Likewise. I certainly wasn't bored, it looked greats I'm a fan of 3d and this is the perfect film for it and uses it very well. Some scenes were just too corny for my taste. Some of the "science" was grating. The ending needs to be cut off totally. There was a perfect ending a few minutes earlier. I wouldn't bother at home, flat, but it was good on the big screen in 3d for sure.
