The technology's finally ready for 3D movies to shine, more than 15 years since James Cameron's Avatar wowed me on the big screen and went on to become the highest-grossing film worldwide. Video glasses are giving me the experience I've always desired. I've always loved 3D movies, but viewing them was awkward.
