We did get to see it at the IMAX in 3D and it was awesome. First movie we've paid full price to see in many years and it was well worth it. I'd go see part 2 if it comes out. We also bought the DVD and watched it. The 3D was better but even without it it was a great movie.

I'm afraid to take my husband to see ANYTHING in 3D because he has a history of vertigo and he was diagnosed with menieres a long time ago. Thankfully he hasn't had any vertigo symptoms since long ago, but I'm not taking any chances.

I actually read that some people SHOULD NEVER watch anything in 3D and people with vertigo was one of them. It has something to do with changing the way the brain perceives the 3d image.

Now I haven't seen any 3D anything since I saw Michael Jackson's 3D thing WAY back when I went to Disneyworld over 25 years ago.

AND THAT WAS SOMETHING TO SEE.

We were sitting in our seats wearing the glasses (that you hand back to the staff as you exit the building).

What a thrilling thing to behold. Everything was floating in the air right in front of us.

We were laughing and I remember it like it was yesterday. As the images came at us, we were jumping out of our seats, and I remember taking my hands and moving them in front of me because THINGS WERE FLOATING IN THE AIR IN FRONT OF ME.

I would definitely go and see a 3D show of anything. But I won't go alone, and I can't take Alan.

So I'll just watch in plain ordinary 2D.

bye for now.

Melody

Melody - I did have a few waves of dizziness during the movie. Usually when there was action taking place literally right in front of me. I haven't been to a 3D in forever so it was definitely an experience. We were prepared for me to get sick and have to leave but luckily I didn't have to. The movie attendant spoke before the movie and explained that some can get dizzy, etc., and what to do in that case.

And what did the attendant tell you to do in that case???

lol

P.S. I'm imagining when all the new 3D tv's start to become popular and a great many families start to buy them, and the kids start watching tv after dinner.

And then everyone barfs.

Oh my god, I can just see this happening.

I'm not going after I read what you wrote.
I do NOT like getting dizzy for any reason.
