Vintage Roger Ebert from Newsweek back in 2010: “Why I Hate 3-D (And You Should Too)”

This is a particularly eloquent and thoughtful criticism of 3D from a famous lover of films. Film critic, historian, and beloved blogger Roger Ebert summarizes the shortcomings of 3D from his point of view: venal Hollywood studios squeezing extra money out of audiences, charging premium prices for sub-premium product, compromised light levels, not suited to adult storytelling, headaches/nausea, nefarious equipment vendors trying to make a buck, and more.

Ebert cares passionately about film and makes an excellent case for higher frame rates, as well as better quality storytelling.
