Royal Caribbean 3D advertising

It looks like Royal Caribbean is going to advertise in 3D in England.

They have come up 3D ads to run in movie theaters showing AVATAR in 3D.

OK... so I'm a geek for 3D movies. I've already seen Avatar and liked
it a lot. As the 3D technology gets better and better, I am sure we
will see more of this kind of advertising. For now, only people in the
UK will see this ad, but down the road, I'm sure it will become popular
here as well.

Hi George,

I remember well the red and green glasses in the 1950's for the 3D movie
craze. I hope this new incarnation is enough to entertain you, but I really
don't want it to catch on. I own a video production company and we have
gone from video tape to DVD to HD to Blu Ray, flat screen and wide screen
and I don't need another set of new equipment. Want to buy 20 or 30 VTR's
or old style TV sets? They make good boat anchors. Have fun with 3D.

ESPN said yesterday that they were going to start a 3D channel with
the World Cup being the first broadcast. Also Sony is showing a 3D TV
prototype at CES today in LV. Get ready to own a whole bunch of new
boat anchors (g)

I liked Avatar a lot too but the 3D was somewhat diverting from the
movie. I think I would have enjoyed that Avatar in 2D.

There is always going to be some new technology replacing the old. And
of course they hope to make a lot of money convincing us to but new 3D
TV's after we just upgraded to HD TV's!!!

I hope that someday there will be 3D without the glasses since wearing
glasses does not seem like the ideal solution but the glasses they are
using now have come a long way. I saw Avatar in Real 3D and the glasses
were not the red and green glasses. As I understand it they were
polarized glasses and both lenses were the same color. Lot better than
those old glasses. As I said in the earlier post the 3D was somewhat
diverting in this movie for me. I was looking at the effects rather the
usual immersion in the movie. The trailer for the 3D Shrek looked a lot
cooler to me.

When I was a student at the University of South Carolina, Dr. Porter
McLaren had been working on a 3-D television prototype. This was back
in 1979. With his prototype, the cameras were binocular, and used the
blanking period to produce a 3-D image on normal big old fashioned TV
sets. The only drawback was that the picture tended to hop up and down
a little. Too bad he passed away. With todays technology and digital
imaging a computer chip in a binocular camera could have stabilized the
picture and new 3-D televisions would not be required. As they used to
say, NERTZ! :-(

The Sony is around 20Large. Not even ready for bleeding edge
adopters. And with folks just now having adopted HD I don't think 3D
is likely to catch on any time soon.

And, realisticly, how much of what we see as "HD" really is? Watch
HG-TV HD. I get a headache on some segments due to the fish-eye
affect from reverse pan&scan.

Watch Discovery channel, and 99% of all live HD sports. HD
and 3D aren't necessary related, and I already have 3D in my
Home theater.
