I have been stereoblind for my entire life, I see the world as you would with one eye. As 3D is becomeing more and more mainstream, I keep wondering how much I am missing out. Maybe some day movies will not come onut in 2D anymore.
Isn't it higher than 30% that can not see in 3D? So I doubt they will fully implement 3D for everything. Plus, some people get eye strain when seeing something in 3D for a long time.
So you're not really missing out on much. It's not jaw dropping effects or anything.
Your missing out on the headaches...
3D is a massive waste of time to me. The headache, The red and grennish blue blur on the screen, The wierd feeling you get when something is to close to your face... You should consider yourself lucky.

Is that what its called? "Stereoblind"?
Didn't think there was a specific term for it, but whatever. I guess that's something we share.
And don't worry about 2D movies.
Most 3D movies were filmed in 2D and converted to 3D for inflation.
Less work and more money if they release a 2D version to co-exist
When I first was going to see a 3D movie I thought it was going to be mind blowing. But what it really was? Annoying and nothing special. It hurts my eyes too.
3D is gimmicky, I watch The Avengers at the midnight release in 3D because they made a mistake so we got a free upgrade.
Seriously, it is a film technique, the things about film techniques is you AREN'T supposed to notice them, with 3D you notice it.
Like in panning shots you HAVE to focus on the main part of the shot, no having a look in the background to take in the entire scene.
And as others have said, headaches. I didn't get mine until after I'd finished watching the film and we got home. But it was a killer one.

Opinions are like armpits. Everyone has one and some stink, now if someone says your armpits stink it isn't very polite to go rubbing it in their face, it isn't going to make them say yours doesn't stink it'll just make them dislike you and your armpit even more. Remember keep your armpits and opinions respectful.
I think just about everyone is missing a significant chunk of what's going on here. This doesn't only effect 3D movies! This effects everything in his life. This means that if you were to throw an object at his face in real life, it would be extremely difficult for him to know when it will hit him. It would also be very difficult to drive, etc.
So in summary, yes, you are missing a lot. Depth perception is an amazing sense. It is what separates real life apart from looking at a photo.

Well the OP was talking about 3D movies, games, and whatnot, so the conversation would naturally lean towards that.

You aren't missing much aside from the relief of taking off the glasses.

In fact (to those who can watch stuff in 3D), don't bother buying those 3D TVs.

I'd rather watch digital instead of wearing stupid glasses that doesn't really enhance my view of the movies.
Can barely tell the difference.

Guys, stop trying to cheer up the poor soul who can't watch amazing, spectacular, FANTASHTIC 3D movies. We can all be honest.
Viewer experience may vary.

Trust me, you're not missing out on much at all.
Yes, you would lack depth-perception, however, you learn to calculate distances quite easily.
More like 2.7%.
