No, you can't really. Well, you could but you really shouldn't. Without the glasses, the images are very blurry and watching it will be very strenuous for the eyes, causing you headaches at least. You could just go see a 2D version in cinemas but I figure you're probably asking this because your local theater doesn't show a 2D version of the movie, right?Goliath wrote:I have a question.

Okay, here comes: can you watch Toy Story 3 in 3D without watching it in 3D? I mean: if you take off the 3D-glasses, can you still watch it like a 'normal' film? Or is the film designed to only be watchable with the glasses on? (Does it even work with glasses anymore?)
I don't want to discuss why I prefer to watch the film in 2D. I just want to know.

No, the glasses you wear sort of "merges" two separate images, and without them those images on the screen will look doubled and out of focus, like this example: http://www.atu2blog.com/wp-content/uplo ... lasses.jpgGoliath wrote:I have a question.

You guessed it right. Didn't they show the movie in 2D in the US?sotiris2006 wrote:You could just go see a 2D version in cinemas but I figure you're probably asking this because your local theater doesn't show a 2D version of the movie, right?
Shouldn't people have a choice how they want to see the film? I would love to see the film in the theater and I have been looking forward to it, but I'd hate to see it in 3D.
Yeah, it was show in 2D. In the town nearest of me there are two theaters. One plays the movie in 2D, the other in 3D.Goliath wrote:You guessed it right.

I don't mind 3D that much, but it does suck that movie goers don't get to have a say on what they want to see.
Indeed. I remember Toy Story from when I was a little kid, and have seen it (and its sequel) many times on home video since then. It wouldn't be Toy Story to me, if I couldn't see it the way I saw the previous two films. Call me sentimental, but I really feel that way. I just want to see a good film; I don't need to be 'impressed' with all kind of gimmicks and gadgets... (No, I'm not 80 years old.)pap64 wrote:I don't mind 3D that much, but it does suck that movie goers don't get to have a say on what they want to see.

It seems the only way I can watch it in 2D in cinemas is in the Dutch dubbing.

I just found the greatest review of TS3 that, I think, totally sums it all up, from a commenter on Disney Film Project.....

You heard it here, folks! I too, cried similar babies at all of the handsome moments. Object uncastrated period, indeed. Chew on that, "Shrek the Bag."The Commenter wrote:without a question the somebody flick of period and period, this film prefab toy tale 1 and 2 face like shrek the bag, yea its that peachy! me and my girlfriend went to go see this at the perform and we both cried similar babies. I grew up to toy prevarication, i grew up with andy, and its truly unbelievable how pixar can flowing the emotions from sad to singular without devastation any handsome moments 10/10. I anticipate a Multi- Award Person here! If you need to cry go see Toy story 3 and rebound jonah hex and karate kid and A aggroup! P: i wish this is not the end of toy tarradiddle if it is i module DIE, btw, barbie and ken made me burst out laughter the object uncastrated period!!

I thought the EXACT same thing when I was deciding whether or not to watch it in 3D. In the end, 2D was a good choice. I will never know how the 3D showing would have gone, but I enjoyed Toy Story 3 very, very much to not need any special things to up my enjoyment. (I'd rather go to Target and spend the few extra bucks getting candy.)Goliath wrote:It wouldn't be Toy Story to me, if I couldn't see it the way I saw the previous two films.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. I don't like how *everything* is 3D these days. I wonder how long the hype will last before everybody gets tired of it. Damn Cameron and his Avatar!magicalwands wrote:I thought the EXACT same thing when I was deciding whether or not to watch it in 3D. In the end, 2D was a good choice.

I really, really, *really* want to find out who made the decision to only release Toy Story 3 in 2D in the Dutch dubbed version! I wanna strangle him to death. Then I want to bring him back alive. Then strangle him again.

Thanks, Pap! I read that and thought, "My god, I simply HAVE to share that with everyone at UD, it's too hilarious not to."pap64 wrote: Margos, you win the thread, hands down. I was literally laughing out loud as I kept reading that comment. I HAVE to illustrate it now! XD

No doubt about it, that is a hilarious read. But it looks more like someone simply wrote a review in a different language, posted it into an online translator, then copied the results here without considering the difference in word choices, verb tenses, etc. Unless they really write like that, and all i can do is
for having such a unique grasp on English. Some examples...

Yeah, that's what I figured, but there are some that are much more difficult to explain.....
Like, maybe Shrek was garbage? Like, a garbage bag?shrek the bag
No idea what they would mean by this one.I grew up to toy prevarication,
Maybe.... "Pixar can make emotions flow from sad to impressive(?) without ruining beautiful moments! 10/10 (score)!" Still sounds kinda odd....pixar can flowing the emotions from sad to singular without devastation any handsome moments 10/10
Well... If Oscar is a "person...."Multi- Award Person
No comment. Tarradiddle? Module? This one lost me. I would take it to mean he wants more Toy Story movies..... But I'm not 100% sure....i wish this is not the end of toy tarradiddle if it is i module DIE

It makes me think of something Roger Rabbit would say. Maybe that's the next step with the Toy Story series. Bonnie moves to LA, and the toys get lost in Toontown. Insanity ensues.Escapay wrote:I love the name Toy Taradiddle. I want to write a story based on that title alone.

I just want to see some kind of duet or girl-power team action-sequence involving Jessie and Jessica. And I wonder what kind of interesting and original way they will come up with making Buzz magically deluded again in Toontown..... Roger trying to break through Potato Head's cynical potato skin with his hilarious antics would be amusing, too.
