It's painfully obvious to me that 3D interest is going to wane. Why does this industry keep repeating the same silly mistake of using this gimmick?
$$$$

or rather, $$$$$ to those selling it, not so much the "industry" as a whole ...

Not if it's 3AM and you want to get the fuck out of the theatre and go home
Not sure if you are responding to me or not. If you are, I am baffled.

No, Joe. I forgot to put a quote, was replying to Darryl's comment about his liking movies more really really early in the morning watching them.

With Real-D you have to say the upcharge is "for the experience". If you told the truth and said "it's to pay for the glasses" people would bring their own. Or if you REALLY told the truth and said "it's a contrived way for us to extract more money from you to see inferior 3D conversions like Clash of the Titans", well you get the idea.

Saying the upcharge is "for the experience" is fine if the 3D is done correctly and all that.

Saying that is fine, but the upcharge is not fine. Anyone who pays it has been had.
