Glasses for Life

Oh that NPR channel. So this morning, NPR was discussing 3D movies and how every freaking movie is using the technology and my heart broke. I hate hate hate 3D. Everyone I know hates 3D. It’s annoying to wear stupid plastic glasses for 2 hours. The technology gives everyone a headache. It basically ruins the movie. I don’t see the need for objects seemingly flying at my face. It doesn’t appeal to me it just makes me feel like my personal space is being invaded. A lot. I have seen a few 3D movies and many because I had no choice. When I went to see the movie Coraline, my friends and I went out of our way to find a theatre that didn’t have 3D and it ended up being in 3D anyway. Even the DVD for the movie is in 3D. We even had to go all the way to Ventura to see Up in 2D. That is dedication. Well, we were on vacation and happened to see a 2D version and jumped at the chance. Anyway, we hate 3D. It sucks.

So NPR was saying that 3D is the new best thing and every movie is going to be 3D. Why?!?! Every time my friends and I see a preview for a movie that we want to see, the end says “coming in 3D” and we all groan. They are ruining movies!!! Turns out that 3D is so popular in the movie theatres and in video games that they are going to make TV 3D. Oh hell no. I will move to the mountains and become a hermit if that happens. 3D TV is being tested right now and certain devices are already for sale to make your living room a 3D palace of barf. What is the world coming to?!?!
