The most egregious example is 3D. Only one thing is in focus, even though the scene is stereoscopic. It makes no sense visually.

Hell yeah, this one of many issues I had with the first Avatar movie. The movie was so filled with cool things to look at but none of it was in focus. 10 minutes in I had had enough and was ready for a more traditional movie experience. Impressive yes, for 10 minutes, then exhausting.
this thread is helping me understand why I always thought 3D movies looked _less_ 3D than 2D movies.
That and after seeing Avatar 1 in 3D, then seeing Avatar 2 in 3D over 10 years later and not really noticing any improvement in the 3D made me declare 3D movies officially dead (though I haven’t done side by side comparisons)
Hah - Avatar was exactly what I was thinking of.
