This is the Emergo process, and it is patented by William Castle.

No doubt some cinema will use AR/VR-style headsets to give the audience
different viewpoints depending on where they are sitting. Could be good
for those watching something like a sports event or music concert, but
it doesn't really work for a normal movie since it is irrelevant where
you are in relation to others watching.

This would fail badly because everyone would be jostling for the best view.
I could imagine this could be useful for museum reproductions of historical
events, though.

I can only play 3D computer games for a few minutes before I start
getting motion sick. If I continue to play, I end up with an extremely
bad headache and bad nausea. Even just watching gameplay trailers
starts making me feeling sick too.

Same problem.  Your vestibular system is saying one thing and your visual
system is saying another thing and they conflict and your brain doesn't know
what to do about it.

I've never bothered trying to watch a 3D movie.

I have no stereoscopic depth perception because I could only see out of one
eye until I was twelve.  My wife's ex had none because his brother poked his
eye out with a stick when he was at about the same age.  The two of us set
up 3-D films at Arisia several years running, both dual-projector with chains
to synchronize and Swinging Stewardesses with the mirror box system.  We
lined everything up on the test films so the marks were all in the right
place on the screen and then we'd have to get her to put on the polarized
glasses and tell us if everything looked right.
