Either watching Avatar in 3D today or playing four hours of Valkyria Chronicles gave me a pretty terrible headache tonight.

Was it James Cameron’s epic blue alien action-adventure hippie-fest? A 2+ hour treatise on how hugging trees can eventually lead to being able to ride birds?

Or was it squad 7’s valiant infiltration and liberation of the Darcsen concentration camp at Fouzen? And by liberation, I really mean conflagration. Oops. (Also, spoiler.)

Maybe it was both? While I’ve played more than four hours of games before with no ill effect, I didn’t also get hit with the CameronHammer on the same day! I’m sure that 3D glasses didn’t do my eyes or brain any favors.

Man, me and 3D movies. It’s a relationship gone sour. Every time I tell myself I’m going back to regular movies, 3D is always like, “but what about this groundbreaking new movie that’s sure to be better with me, babe?” and then I go see it and 3D hits me. In the head. Out of love?

I won’t go see Alice in Wonderland in 3D. I won’t.
I’ll probably be holding my son instead, or perhaps delivering a baby in the back of a yacht, if things go horribly wrong.
