An odd question to ask in a place like this, but anyway, my answer is 2D.

Why? Because the best anime is 2D.

3d anime looks kinda strange if you ask me.

I hate it when they mix the two. It leaves a really weird effect. Id say 2d, the cg in some films isnt bad, but i like the drawn effect.

It depends on what the actual thing is we´re watching...
I usually prefer 2d-orientated animation, though.

I prefer 2D but some 3D movies, like Polar Express really are beautiful to watch. You sit there gaping and thinking, whoa, how DID they do that?

I prefer realistic style, so PE was right up my street. The rather more 'cartoony' 3D of, say, Shrek, isn't my kind of CGI.

Some CGI in anime such as Blue Sky is also very well done.

I still think faces and eyes are the stumbling block in 3D, in a 2D animation you know it's not real and you accept it, some 3D movies try for a real effect and always fail and then it looks wrong.

I'm sure 3D is just going to get better and better though and in perhaps 10 years it will be close to indistinguishable from real actors and sets.

polar express was bad. It looked like all the kids had overdosed on botox injections in the facial area.

i think it is because 3d is trying to be as close to digitizing humans as it can, 2d drawings usually have their own style that exaggerates feature to make things seem less like it is imitating life.

I rather liked Polar Express, it was deep- in a weird sort of way, but it was deep nonetheless.
Reality isn´t a bad thing to have in movies and the such, I mean, some of us love fantasy and seeing it close to¨reality¨ is a great thing for those people.

Hmm I think It'd have to be 2D for me too.

I think the late 90's early 00's boom in crapply animated 3D childrens cartoons were what did it for me. I used to love watching kids TV even into my late teens but the mass produced crap that kept coming out sucked all the life out of it. Butt ugly martians is a perfect example of the crap I mean. What the hell ever happened to Bucky O'hare and Biker mice from mars!

I remember blowing off my GSCE revision to race home from school every day in time to catch Cardcaptor Sakura at 3:20. I was 16 at the time, lol!
