I didnt think you got 3d films on dvd?

You can, but only a couple.

Only one that comes to mind is "Spy Kids 3d", but I cba shifting through Google results finding one that isn't on a competitor site

Has the Odeon in Sheff still got the rickety loud projectors in most of its screens?

Was an absolute dive last time I went, much better at the Cineworld.

Never been to the Odeon, heard a couple of good reviews about it, but mostly bad. It does look like a bit of a dive from the outside though.

cheers fella.

So these people that say they don't work, how do the 3d films that come out on dvd work, are you supposed to use the red/blue ones on these?

Yep

And it's a crap effect compared to the new technology used in the cinema.

You have to pay the £1.50 regardless of whether you already have a pair of glasses or not as the company the do the 3D imaging (Real3D) charge a fee thingy to the cinemas/producers.

Sounding more and more like my brother "charmed" the glasses out of them. He seems to be good at that. :mad:

No jealousy what so ever!

No it's based on the ticket price, you pay that before you get offered the glasses

The showcase acctually chareg you £2.00 per ticket for the 3d films.

He says he only paid £5.45. Which, tbh does seem wrong, since that is for a standard movie, not a 3d one. Ah well. :confused:

It's been known. Some of the things he gets for free, just because hes a "charmer" is ridiculous. Hes only 15 ffs!

Same at Cineworld at Boldon.
Doesnt matter if you have your own, you still pays the fees! The cost of producing the film is higher so they charge more. Though tbh, I think its worth it! (I have an unlimited card)
