| | Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I to only be shown in 2D format, not 3D
In a new press release, Warner Bros announced that due to time constraints, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I will ONLY be featured in 2D in conventional theatres and IMAX, not 3D. However, Part II, as originally scheduled, will be featured in both 2D and 3D formats. Quote:
Warner Bros Pictures has made the decision to release “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1” in 2D, in both conventional and IMAX theaters, as we will not have a completed 3D version of the film within our release date window. Despite everyone’s best efforts, we were unable to convert the film in its entirety and meet the highest standards of quality.
We do not want to disappoint fans who have long-anticipated the conclusion of this extraordinary journey, and to that end, we are releasing our film day-and-date on November 19, 2010 as planned. We, in alignment with our filmmakers, believe this is the best course to take in order to ensure that our audiences enjoy the consummate “Harry Potter” experience.
Producer David Heyman said, “For 10 years, we have worked alongside Alan Horn and the studio, whose priority has always been to preserve the integrity of Jo Rowling’s books as we have adapted them to the screen, and this decision reflects that commitment.”
Director David Yates continued, “This decision, which we completely support, underscores the fact that Warner Bros. has always put quality first.”
As scheduled, on July 15, 2011, we will deliver to conventional and IMAX theaters our final installment of the film franchise, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2,” in both 2D and 3D formats.

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this! I hate 3-D anyway,so this is good news. I only watched one film in 3-D and that was How to Train Your Dragon. It's very cool that WB decided to make the right choice for the film.

I'm not a fan of the 3D format, so this is a good thing!

I agree with most ppl on here, I see this as a good thing. 3D conversions suck! I want to see this film in the IMAX, but now I don't have to suffer through that crappy "3D" stuff and I just get to see it in a mondo-gigantic screen! YAY!

I was looking back in the comments and saw one or 2 people mentioned about Clash of the titans was a trainwreck, it was only a trainwreck because it was done in conversion 3D, which is what they were going to do Harry Potter in. Conversion 3D is no were near as good, for example:
Clash of the Titans - Conversion
Avatar - Non conversion.
If you see those 2 films in 3D you would notice that it is good in a way that its not being done in 3D

I'm okay with this. I never really liked the idea of them showing the entire film in 3D anyway.

not every movie needs to be in 3D but that seems to be the catch phrase for the new decade or something,
not sure how well DH will work in 3D anyways
