Patch Poll: What Do You Think About 3D Movies?

According to www.440.com, today, Monday, marks the 127th anniversary of the production of the first commercial moving-picture film, made in Rochester, NY, by Eastman Kodak, the film and camera maker which still manufactures film from the same place.

Movies have come a long way since then. The December 2009 release of Avatar sparked new interest in 3D technology. Not everybody's thrilled with 3D. Last year, in his blog, Sun-Times movie critic Roger Ebert wrote that 3D "doesn't work with our brains and it never will. The notion that we are asked to pay a premium to witness an inferior and inherently brain-confusing image is outrageous."

What do you think about 3D movies? Will you be watching one this week?

Last week's Patch Poll asked: The forecast is for a violent spring. Do you think violent weather is linked to global warming?

No, responded 59 percent of poll takers; 40 percent said yes.

The that readers made to the poll debated a number of topics including the real or perceived existence of global warming and what science has gotten right or wrong in the past.
