No, only when someone says "it looks like toys", or something along those
lines.  Depends upon the crowd.  If it's a showing to the general public,
then it may be appropriate.  Also depends upon how "gross" it is.  Some
hyper is noticeable if you look for it, but isn't "objectionable", others
can be very dramatic.  And others inbetween.  Something to be "played
by ear".

P.S. - May also "depend" upon the mix of images.  If *all* are substantially
       hyper (as Discover3D tends to be), a comment may be more appropriate.
       Note that "comment" isn't the faulting some sin, but a ten word 
       explaination of a curious effect that's a bit out of the ordinary.
