3D Movies - The Read Thing?

    Just a quick comment. I've seen all the 3D movies the past few years in Cineworld and I feel a lttle bemused by them all .. here's why.

    I remember the Imax (where Cineworld is now) and seeing quite a few documentaries / docu movies there and they all blew me away. Every single one had me grasping the air six inches in front of me and laughing. Sometimes it would be quite a buzz to just watch everyone else do the same.

    So are the 3D movies different than those? Was the Imax a special projector or screen or what? Not one of the past seven or eight 3D movies I've seen at Cineworld has remotely pleased me in it's Three Demensional aspects - just wondering what others feel about them that have also experienced the IMAX or similar.

    I think the difference being that those Imax films are specifically made for 3D whereas the stuff you see in Cineworld has 3D tacked on as an added 'bonus'. They'd still work as films without the 3D effect.

    I've watched a few 3d movies in the cinema, but the experience does nothing for me at all. There isn't that much 3d in them and the glasses are all smudged and always slide down my nose.

    Going to see Up tomorrow, but not in 3d.

    Going to see UP tomorrow also and as it's in Screen 17 (1.00 and 3.40 are at least) I might see the 3D version for the simple reason that I haven't yet seen a 3D movie in Screen 17 and think it might be better than Screen 9.
