Well, TVs with larger screens and better sound systems than many theaters are common in many U.S. households. (Alas not mine). So that's not an apt comparison. And I don't agree with your presumption that 3-D is an exhibition improvement like good sound.
Frankly, it takes me out of the movie a little bit to wear those glasses. I'm very conscious of them. Also, while I enjoyed Nightmare Before Christmas in 3-D very much, I don't consider it better than the "regular" version. It seemed like a gimmick.
And ya know what else, $15.50 a ticket for the pleasure seemed a little steep.
And you're right about one thing, size of the screen won't really matter. If UP is as good as other Pixar movies, I'll be seeing 99% of my viewings on my TV screen, and will still like it.
I'm not looking for the smallest screen to watch it on tonight, but neither did it concern me that the 2-D version will likely be showing on a smaller screen than the 3-D.
