I got to see No Way Home this weekend, and the ONLY option I had for 3D was on a smaller screen (at my Showcase theater that has much better screens). And it was so dim and even slightly blue tinted that I could barely see the screen, let alone the 3D effects, which were minimal.

The stand out 3D moments were possibly on the bridge Ock scene, when Peter is standing in the rain, and the last moments. I also caught a few of Electro's bolts and the Strange sequence was okay, but it was NOTHING compared to the 3D in Doctor Strange.
Maybe it was the poorly lit projection in my theater and the fact that I could barely see anything in any darker scene, or it was the 3D. I just regret going to see it in 3D now since I could have seen it in a much better theater in 2D where the dimness wasn't a constant distraction. If they were to release this on 3D bluray, I'm certain it would look so much better on a 3D OLED at home. Oh, well.

Oh, and the person who posted that one spoiler scene a little more than halfway through the film, here that spoiled it for me, mentioning that spoiler had nothing to do with the 3D, nor was there much 3D in that moment. The only 3D before it was some electric bolts.

Personally, and it's not the popular opinion, but I wasn't crazy about the film. It was okay. Maybe it was the lower quality and having been spoiled for a certain scene, but I felt that some scenes were cut away too quickly, there wasn't enough time spent on certain villains (with SO MUCH of them being shown in trailers), the mid-credit scene upset me a bit, and the greatest highlight for me was the last 30mins for reasons I won't discuss here. For me, the original five films still far exceed this one, and I even enjoyed Homecoming more than this one....not to mention the 3D in that film was "Amazing". For the new films, nothing will beat the scene where Peter goes to pick up his prom date or the drive to the prom! Or even Mysterio's trippy sequence in Far From Home.

Overall, I felt that the 3D was on par with Venom 2 (and even Jumanji 2), maybe the reason they won't bother to release it. And if I didn't know better, I would swear that they ran these two films through an AI 3D program rather than work through it scene by scene, and frame by frame. Shang-Chi (which I just got to watch at home in 3D) was fantastic use of 3D! (And I actually got into the film a bit more than No Way Home).

Since the only chance for a 3D is RandomSpaceMedia, and that's a coin toss, it looks like 3D Bluray for this is not a great possibility...Sony doesn't like money that much I guess. At least WB does.
