That and all of the 3D/4D shows I saw over in Orlando's Universal Studios in the past few years.

3D is my thing.

]]> <![CDATA[Mark Cuban To Resurrect Movie Theaters, NBA and 3D At Same Time]]> Last time I went to a movie...
$12
Overpriced crappy "food"
No beer
Some urban gangsta' yammering on his phone
lots of disrespect for "the experience"
I have no plans to go to a movie any more.

It might be a different story if it was a sports event (talking would be far more acceptable). On the other hand, I could see fights between fans. Overall, not for me.

Good luck with that, 'cause theaters are dead to a lot of us.

Yeah sign me up.

Dream on!

]]> <![CDATA[Mark Cuban To Resurrect Movie Theaters, NBA and 3D At Same Time]]> what's with the NBA hating? the NBA is the best professional sports league in the world. combining it with 3D screens, alcohol, and people to share the game with is a great idea.

]]> <![CDATA[Mark Cuban To Resurrect Movie Theaters, NBA and 3D At Same Time]]> any reason for the nba ridicule? seems way out of left field. whoops... i'm sorry, do you hate mlb too?

want to make the theater experience better? they need to make it an "experience". better quality food, alcohol, better quality seats, much much cleaner environment and no commercials. obviously this would equate to a higher ticket cost which would have the benefit of weeding out the unwanted customers. i would put this in the same category as going to see a play or the symphony.

of course I'm not saying all theaters would follow this model, but it would draw me as a customer.

]]> <![CDATA[Mark Cuban To Resurrect Movie Theaters, NBA and 3D At Same Time]]> Here's an idea for movie theaters...

Sell merchandise.

You have movies based on books right?

And CD soundtracks for the films?

Movie posters?

All of that could (and should) be sold right there in the lobby.

]]> <![CDATA[Mark Cuban To Resurrect Movie Theaters, NBA and 3D At Same Time]]> The NBA is actually doing quite well... Check below for a note on TV ratings this year.

3D has been making quite the comeback (i.e. families watching the new Hannah Montana show that brought in plenty of cash)

and yes... the Magnolia theatre does serve and at not unreasonable prices.

Cuban shouldn't have banned bloggers from the locker room, but this post is sadly a little more off base than most from Gizmodo.

CYST!

]]> <![CDATA[Mark Cuban To Resurrect Movie Theaters, NBA and 3D At Same Time]]> mark cuban is really smart about tech stuff but this is retarded. also, there are no suburban gangstas at the magnolia, just the asshole yuppie crowd.

CYST!

]]> <![CDATA[Mark Cuban To Resurrect Movie Theaters, NBA and 3D At Same Time]]> Last time I checked you couldn't buy alcohol when going to a movie. Unless they serve buckets of beer at the theatre, sports events are a non-starter.

]]> <![CDATA[Mark Cuban To Resurrect Movie Theaters, NBA and 3D At Same Time]]> 25 people who care about the NBA?

Uh, Deadspin's March Madness took down your site yesterday, so at least that number of people care about basketball. (ha, that's probably 25. kidding!)

They can pass 3D glasses out at the door of the theatre.

The current and upcoming Sammy DLPs are 3-D Ready, as are the upcoming SEries 4 Plasmas (hitting stores supposedly this month, so perhaps in the next few weeks?). And the DDD accessory kit with the glasses and s/w can apparently convert 2-D stuff from a PC into 3-D on the fly...watch the old Bulls n Blazers in 3-Dizzle!!!
