For example, Avatar, one of the best looking movies I've ever seen and it looked great in 3D since the movie was made with 3D in mind. The proplem with 3D comes when the producers suddenly in after-production goes, "Do you know what would make this movie much better? If we made it 3D." And then they just add a shitty 3D effect with a computer. But still, I doubt 3D is a priority at Frictional Games.
Avatar's framerate was also very low especially in the "impressive" scenes. Okay, it looked pretty kickass, I admit, but the runtime was like almost 3 hours. Apart from the movie being extremely boring you can't expect someone to sit through a movie in 3D for that long. You have to focus really hard just to see what's going on, which makes most people nauseous and at least gives them a minor headache. Is it really worth it?
