Saw T2 3D yesterday. And man, it hurts not having a John Connor. If there had never been a Newt or Burke from Aliens it wouldn't be so bad. But this situation, as toy situations go, really sucks.

How was the 3D? Worth it? Or just obviously gimmicky?

I'm neutral on it. It was fine - it neither hurt nor boosted the film. You stop noticing it after a short time - except with the occasional scene where you become aware of it again. I will say that when you do become aware of it again it's good.

Mainly it's about seeing it in the cinema with an audience (either 'again' or, in my case, for the first time)

It's the kind of 3D I love, and that only Cameron seems to do right, where it gives the illusion of depth receding into the screen rather than things poking out of it and into your eyeballs. I thought it was very well done and appropriately subtle.

The cleanup of the original print was amazing. The film has never looked better than this and as long as they don't **** up the Blu-Ray transfer this'll be the version to own, I think.

I never understood the desire some people have for these tertiary characters. There's absolutely no need for a John Connor figure. I mean, he wasn't even in the first movie.

Cameron definitely gets the value of 3D. While I can easily watch any movie without it, ones where he use it are worth experience the effect because it creates and experience out of watching movies. I boycott most 3D films now because most of the time it's used as the same old cheap gimmick it was back in the 80s, just a bit more high tech, and that's not worth it.

 

[jye4ever]

Take Predator for instance, we've all seen the regular 2D version 100 times by now.

I'm getting a kick of now watching it in 3D it feels like you're watching it for the first time again, it gives it a whole new way of enjoying it.

Same with T2 now.
