How do you want to watch DOTM: 3D or 2D?

[LordCyrusOmega]

I voted 3D. If it was filmed that way then thats the way to see it. I'll have 2D on dvd so if i think I've missd something then I'll be able to rewatch.
It's all about the gimmck

Hasbro'd!

Yep, Transformers would be worth nothing without the interesting and fun gimmicks that are included with the toys. On their own, transforming robots are just boring.

[GoktimusPrime]

It depends... Transformers that are well engineered on their own can be enjoyed without extra gimmicks. And gimmicks are fine so long as it doesn't compromise the engineering and other factors of the toy.

Some toys are just fine without additional gimmicks (beyond transformation and weapons), e.g. 1984 Jazz. Other toys have gimmicks but are still great toys because the gimmick doesn't significantly compromise the design of the toy, e.g. Cybertron Downshift. Other toys suffer greatly because their design is sacrificed by the gimmick, e.g. Armada Scavenger.

For me, the movie viewing experience is 'compromised' by current 3D screening technology because often the image just looks blurry to me, or as i_amtrunks puts it, just not "crisp." And to me, the trade-off for 3D isn't worth it. But that's my personal preference.

I'm really hoping that 3D technology will improve in the future to make 3D images look sharper. Disneyland has 3D shows which look absolutely amazing (where you see (and feel) 3D characters fly about the theatre! )

It was a joke Gok. A lot of the time the gimmicks aren't really needed. Mech Alive and Rts come to mind.

The problem with 3D viewing is my eyes are given the illusion of depth perception and this gives me headaches when my eyes try to focus the blurry bits.
Those 3D movies at disneyland are a lot of fun, nothing like being shrunk down and sneezed on by a giant dog.

From the interviews he has given, I am getting the impression he has the same views as me when it comes to 3D: why make it 3D unless is makes sense and is done properly. From the wa he talked about it I can tell he is doing it to add to the visual experience rather than because it looks oober cool and shiz. And given the review of the 3D screening by the guy from way cool or something like that, I think the 3D will make dotm amazing

[Zippo]

2D for me ..

[loophole]

first time on 2D and if its good enough to see again i might see it in 3D

[Decepticon]

3D of course! Cant believe more people prefer 2D over 3D here

[janda the red]

3D & gold class....

i suffer from migraines...
watching it in 3D will no doubt give me one... but thats why they make mersyndol
(strong painkillers that'll fix almost anything!)
