Piranha 3DD was reviewed by someone who DOESN'T have a 3D TV! They should've sent it to ME instead!

I don't think anyone on-staff has a 3DTV.
Until there's a 3DTV that can equal or best my 60" 9G Kuro, I'm not going to make the plunge. It's insane that my TV's four years old and there's still nothing in its league, but... I'm willing to fork over the money if a manufacturer somewhere will step up their game.
If it would be legally recognized in the state of South Carolina, I probably would marry my Kuro.

I'd like to review any future 3D titles. I have a 60" Sharp with active 3D and have been loving it. (It's not a perfect TV, but I have few complaints about it.)
Watched Piranha 3DD and it was just OK- movie-wise the first one was much better but this one had its moments. 3D wasn't spectacular either, thought it was well-done in the first movie and I was surprised to find out after watching it that it was post-converted! 3DD was shot in real 3D, but either the novelty is wearing off or it just wasn't too impressive. Movie still seems pointless to watch without it though. (The commentary is ONLY on the 2D version for some reason.)
