3D designed for the original IMAX screens found at amusement parks, zoos, etc. was god-tier. And really, those old-school IMAX's are far superior to the commercialized AMC Theaters crap we have now. Seriously, when AMC bought my town's theater they just took the largest screen - which is just otherwise a standard cinema screen but enlarged for marquee blockbusters - and slapped the IMAX logo on it.

Funny you mention that - back at Disney World, circa late 90s, one of their 3D experiences was "Honey I shrunk the Audience" It also had the tech like the used for Alien Encounter and the Stitch Experience and I remember it being DOPE AF. Basically to add to your point - it works for specific venues offering a unique experience, with it being in 3D as only PART of that. Even they know if it's just 3D it'll get old and boring so they add other stuff to it..

They use one projector with a dual lens setup where one lens is reflected of a mirror and combined with the other image on screen then the glasses put this images together. If you watch the film without the glasses it blurry but you can see there’s two images of you cover you left eye the right side of the screen comes into focus and same if you cover your right eye all the glasses do is combine both images into one. The 3D projectors have to be brighter though or else wearing the passive glasses would make the image too dark because you are looking through a filter on the glasses.

It's a bummer that 3d didn't catch on, especially in gaming because some of the games I played in 3d were amazing. Portal 2 in 3d was one of my favorite gaming experiences ever. But I know the main reason it died was that a fair number of people get instant headaches from the illusion, and will do anything to avoid it.

I think my favorite and best 3D game experiences before VR were with the Dead Space series on the PC with Nvidia 3D, that feature just somehow natively worked so well with Dead Space. Most other games worked very well too, I still have the 3D kit but the Acer monitor bit the dust years ago.

It looked amazing, but years later, it's unwatchable on a television, and the plot is just agonizing to me, of course. RedLetterMedia made a joke that films today are basically rollercoaster rides or funhouses, and Martin Scorsese said basically the same thing. Once you experience that a few times, the experience wears off pretty quickly. Imagine being on a roller coaster for 2 hours. That was Avatar for me. I find I have no desire to go on the ride again, even if it was 3D.

I remember that E3 when the 3DS was announced, Nintendo showed their glasses-free 3d glasses and an hour later sony was in their ps3 event trying to sell you 3d tvs, and every time a trailer dropped people were told to put their glasses on and off all the time, Nintendo dated the 3d tv experience in a matter of an hour, it was crazy. I loved my 3ds, playing with 3d enabled was great in the games where the devs actually cared about a good implementation, like Super Mario 3D land and Kid Icarus Uprising, but most of the time the devs didn't want to invest on it. Oh, Metal Gear Solid 3D was pretty good as well, even with it's choppy framerate.

Our eyes are still trying to combine what each eye sees as if it were 3d, but when they're both seeing the exact same thing, despite the distance between them? And that thing is simulating a 3d environment on a 2d plane? It actually gives us less useful information about distances than just closing one eye. It immediately creates barriers to immersion, and it adds an extra layer of difficulty to accurately judging jumps and range in gaming.

i was the polar opposite even as a kid. It's almost always looked worse than 2D unless the filmmakers sink a ton of money into being 3D, but since they were making methods to easily convert 2D to 3D without all that cost the filmmakers had little incentive to do so outside of AAA titles like Avatar. Add that to the fact that many people get headaches regardless of the quality, get sick of the effect quickly, or suffer the inherent added eye strain and it's not hard to see why it would never be anything but a gimmick or niche service. I was one of those weirdos who saw Avatar in theaters multiple times and on my second viewing I noticed many of the people taking off their glasses periodically because they were bothered by the effect. If people would pay extra and still rather watch a darker blurrier version of the greatest 3D film of all time then lower quality products in the home market would likely die as well. The same happened with the 3Ds, I saw the hype and thought about getting one but then heard all my friends say they were turning the setting off and their parents were pissed they paid extra for something their kids got sick of quickly. I feel the same way about 4K, UHD, and 8K too, there are just too many inherent flaws like high price, slower download speeds, more data demands, and all for only a marginal increase in quality. Anything after 2D 1080p is so hard to notice that people arent likely to care much. We're already starting to hit a wall where the marginal increase in perceived quality form 1080p to 4K isnt worth the slow downloads, streaming issues, and higher data costs and the quadrupling of all those problems from 4K to 8K is even worse.

