The real problem with 3D is much like the problem with hearing 'whispers' behind you with surround sound... I go from being immersed in the movie to being rudely reminded that I am in a cinema watching a movie. Until the experience is something that doesn't announce the technology it's only ever going to be a gimmick and, in terms of my connection to the story/character/situation, I'd much rather lesser quality simulation with greater emotional connection and persistent immersion than something 'technically' better.
