I hated 1980's 3D movies with those crappy paper blue and red glasses. Always gave me a headache and it was never a proper 3D image.
Recently though 3D movies have actually been really good. Haven't seen Avatar yet but would like to, but seen a few impressive Disney movies in 3D (Coraline springs to mind). Was wondering why it wasn't being done on HDTVs.
In recent years I've switched almost everything to HD - got a HD TV, Sky+HD and at Christmas got a PS3 from my girlfriend so we've started a Blu-Ray collection. Can really tell the difference between DVD and BluRay, or SDTV and HDTV. But true 3D is probably going to be "the next big thing".
This article says that Sky would be launching it for their Sky+HD subscribers (that includes me), but then says that 3DTV sets will start being sold later in the year, makes it sound incompatible with existing TVs. Anyone know, if/when 3DTV starts getting pushed, will everyone who's gone out and bought HDTV sets needs to replace it then with a new 3DTV one?
How are other nations broadcasters doing at launching this?
