Re:Sony and LG stop making 3D TV sets by msluyter on Tuesday January 24, 2017 @10:04AM (#13471816)
Not that you asked me, but here's one reason: I have keratoconus and even with glasses and multiple eye surgeries don't see 20-20. Moreover, my right eye is considerably worse than my left, which means that I can't quite get binocular vision to work, making 3d viewing impossible for me. I realize folks like me are a tiny minority, however.

Perhaps a broader reason is that 3d seems to encourage filmmakers to go for visual spectacle over good storytelling.

I lost my right eye when I was very young, so for me as well 3D is just a way to make a movie look worse.