I've never been able to see 3D due to having basically no central vision in one eye due to severe scarring as a newborn, so the whole 3D/VR fad just seems so alien to me. I remember buying one of those cyan/blue glasses 3D books at Space Center Houston and being absolutely heartbroken that I couldn't see it right. I sat in my room staring at it for ages trying to get it to work. I went with my parents & friends to a 3D movie at some sort of science/history museum and couldn't see it either. I bought a 3DS and eventually a New™ 3DS and neither of those worked too. Needless to say, I'm not holding my breath for VR. The only type of "3D" I've been able to legitimately see are those "split-depth 3D" GIFs that used to be all over Imgur and stuff years ago. Granted, I don't know if that's "true" 3D, but like, it feels 3D to me, if that makes any sense.

I've always liked 3D and honestly I preferred playing games in 3D on the 3DS, like you said it added more immersion and also it literally gives more depth making it easy to play a lot of the games. For Dead or Alive 4 on the 3DS, you do a lot of side stepping in that game and because of the angle of the games camera it's easier to play it in 3D imo.

I believe we were already one of the last ones (if not THE last one) standing by then, and the bosses thought that was a good thing because we'd pick up all the content the other services had abandoned along the way. Oh man. I can't begin to tell you how much of a financial disaster that was. Our service was available across the entire North American continent, yet we probably had about as many daily rentals as the average Blockbuster location (and I'm talking about the 2013 Blockbuster, too). I saw the writing on the wall and skedaddled. They went out of business about a year and a half later.

The issue with 3D media is that it goes against the basic purpose of media in general. Directors, animators, and cinematographers spend months and even years carefully planning what is going to appear in the frame and be the focus for the audience. It's a delicate art of guiding the eye around the frame to tell a story or convey an emotion. The audience can sit back and have information be thrown at them while they passively observe. On the other hand, 3D media works best when it gives the viewer time and space to freely look around on their own and discover things. The viewer has to be active to get the best experience, and the story has to take a backseat. Most viewers don't want to be active when viewing media, and most popular movies are not made to indulge this style. Videogames come a lot closer to matching this style, but they have expanded on this in the form of VR instead of 3D screens, and while VR works for some games, I don't' think it would work with movies at all. When was the last time you heard about a movie made for VR? The technology will never be good enough for 3D movies. Even if we had screens that functioned like windows that could give different perspectives based on the viewing angle, or even if we developed fully functional Star Trek holodecks that you could walk into without needing to wear any peripherals, it still would be inferior to the flat screen for viewing media.

If you were to for example abandon the idea of a single screen being used for the 3D media and instead project an image to each persons eyes watching the movie individually, you could ensure that they all see exactly the same thing when they view the 3D media. There would be no viewing angle issues because each eye gets the same image sent to it regardless of angle , and it wouldn't require you to walk around or move or anything and the director can be certain that everybody is having the viewing experience they intended for them to have. It'd be just like 2D media, except you can see the depth of the scenes.

I agree when it comes to fiction, but the documentary The Cave of forgotten dreams by Werner Herzog in 3D was one of the most beautiful experiences I had in a movie theater. I rewatched it on TV some time ago and enjoyed it, but in big screen 3D was really something else. I remember leaving the theater thinking "I never imagined something like this could be done with 3D, maybe there is future for non blockbuster movies in a 3D era". I guess it takes an absolute madman like Herzog to make it work

@@dominicstocker5144 It can depend. The first 3D movie I ever saw was in an IMAX theater--Wings of Courage. It had to do with a 1920s-era mail carrier who crashes in the Andes. So about the time he crashes, we have a shot of a woman's legs with fruit lying on the floor and a piece of paper. The camera slowly pans up to reveal the pilot's distressed wife, having just learned that her husband is missing. Powerful scene, well shot, but as I was watching it, I kept wanting to look up. Like pushing the camera--"Come on, come on, we get it, we're at her waist, hurry up!"

