3D TV will pass faster than “you know what” through a goose.

No market, no demand & the worst possible timing, in this economy.

3D is a “theater experience” that nobody has the patience for at home.

3D is the biggest rip-off of the American movie ever.

• The 3D effects are subtle. They are not like the audience teasing effects of the 1950’s, where you were dogging arrows, snakes, hypodermic needles, or killer beast leaping out at you. Those were fun just watching the audience react. You don't have any of that now. You don't hear anyone talking about the cool 3D as they walk out of the theater, do you?

• It's an excuse to get you to pay an extra 3 or 4 dollars more per ticket.

The softcore p0rn industry alone will keep 3D tv thriving for years. ;)

That's the key. I'm interested in the technology itself, but I have very limited income to spend, most of it goes to surviving. Hopefully my 25 inch 1982 Zenith (been in daily use since early 1983) will still last for many years to come, I do have a Blu-Ray hooked up to it, got the Blu-Ray for Christmas, I'm the butt of joke for that one. B-) I think until they find some way to produce 3D with holograms or whatever else they come up with, it would be more acceptable than wearing glasses, I'm terminally nearsighted and it is a pain to put a set of glasses for 3D above what I have. I can do it but it is more of a pain in the butt.
