3D Bluray players and Tvs

How so is it a gimmick? Keep dreaming Jwm...thats a helluva
gimmick worth billions of dollars. All video card makers are
on the bandwagon. The largest movie studios and game
makers have already come on board.

Movie studios grossed more this year than any in history
because of 3D.

I do not want to be burned again. We may need new AVRs with HDMI 1.4 capable not including new 3D BR player. No doubt that the gaming industry and the porn movie industry will embraced the new tech.

I have a bad feeling that the 3D technology is here to stay. ESPN, Disney, Direct TV have made some commitments to support the new format.

Samsung already comes out the new AVR with HDMI1.4 capable for 3D.

Call me old fashion if you will but it may be a good time to buy some top of the line AVRs from Pio, Denon, Onkyo at 1/3 price real soon.

Sure it's a fad.......right...hmmmm, the NFL in 3D? Discovery channel 3D...yup, it's a fad, no doubt.....

Mono
Stereo
Multichannel
A/V
3D

They'll always be someone who says no...

3D is here to stay I'm sure until holographic TV takes it's place.
I have a couple of 3D movies that I have watched on the TV and DVD player I now own.

I thought Bluray was a big improvement over DVD. I am not yet convinced by early demonstrations I have seen that the 3D "experience" is more enjoyabble. Avatar was spectacular in 3D IMAX, but the medium does not translate well to the smaller screen and the living room. Good luck to the Manufacturers on this one. Remember Quadraphonic???
