Color vision goes away in dim light, which was readily available before photography.
Er, yeah, but there's no reason people would use dim light as a reference point for their dreams.
When you're trying to remember your dreams, you come up with a bunch of half-recalled images from a short narrative of unusual happenings that has little to do with your everyday life. You parse that as a movie and apply movie conventions to it.
Do you dream in 3D? Your kids will.
I hate 3-D movies. I like going to the movies with my one-eyed friend specifically to avoid the tussle over whether we're going to see it in 3-D or not.
(I would say I "dream in 3-D" in the same way that I "dream in color": often events happen in my dreams which depend on their taking place in a three-dimensional space, and I think I perceive that.)
