I don't really think touching on 3DTV is straying off topic too much, as the next Avatar release would likely depend on being 3D.

TBH I usually adopt new tech somewhat early but I really see little reason to run out and buy an HDTV just for the sake of a few movies -- at $200+ a pop for a pair of glasses and for a family of four that means an extra $400 (assuming you get 2 pairs with the TV). Now, I can understand if you're upgrading anyways, but not specifically for 3D.

I don't know why they don't convert Avatar over to the standard red/blue or magenta/green 3D for home release; it should be doable since they should still have the left/right data separate. Coraline's 3D was ok. You could fit both the 2D and 3D versions on the same BluRay like Coraline.
