    Sony Pictures CEO: 3D Blu-ray Movies Not Enough to Drive Household Adoption

    Hollywood’s marketing of 3D Blu-ray Disc movies won’t be enough to drive wider consumer adoption of 3D in the home, the head of Sony Pictures said.

    Speaking Dec. 7 in an investor call with William Blair & Co.in Chicago, Michael Lynton, CEO of Sony Pictures Entertainment, said in-home adoption of 3D has been stymied by a dearth of compelling content beyond movies.

    Lynton said greater availability of sports programming and video games in 3D would help jumpstart the format among consumers.

    I agree...especially with video games. I think that 3D games are the best and much more effective tham movies, as a whole. Documentaries (IMAX series) are also a wonderful 3D experience over movies,imo. There are a good number of 3D Blu movies that are awesome, dont get me wrong, but I think 3D gaming is the better of the two.
    My mancave:

    Display - Sony Bravia 3D 55HX800, Epson 3D 3020 (124")
    Players - Sony BDP-S570, Sony BDP-S590, Sony PS3 320GB
    Computer - Mac 27" i5 1 terabyte hdd (1 terabyte back up hdd), MacBook Pro 17" i5 750GB

    Portable Devices - iPad (4th gen A6 64GB), iPod Touch (5th gen A5 32GB)
