Just saw World War Z and while the movie was great, the 3D was not...

3D in theaters offers a darker screen since you're only getting half of the light to each eye, its out of focus unless you get good seats right in the middle and is absolutely not necessary for a movie like World war Z.

3D for gaming still has some merit and some movies do benefit from it, but why do over 50% of movies today have to utilize tacked on 3D I have no idea...

When is this 3D fad going to die? I've been fooling around with 3D since 2008 and at this point I will at this point pay a higher movie ticket premium to avoid 3D at all cost.

thing is  as far as i know there is no real hollywood movie completely shot in 3d most of the times its like 10% real 3d then added computer effects in 3d  and then shitty  tv-like   2d to 3d conversion. 

best 3d movies are still the animated ones.

 

"but why do over 50% of movies today have to utilize tacked on 3D I have no idea..."

 3d brings customers  dumb mainstream drones that do whatever they are told to do  thats why.  the same people that made games so generic. there is even 2d-3d converted blurays with no 3 whatsoever and they buy them...

Actually only Man if Steel & Star Trek Into Darkness & re-releases where converted from 2D to 3D this year.

G.I. Joe Retaliation was push back 9 months in its release date to be fully filmed in 3D. Hansel & Gretel Witch Hunters 1 was fully recorded in 3D, and so was Great Gatsby and all the other new release this year, excluding Superman & Star Trek 2 which I already mentioned where converted from 2D , with 0% shot in 3D.

Re-releases are converted too, like "Independence Day" *Will Smith opens up alien space ship and says welcome to earth and knocks out the evil alien (LOL)*

In "Life of Pi" well most of this movie was shot in 2D but then the director decided to shot in 3D and that added $50 million more dollars to budget, because he went and re-shot the entire 2D parts all over again with 3D Cameras and then shot the rest of the movie in 3D also. So 100% of movies like Life if Oi & G.i. Joe 2 which are some of the movies you are referring to, where shot 100% in 3D, as well as those other semi shot in 2D movies which were done all over again from start to finish in 3D.
