D'oh -- if 3D isn't adding anything significant to 'The Lion King' then I'm not missing anything by not seeing it in 3D, am I?!
The 1954 'Creature from the Black Lagoon', like Hitchcock's 'Dial M for Murder' the same year, was shot in 3D but obviously the intention was always to prepare a 2D version for release at the same time, for theaters without 3D capability, and hence the filmmakers took that into account while shooting.
The makers of 'The Lion King', on the other hand, animated, composed and cut every single shot in the film without any foreknowledge of its eventual 3D re-release. Simply put: The movie was made for 2D.
I never intended to watch 'The Lion King' in 3D anyway; that *you* are singing its praises so much only validates my decision, thanks.
