# So does this new-fangled 3D work then?
watching Flesh for Frankenstein on C4 the other night, it seemed to all be in sepia, and gave me a headache, but it worked... sort of, even if the 3D effects were all a bit blurry.

I've not seen anything NEW in 3D

# In the cinema it works through polarisation with 2 projectors and polarised lenses, so you get full colour - it looks really good (just as long as you keep your head straight and don't move about too much :P)
On telly it's not quite that easy and therefore, looks a bit poo.

So everything is darker and less vibrant than normal, but its better than the sepia look of old.

Which is why I'd rather watch the film in 2d. But its not being described as a film its a rollercoaster - just without the excitement, vibration and wind, and with lost of long story bits.
