Well I haven't seen the movie yet so I cannot read most of your post, but I can comment on your questioning the pronunciation of "Sully" as "Sooly" that mostly stems from you, like most people, not understanding that certain languages do not have all the sounds that English, which is made by a combination of Greek, Latin, and Germanic roots.

Ever sit with someone still trying to learn English from an East Asian country and you will noticed that without seeing a word but only listening to someone with clear diction that they cannot properly repeat the words perfectly because there are sounds they have never learned to produce together or at all (learning just the consonant and vowels of those languages will give you a clear picture of this). Unless they have a keen ear like actors who are able to reproduce foreign accents, it will take them time, decades even, if at all. Most Asians I know who have been speaking English for over 30 years and still do not produce the proper pronunciation on words we take for granted.

Thing of it as the Elmer Fudd effects, the WB cartoon character who R's sound like W's. I also know a real person, an American born professor, who makes the same mistakes. Issues like that are now associated with how the brain language center is functioning (see: NOVE Science Now!).

Now how about those 3D glasses!
Well one of the main 3D projection system developers, RealD, is supposedly making prescription 3D glasses and sunglasses. The downside it that there are at least two other 3D projection systems that these glasses would not be compatible with. And that is just for theaters. nVidia, the computer graphics processor manufacturer has their own 3D Vision system for TV and PC, and then there is print media which is still primarily viewable with the standard Red & Blue 3D glasses. But this week I got to experience what the ChromaDepth process has to offer. Clear 3D glasses on what looks like traditional printed images that you can view or even read without the glasses like you normally would. The special occasion, Avatar of course!
