It's official: 3D is dead

parislemon:

Vlad Savov of The Verge:

The 3D TV won its tortured, protracted war — you can buy a 3D TV anywhere and at any time — and nobody could care less.

I happen to think 3D in movie theaters is still a gimmicky distraction from storytelling that will (once again) die out over time. I happen to think 3D on your TV in the home is fucking ridiculous and was dead on arrival. Good riddance.

I have a 3D TV and have never used. In fact, I have no desire to support the 3D market but when my old TV broke under warranty I got a new 3D enabled TV. I won’t buy movies either, if they have the 3D option.

The news that it is now dead couldn’t make me happier.

    Sound will always trump picture. It’s far easier to get genuine 3D sound than any kind of 3D picture. I’m hoping that...

    Until Apple figures it out and makes it cool. Nah, fuck 3D.
