3D will be the death of cinema.
I remember the good old days, none of these colour talkies, when movies were movies.
Only colour and talkies actually came to use and this is nothing but a gimmick that has already failed twice and proved useless to the films.
There was a time before technicolour where filmmakers painted each frame to create colour films (e.g. some of Melies' shorts). Maybe the 3D of the past was this and now we get the 3D where is works beautifully?
You of course will not know since you won't be seeing Avatar in 3D. 
Good point on matte paintings, you lose points for mentioning Melies (he is great mind you, but he was in the 20-30s) and not a better example like Amytiville, Jaws 3D, Dail M For Murder, you know, where they actually used 3D. but it still doesn't make the technology no less painful, headache inducing, gimmicky nonsense. And judging by some responses read on Avatar Day, it really can worsen the experience.
Actually I don't think I'm even watching Avatar in 2D in the cinemas, the more I look at it and read about it the far worse it looks and looks like another soul sucking self-indulgent exercise for Cameron to play with technologies and think he's an artist.

I understand the purpose of 3D is to provide an immersive experience but for me it's distracting and takes me out of the film.
And that is what makes it so damned useless and pointless, it is as if it is made to make a film experience immersive, as if film wasn't immersive without such gimmicks. As if The Dark Knight would be better with 3D.
