Op-ed: 3D or not to 3D- Virtual Me

Staff Writer: Grave Digger

Questions about movies aren't about substance or talent these days. Instead people are debating whether or not their film should be in 3D.

Here's a clue: I don't want my movies to reach out and touch me.

I want to be entertained. I want to be transfixed. I don't want to be slapped, banged, and hauled around.

Don't get me wrong, 3D technology can be fun. Disney features, theme park rides, etc.

However, when I go tot he movie theater and sit with my drink and popcorn in hand, I don't want to wear my concession stand goodies.

So this op-ed is short: give the audience a choice. do a screen in regular and 3D. One might be more popular than another but at least for us traditionalists, we'll be able to spend our money in the market place too.
