SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the compatibility of IMAX 3D and RealD 3D with individuals who have a lazy eye, specifically in the context of watching the movie "Suicide Squad." It is established that traditional 3D systems require both eyes to process images for a 3D effect, which may not be feasible for someone with a lazy eye, as their brain ignores input from one eye. Participants concluded that it is advisable for individuals with a lazy eye to opt for a non-3D showing to avoid wasting money, although trying a 3D experience once could provide personal insight.