There have been improvements to 3D movies since then. A major issue with early 3D movies was keeping both eyes in sync, as they were often using two projectors showing two separate film reels. If the sync goes off it's head-ache inducing. Later films put both eyes on one strip of film, helping sync at the cost of resolution. There were also issues making sure each view was properly focused, lenses clean, etc. And film judder didn't help. Modern digital cameras and projectors make the 3D cleaner and smoother. Also, RealD and others started using circular polarization instead of linear polarization in the 2000s, which helped with ghosting and viewing angles. So 3D itself wasn't the innovation, but the ability to pack a 3D viewing mode into a home TV was, along with smaller innovations along the way making for an overall better 3D filming and viewing experience.

My biggest issue with 3D has always been the head-aches. I watched a few 3D movies in theater back around 2013, and I got a head-ache every time. The first couple go-a rounds I figured maybe I just hadn't been drinking enough water. But then I started to notice the pattern, and I made the decision to opt out of any 3D movies in the future. The spectacle of 3D was fun, but it stopped being enjoyable when I realized it was giving me a hangover that ruined the rest of my day...

I have a BenQ 4K projector that uses DLP active glasses, and I have a Sony Blu-ray player that upconverts DVDs and Blu-rays to 4K, so the 3D movies on my 110" screen are stunning. That is my final point - it is hard to get the impact that 3D can provide on a small TV - you need the theater or a 3D projector for it to truly shine.

Once people realize this the fad dies down and they'd rather just watch a movie normally. Also a lot of people prefer to do more than one thing while watching TV so having to be constantly staring at the screen from a specific angle kills it.

The LG one is so much better as it uses the same glasses that theatres use, rather than the ones with the battery powered glasses which were so bad for getting headaches, plus, if the batteries died you had to find the right size battery to stick in it (I think it was a watch battery). And ugh, turning 2D movies into 3D, such as on Netflix, it was really bad, like so bad that things would be going the wrong direction. It was really hard to buy 3D movies as not too many were made, and then 3D 4K movies were pretty much non-existant and 3x the price. I do miss 3D as I can't wear VR headsets due to astigmatism (the technology in contact lenses isn't quite good enough), and I found 3D was really useful for games especially catching flying things in Animal Crossing, which I really missed during Festivale, with those feathers floating around and I had no concept of where they were.

Once my dad got the passive kind (he had active before and it wasn't great), I just kept glasses from the theatre to use at home so we wouldn't run out. The blu-rays were really hard to find though, especially in Canada as we only really had HMV, and Best Buy that would sell them. Now my dad just gets the regular blu-ray disks from the library for free. I did like it as a kid/teen for some of the animated ones. Despicable Me and How To Train Your Dragon had great 3D effects, and if you ever get to see Coraline in 3D (it came with my dad's blu-ray player), the 3D just makes it all the more haunting, and it was so good

My first LCD "flat screen" tv was a 720p 32 inch for almost $2,000. Then my next smart TV was like $700 for a 50 inch 1080p TV. The 3D market was GREAT for people who didn't adopt it hahah then I got a 42 inch 4K for like $250 haha the entire market has been insane for so long that if you could stay one step behind the next big fad you could get a TV for a fraction of what the last generation went for at launch.

I booted up my New 3DS XL for the first time in years since Nintendo was shutting down the eshop. I forgot how good the glasses free 3D effect really was on this system. It just works, in almost any lighting conditions. That being said, the best feature Nintendo included on the system is a way to turn the 3D off.

My 1080p 42" TV broke after 8 years of daily use. I bought it for 699$ back then. I could now buy a 55" 4K smart TV for the same price, but I thought, "do I need this?" "Do I even want this?" It's kind of embarrassing to have such a big fancy TV in the apartment, it takes a lot of presence and I don't want visitors to think, that sitting on my butt and stare in a box is that important to me. Also, I just see no difference between 1080p and 4K, except when I'm standing inches away from the screen. So I bought a new 1080p 42" TV, for just 249$ and an Oculus Quest VR headset, where I can sit in a cinema with a screen the size of a football field and watch 3D Movies without a headache. Also the games are awesome, Half-Life Alyx is out of this world!

