3D Movies!!!

Recently, there has been a growing trend in the movie industry towards watching movies in the third dimension or simply put: "3D".  I am not saying that I hate 3D movies; I just don't get what the big deal is.  Now I admit, I don't get a lot of things and this is one of them. When you go to the theatres to watch a 3D movie, not only do you usually have to buy a popcorn and drink, you also have to get those stupid 3D glasses that'll make you look like someone from a bad 80's movie!  Why does every movie have to be in 3D now? Take Green Hornet for example. Do we really need to see Seth Rogan's big fucking head popping out of the big screen!?!  Now imagine watching a 3D drama movie...or a remake of the Mask with Rocky Dennis (google him if you don’t know who that is). Picture that giant fucking head in 3D! Now that’s a sight for soar eyes!

Even the TV industry is getting in on this 3D technology now. So again, if you want to feel the full 3D experience in the comfort of your own living room, you have to wear those glasses that are fit for Geordi La Forge. I tried watching something on 3D TV once and I didn't have a clue what was going on! The only thing I got out of my experience was a migraine! How in God’s name are you supposed to follow what the hell is going on in the movie when you're experiencing an epileptic seizure!  Even televised sports are trying to get in on the 3D market. Imagine watching hockey or baseball in 3D??  Yeah, that’s what you want visualize... getting a 90 MPH puck or a fastball headed straight for your face! Here’s an idea!…if you want to get the full feel of the game, you know, the full experience of a sporting event, here’s something you can all do…. ACTUALLY GO TO THE BLOODY GAME!!!!

I wonder how people with prescription glasses wear these HD glasses. Do they have to take off their own glasses and wear the 3D ones?  I'm sure with their impaired vision; it would make it even better to watch something in 3D. Then again...no it probably won't! People; please listen to me! 3D does not make stories better, it does not add to the experience, it is just the latest fad in the technology industry…. a novelty if you will.  People need to wake up and get over this shit!  On that note, this has been another...Classic Insight!
