movie they wanted to see. The effects were horrible, come to find out...it was 3D post processing. I will never go to one of those again.
Point being, 3D can add to the overall experiance when done correctly. When you look at a movie like Battleship, I think there are other factors involved. I only saw the movie in 2D. I can see where the effects could have added to the overall experiance, but it's more than that. The story was not good for today. We expect perfect effects that were just not there & the storyline was less than stellar as was the acting. Very glad I didn't see this in the theater. Does anybody know if this was filmed in 3D vs post processing?
