    ‘Avatar 2’ Renews Push for 3D Format in Movie Theaters

    I think "many" would be more accurate these days and the trend is not good. We are starting to see 3D support dwindle in the low to mid-tier projector offerings. It's a fact that might end up costing me a huge premium to work around.

    ‘Avatar 2’ Renews Push for 3D Format in Movie Theaters

    Interesting read but I'd say this describes the shortcomings of commercial theaters more than the shortcomings or downfall of 3D as a format. ;)

    ‘Avatar 2’ Renews Push for 3D Format in Movie Theaters

    I couldn't agree more but sadly I also think this is precisely why the format will never be viable for the home. Truly impressive 3D requires a light-controlled [preferably dedicated] room and a large screen, not to mention a capable playback device and appropriate source material. The...

    I can totally understand your position. Believe me, I wanted soooo much to love the LS12000, buy it and be done. I even considered holding onto my 6050 for occasional 3D viewing. Epson is a brand I'm both familiar and comfortable with, plus I know it will work with my existing ceiling mount...

    ‘Avatar 2’ Renews Push for 3D Format in Movie Theaters

    I personally doubt the current generation knows or cares about Cameron or the Avatar franchise. I suspect both this film and the Spinal Tap reboot will be commercial flops but maybe not. Concerning 3D, I still have my collection which will suffice if need be.
