No 3D for Sucker Punch

About two weeks ago, director Zack Snyder dropped hints to Music Television (as reported by Mitch Anderson) his latest Sucker Punch would in fact not be post-converted to 3D. This is despite Warner Brothers making it loud and clear all of their big-releases would be presented in the gimmick/technology from hence forth.
Coming Soon has received confirmation on the matter. The source of this info is the closest you'll hear to Snyder himself – his wife/producing partner Deborah.
The short version is basically this. The 3D results as of late look like crap and the film supposedly looks great enough as is. There's also this looming 3D backlash with the general public thanks in no part due to the ass-tastic reception to Alice in Wonderland, Clash of the Titans and The Last Airbender's slapped-on 3D. Plus it's not like the Snyders are 100% against it as a whole. Their forthcoming Legend of the Guardians was specifically worked on with 3D in mind from the get-go a la Avatar.
Then again, there’s always the chance WB heads come down from the top of their mountain and order them to do 3D or else!
