I checked that scene sitting and standing without any ghosting issues.
Hmmm... ok, thanks Robert.

Worthy questions (I think at least) to add here:
1) If 3D truly is done, how are we supposed to watch all our 3D discs in the future? That’s what bugs me more than whether any new ones will be made. Do they expect us to just watch the 2D versions, or throw them out since any movie over 10 years old isn’t worth watching anyways? The least I’m hoping for is an external device to add active 3D back to TVs- wouldn’t be as good as continuing passive technology and wouldn’t get the masses on board, but would be better than nothing.
Are you sure about that Tino? I was under the impression that the passive 3D used on TVs was vertical/horizontal polarization rather the the circular polarization used by RealD 3D.
Any system that uses colored glasses is awful- I've seen almost all of them. There's just no way to get the color right, and if it's done in black and white it's just an alternating red and blue mess rather than a proper black and white picture.
No ghosting on my LG 65” C6 either
Last year up I ordered a LG LCD. Ghosting on it was horrible. Had a LG technician look at it swap out the board and all that...no improvement, ended up sending it back and splurged on the Curved OLED (which was $1000 less than the flat panel). Better performance (of my tests was the title screen on Jaws 3D which had horrible ghosting on the LCD, still had some ghosting on the OLED, but it was the same as on my older Samsung active display). But I do find I really have to be in sweet spot to not get any ghosting. If there's a problem with the display, not much I can do now since this is the last 3D display I will even own apparently. It's still under warranty, but nothing the technician did for the original LCD I bought had any effect so I wouldn't expect any difference for the OLED.

2) Would ONE really well done and popular movie shot in 3D be enough to bring equipment back into production?
Jaws 3D which had horrible ghosting
By that point everybody in this thread will be dead.Going by history, it'll come back around in 30 years.
Uhm....no....By that point everybody in this thread will be dead.
By that point everybody in this thread will be dead.
Well, I certainly don't plan to be! But we sure will miss you and your boundless optimism.By that point everybody in this thread will be dead.
Though it got little coverage, turns out there WAS an 8K glasses-free 3D display being shown at CES and the manufacturer (admittedly one I've never heard of) is trying to push it. No word of when we can actually buy one, but at least it's something.
That's a good point. If 3D remains viable in Asia and Europe, there should be content available for years to come, especially if you're region free. Displays might be more problematic, but it's hard to imagine if the content remains available that some manufacturer, at some point, wouldn't introduce a 3D feature in future displays (and it might not require separate glasses, per the posts above).If 3D makes a comeback, we only have to thank China...they are going to own Hollywood! They just built quite a few 3D theaters last year...
