I currently ordered a new 3DTV that features 2D to 3D, you can convert anything to 3D, if you have this feature what movies have you watched that would never be released in 3D?
I've been thinking of what movies I would watch and I'm thinking of: >Freaky Friday (2003) >Mean Girls >The House Bunny and I was thinking that Kick-Ass and Machete might look good in 3D. I'm probably going to watch everything in 3D as I really enjoy 3D and I don't care if it's not how it was original intended to be made, I just love 3D.

I thought I would use the 2D->3D feature on my bluray player (which came with great reviews by the way) and after just one movie I got tired of it. Its rarely perfect and gives me eyestrain that I dont normally get with native 3D or the good conversions out there. I decided its better to keep the 3D novelty alive by restricting it to these instead of using that feature on my player.

If I ever use 2D-3D conversion, I do it on a really low depth setting. That way I can appreciate the instances where it gets something right without having all the errors flung right in my face in an obvious manner. Plus I seem to get some sort of "placebo effect" just from having the glasses on.
I usually stick to goofy actiony stuff like old Power Rangers DVDs. |

That will soon fade, 1 year ago my wife hated me because I converted everything, but you'll eventually realize you're not watching 3d, but a conversion algorithm catastrophe.
Or maybe you won't, but I went from "CONVERT ALL THE THINGS!!" to "meh, let's convert some of the things..." to "Why is the sky poking out, it's backdrop.. man this kind of sucks". I will second that a very minimal depth setting will get you the maximum results when watching the 2d-3d function. As to stay on topic, I got drunk one night and watched "RAD" converted, the old BMX cult classic from the 80's lol. I bought a copy off of ebay a few years back (still have my original VHS but, well you know..), it had a remastered video and audio quality - fan created of course since the flick never actually went to DVD or anything greater but it's definitely clean. Needless to say Cru Jones backflip out of the kix bowl did not land in my living room, more on an incorrectly inverted converted bubble of a dirt mound on Hell Track. |

I pretty much looked at Attack of the Clones entirely in TV converted 3D. It was about the same quality that the professionally converted Phantom Menace was, as sad as that is to say.
Haven't tried it with much else, aside from testing it on the first Transformers.

My 3D TV doesn't have an auto convert feature but my Blu-Ray player does. All it does it push the 2D image back into the screen a little and it curves it a bit, kind of like those crappy German fake 3D BDs. I imagine the auto convert feature on 3D TVs looks like the YouTube auto convert feature.

I tried a bit of the 2D to 3D conversion on my projector for Fellowship of the Ring and it looked really good. Although, I did notice that there was some kind of slight flicker/pulse going on that doesn't happen with actual 3D blu-ray discs. So, I'm not sure how long I could watch a movie with the conversion on.
