The 3D looks bad.

[TheCorpulent1]

I've never encountered a movie that's only showing in 3D in my area. It's much likelier for me to see 3D movies only being shown in 2D because there's some bigger 3D movie hogging all the 3D auditoriums at the theater.

I went to see Tron: Legacy yesterday and caught the Thor trailer in 3D. It didn't look bad at all, of course some shots look better than others but overall not bad.

Projection room. you know the room where the actual FILM is on huge tables? t:

Yeah, but nobody ever calls it a "camera room". Cameras are pretty much the opposite kind of concept a projector.

And what's this about "tables"? Are you referring to "platters"?

 

[Vartha]

heh yeah we called them tables. The family I worked for had Cameras for their own commercials so it was both camera room and projector room. (at the time they had 3 theaters and a drive-inn)

Thats what I thought, overall it looked pretty solid for a postconverted 3d film. There seemed to be a decent attempt at creating depth in the image and nothing really seemed to flat and cardboard cutoutish. Overall i was kinda impressed.

I'm planning on seeing Tron 3D this afternoon. Hopefully the Thor trailer will be on it.

 

[Vartha]

crud the Thor trailer wasn't on Tron.

 

[BigThor]

Ouch...im going to go see "The Green Hornet" tonight so I hope I see the Thor trailer

 

[Vartha]

I actually thought about seeing Green Hornet, but went with Tron.

Don't wanna upset too many fans here but really can't keep it to myself...This will most likely be the wrost superhero movie in 2011, with or without 3D. The tralier said it all man...

You must have seen a different trailer...probably something called Green Lantern. Thor on the other hand had a great trailer.

That's what I thought too. He probably wnet to the wrong forum.

Nahhh I think you probably saw a trailer for The Green Hornet

I think so, lol.

Wow. I'm really shocked by all this rabid hate. I mean, I knew it was the "in" thing to rag on 3D, but dayum...

I think the 3D looked awesome. It was especially used well in the hammer sequences.

Personally, I thought it looked better at Comic-Con, but that just might've been the coolness factor of seeing Thor footage for the first time (plus, the screen was much larger and the speakers much louder with more bass). And it was a better cut trailer, as well. This new trailer kind of kills the flow of the opening Asgard scene, in my opinion (plus, they cut out the best line!).

I'm gonna see this movie in IMAX first, and then 2D later, and see if there's any difference.

Finally someone who liked Thor's 3D, I knew it wasn't as bad as people make it out to be.

I was in the theater watching Tron Legacy in 3D the other night, and the 3D trailer for Thor played before it. I was not impressed with the quality of the stereo conversion, to say the least. In the closeups, Thor's face looked like it was being projected onto an egg-shaped object. His facial features had no definition, and I don't think he even had a nose. It was a flat image being projected onto a round, smooth object, and the effect did not look very convincing or flattering to the actor.

Overall, the 3D in this film looks like it's going to be lacking rather sorely in detail, and a lot of it also looked dark and blurry. Then again, this is a post-production stereo conversion so you can't really expect very high quality, but even so, I think it goes without saying that a 3D transfer that looks this bad is not worth your money.

i was planning on seeing this and Cap in 2D anyway, so thank you for vindicating me.

It wasn't THAT bad. I plan on seeing it in both formats honestly. The post conversion looked good for post conversion. It is what it is. Post conversion is really only going to look so good anyway.

I've only seen 2 movies that were 3D done right. Tron Legacy and Avatar. Besides those I haven't thought it added anything to the film.

I'm cool with 3D as a gimmick and "option". I'll be annoyed if I can't watch something in 2D if I want though. 3D only suits a select group of movies really. They need to quit slapping it on everything.

I totally agree, I prefer 2D viewing myself and I don't like the whole "2D in select theaters" nonesense.

I want to see Thor in 2D before I even think about seeing it in 3D.

Sometimes, when I see the amount of complaining that always goes along with 3D movies, I'm a little bit glad that I have an eye condition that prevents the glasses from even working on me.

If it's filmed with 3D cameras from the start, it looks great. Post-conversion? It's just a cheap way to sell tickets at a higher price. With 3D results that are severely lacking.

Movies filmed in 3D don't always look good, because sometimes they screw it up. Resident Evil 4 looked pretty crappy in 3D, and most of the time it didn't even look 3D. Everything just looked dark and blurry, and I think it's because Paul Anderson didn't know what he was doing with the camera system. The same thing supposedly afflicts Saw VII. It barely looked 3D except for a few shots, and to make matters worse they gave the movie a horrible color pallet to compensate for the glasses tint and they forgot to adjust it for the blu-Ray release, so all the blood looks like Pepto. Not that it really matters since both of those movies were POSes. If a movie is a POS, I guess you can't really expect good 3D from it.
