When yesterday’s news broke there were definitely people saying that too, but a little more excitement too– and that’s just two weeks after the Lion King 3D re-release. So I’m wondering– if you’ve changed your mind and are now really looking forward to The Little Mermaid on the big screen in 3D, what made you change?

Vote in the poll below, and more important, chime in on the comments section letting us know if you changed your mind about 3D thanks to The Lion King or one of the other Disney re-releases. It’s important not just to satisfy my curiosity, but as a good gauge of where 3D is headed from here.  …
