3D - 2

Has the world gone 3D mad?

I only ever watch television in the school holidays, however this weekend I've had to stay in during the night, because, well my mum just wouldn't let me out! Anyway I thought I'd put the TV on and there was loads of programmes about 3D. Right now, I'm just not bothering to go to bed, and the TV is on.. second programme on this channel about 3D. A lot of new films are also 3D.. Do you think eventually everything will be in 3D? Do you like 3D, or would you rather it didn't come about? I'm not sure why this went into radio, when I clicked Television!

1. they made a 3d tv in japan: http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2008/04/10/3d_tv_stereoscopic_japan/
2. Um, real life is in 3D, so it's already quite popular?
3. It's come and gone before - I assume you're in the UK and watching Channel 4.? They've missed a fantastic opportunity to get 3D off the ground, then wasted it with some of the weakest material and crappiest films ever made... Nonetheless, 3D is best in the cinemas, primarily because it uses polarised light filters, rather than coloured lenses.. So the pictures appear in their true colours.. Unless, or until, 3D holographic TV becomes a reality, I think 3D will remain the sole preserve of the cinema..
4. I think this might answer your question: WBCN http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bill-lichtenstein/wbcn-and-the-american-rev_b_245147.html
5. I don't think 3d will take over. Not everyone is going to want 3d, but a lot of people like it so it will be around. Not everyone has a surround sound system, but most movies have surround sound on them.