Around this time I worked at a Sears in the tool department. On slow days the electronic guys would come over and say “ you gotta come check out the 3D TV’s. I would sneak over and was really intrigued. The glasses sucked because I already wear glasses. After about 5 minutes I would admit that it was cool but stagger away with a headache. I didn’t have the money for one, nor did I really want one. I never really thought bout them again and they faded away. Thank you for the video.

Someone finally hit the nail on the head that it was mainly to sell TV’s! It was always a gimmick just like curved TV’s were and quattron displays. Just buying time till OLED could be made bigger and finally 4K was affordable. Broadcasters really got caught up in the hype and lost a fair bit trying to make 3D production and broadcast workflows because you couldn’t use a traditional 2D broadcasting methods.

For forever, companies have been looking for more and more ways of fleecing just a bit more for every iteration of change. Razor manufacturers charge $4 per blade adding a new blade every couple of years, toothbrush manufacturers charge more for the ever more stupid "whitening" version, and you guessed it, media companies want to charge more for their entertainment than they did last year.

I use my LG 3D TV that I bought in 2012 nearly everyday. One of the biggest factors was Avatar being exclusively being given away with only one 3D TV manufacter. Active shutter glasses made it impossible to watch anything with a group without paying an enormous amount on each pair of glasses. I have watched this "gimmick" come and go for decades and now with a VR headset you can privately watch a 3D movie without any glasses required. You also see the screen in the size of your choice. I have show plenty of people my 3D TV and I still get people who love it. This sounds a lot like what I have heard for decades about VR. I admit it doesn't add anything to a film but it's still enjoyable to watch a film where you get a sense of scale and depth. It's no more a "gimmick" as the VR craze that keeps coming back every decade or so.

​@@PiousMoltarYeah, it's actually a perfect comparison. People think 3D is a gimmick because naturally it becomes less novel over time, but things like sound and color also became much less novel over time as well, to the point that there is virtually no novelty to them. 3D isn't meant to make you jump out of your seat every 30 seconds, it adds realism and substance to the image, a feeling that what's on screen actually occupies physical space, and like color or sound, the viewer shouldn't be explicitly paying attention to it unless it's important to plot or gameplay. If 3D becomes mundane over time, that means that the technology is well developed, because it's becoming a seamless part of the viewing experience. Going from 3D to 2D viewing, to me, feels like going from color to monotone, and except for the hassle of glasses-based displays, I really can't understand why more consumers weren't on board with it, except that there is a fundamental misunderstanding of the purpose of the technology

1:00 *the Cycles of 3D* This isn't really the case. The reason 3D is trotted out periodically is when certain industries need a gimmicks to attract viewers back to their venues. Like when TV first arrived and threatened theatres. A lot of gimmicks were tried at the time, widescreen ended up being what they settled on, as TVs were still 4x3 but 3D was one of the many gimmicks that were mildly successful. I believe it happened again once colour TV started to be more wide spread a decade or so later.

I was just thinking about the death of 3D TVs the other day, weird you did a video on it right after. The one place where 3D is still technically alive is in VR headsets. So far their adoption seems to be in a holding pattern, not quite dead, but not rapidly growing either. The Valve Index is close to my ideal but the cost needs to drop and maybe one more spec bump would be appreciated.

Cardboard was nice with my UHD Xperia ZX Premium second hand for 300 euro because the XA1 lacked some sensors despite websites claiming it had them. Only problems were weight, heat, speed, and controls. I bought VR Quake but don't remember it working. It should be possible to stream to a light plastic phone like a Huawei, without sickening lag or terrible controls. Just pipe in 3D display data and pipe out positioning so you can look around using your head.

VR is far from a holding pattern. I mean, Oculus sold 7 million Quest2's in 2021. In the same year, monthly-active VR headsets on Steam grew beyond 3 million, so people are actually using them (and note, those two groups aren't necessarily the same, because it's a lot more work to use a Quest on Steam than other VR headsets - I think I read that 35% of the VR headsets on Steam are Quest or Quest 2).
