So far the only 3D movies I've enjoyed are horror movies (Final Destination 5 and My Bloody Valentine, for example), because those movies are ridiculous to begin with. I don't mind an extra gimmick of blood squirting at you or an ax flying your way. Any movie that I would otherwise take seriously I won't see in 3D.

and that's the problem, right? Like - I want to be able to take the Hobbit seriously.

and you're right - blood squirting, appendage severing, monster lunging = the perfect use of 3D.
