![A 3D movie crowd](https://web.archive.org/web/20101112140419im_/http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/10/3d_movie.jpg)
All this talk of
3-D television has really puzzled me. It seems the companies are pushing more for the technology than the customers actually want it. It's the debut of the Toyota Prius all over again.
Television manufacturers are hoping the onslaught of 3-D movies, such as
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, will increase the whisper-level clamors for 3-D televisions. The TVs should be in stores next year.
To me, the two experiences are almost completely different. 3-D films work in the theaters because the audience is forced to look at the screen, whereas TV is a completely voluntary viewing experience. If there is a way to utilize the technology to enhance the experience on more than just a visual level, like Comedy Central's first-person junk-joke-fest
Secret Girlfriend, then maybe you've got gold.
