Also an amazingly simple solution to an otherwise annoying problem! I would wonder since you are only getting one polarized part of the film: Do you run the risk of lowering the quality of anything?
You only lose the 3D-ness of the movie. Each eye is still getting the same amount of information (light intensity, color depth, resolution and all that) as when you wear regular 3D glasses, only now they get the exact same information rather than two different views that your brain combines into 3D. You can easily try out what you would see wearing these glasses by closing an eye whilst watching a 3D movie. Seeing a proper 2D screening is still preferable though.
If I wasn't boycotting most forms of Pseudo 3d film then this might actually work for me *someone whom cannot discern 3d affect most of the time and just the effort gives me blinding headaches* If I cant find the 2d version of a film I just don't see it.
And most SHOT in Pseudo 3d films I wont even see the 2d versions of said films.
**** Pseudo 3d.
And my nerd level isn't high enough to comprehend will's shirt =(
Tron Legacy was only in 3D in some places. Also, for some reason the 3D version is still in theaters around my area but the 2D version is gone. Oddly the 2D version only lasted for 2 weeks at all my local theaters.
Yes, I'm an asshole.
I don't really get the significance of the "right quote", but the value below is just another way to represent the same "right quote"--it's an HTML ascii value, and every letter, number, punctuation mark or non-US character has an associated value. If you really want to geek out, here's the full list.
