I missed HUGO in 3D and I regret that, based on what everyone's said. I would have liked to find out for myself if the effects are used as well as they were in AVATAR.Sam Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05696602364349746693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4685634083080876125.post-32082736914677508882012-01-23T16:18:04.214+00:002012-01-23T16:18:04.214+00:00I'm curious for Hugo, but until now the only g...I'm curious for Hugo, but until now the only great 3D-experience I've had was Avatar.<br />It was mind-blowing in 3D.

Higher than normal prices means less people, less people means less money (unless we're talking about blockbusters that have a large reach). I personally don't watch 3D (one of the main reasons i missed out on Hugo, wasn't anywhere near me in its 2d form). <br /><br />With filmmakers moving to digital (production and exhibition) I think 3D is here to stay but wearing glasses ove glasses is awkward, iMAX is a better alternative.
