Default Its not a gimmick

I don't understand people calling 3D a gimmick. I think movies like Avatar and How to Train Your Dragon show its not a gimmick.
People seem to base some of their thoughts on past technology like blue and red glasses that destroyed the color palette of a movie, which is no more with the new technology.
People here had NO problem upgrading TV's, speakers, recievers and dvd playes to Hi Def for added resolution in both picture and sound, but now people have a problem with upgrading to add another dimension to their picture? So, upgrading TV's for increased resolution is legit, but upgrading a TV for 3D adding another dimension is not cool? Makes no sense. People are either mad or jealous that they got a tv and now can't afford/or wont be buying another tv for a few yrs, thus they won't be able to experience 3D in their home for years to come.
Any 3D is quite popular, recently I have seen Avatar, Alice in Wonderland and HTTYD in 3D and their was a huge line for each one. And the 3D will keep coming with Clash of the Titans and Toy Story 3 and I'm sure there will be plenty more.
We have always mimiced the movie theatre- First we got VHS which brought movies to the home, then we added surround sound systems to mimic the theatre, now we have HD screens to mimic the quality at the theatres and HD sound so we can play the same studio master in our own home. People clearly have always wanted the theatre experience at home, and now that will slowly happen with 3D. The new 3D technology is clearly a success with 3D movies making record amounts and people willing to line up and pay extra for 3D, and eventually people will want this in their home, and with Panasonic showing 3D effects atleast as good if not better than the theatres expect it to catch peoples eyes. Right now the tvs and glasses are expensive, but just like regular HD tvs this will all come down and price and before you know it every tv will have a 3D option built in cause we all know the 3D tvs play a great 2d picture.
