Im looking to watch more 3D Movies as ive only seen 3 and I want to know which ones should I definitely see and which ones should I avoid, the quality of the Movie doesn't matter too much so suggest any Movie that has very good 3D, Also tell me what has awful 3D too from your experience.

From the 3D Movies ive seen this is how the 3D was for me,

- Thor - 3D was ok, the long distance shots looked good
- The Green Hornet - some parts looked good in 3D
- The Last Airbender - very poor 3D (the reason I created this thread)

All suggestions are welcome

Last games completed: - Crysis 2 (360), - Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3)

After Hugo and Tintin, all other 3D films look like the filmmakers did not put in any effort. ( I don't have Avatar, and Prometheus is not out yet ).

How to Train your Dragon and the two Kung Fu Pandas are awesome enough. But still nowhere near as breathtaking as Hugo and Tintin ( projected on big size screen ).

If you have a good home projection set up, try Hugo. Just be warned that other 3D films will look like crap after that experience, including ones that are shot natively, like Pirates 4. I'm not dissing it. For Pirates 4, and Transformers 3 ( both films which I don't like ), between 2D and 3D, I'll still pick 3D. But, they are just not as good as what's being shown as possible, by Hugo and Tintin. Pirates 4's 3D is pretty terrible. At least the Transformers crew tried.

John Carter 3D is really, really bad. For that film, I'd rather watch it in 2D. But to watch Tintin in 2D, would be missing half the film. And to watch Hugo in 2D, is an atrocity. It should be banned, and I did see Hugo in 2D first.

With "Tintin", missing all of the movie would be a good idea.

Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole looks stunning.
Dredd is supposed to look great too.Slow motion 3D looks great I read in one review.We'll know more about that one in the next week.
