3D - 2

IMAX 3d movies don't look like the old school 3d movies or is it just me?

Okay I saw Harry Potter on Imax and only a couple of clips were what I remember to be for real 3-d. When they were flying I only saw two threshals (or whatever they're called) in the theater, everything else was 3d in the screen like the shelves with the fortune balls only stuck out a littel in the SCREEN. My first experience with 3-d was the Michael Jackson "Captain Eo" movie and I remember he'd be OUT IN THE AUDIENCE above the audience and when he's flying at the end he's out in the audience. So my question is coudl it be my seating position(i sat in the middle so do i need to sit on teh sides for the next 3-d movie) or is it b/c it's stadium seating (Michael Jackson was like floor seats at a concert, are back to back seating. remember where you gotta sit to the side if someone is taller than you and blocking your way)

1. 3-d tech has vastly improved recently, especially with IMAX, it is less about gimmicks, and it also keeps good color and picture quality, unlike the red and blue glasses. They shoot with two side by side cameras, so instead of things jumping out at you, you can see the depth to all degrees in the movie, U2-3D was one of the first, and the best example is how the drum sets looks like you are standing over it
