I went to see Avatar yesterday and just had a question about the 3D glasses that were supplied to watch the movie does anyone know if it can be used to watch any web based 3D movies or are the glasses for cinema only?

No because we tried them at home on a 3D dvd that my neighbour had. It never worked. Some 3D films are different from each other. My neighbour has The Polar Express on 3D dvd and it comes with its own glasses but the pair from the cinema never gave same effect.

So that answers my question then i guess i was really kind of hoping they would work with other 3D material on the web 3D youtube video's etc

I already have, they don't unfortunately!
youtube 3D video's seem to be designed for the old style red-blue lens 3D glasses |

What?! Can you keep the glasses? We're not allowed to keep them after watching it.

Did you see channel 4 before christmas? They did that whole week of 3D stuff it was rubbish. All that old red and green crap which never looked remotely 3D.

Yes i did watch some bits of it but thought it was terrible so decided not to in the end it was basically the same sort of low tech 3D visuals we used to get in comics as kids very poor.

there's 2 types of 3D glasses,
Red/Cyan
Green/Magenta
You cannot use one set for the other and vica versa.. they need to standardise the formula before the roll it out mass market.

@fatreg... and then some...
you have stereoscopic glasses like the ones that Avatar and cinemas use... made by Real3D or something like that...
Then u have shutter type glasses which are a lot bigger as they open and shut each side hundreds of times a second to give the 3D effect...
Anyways looks like the ones u use in the cinema are lkely to be used for home 3D as Sony, LG and panasonic have licensed the tech already for their tvs

I am yet to see Avatar, the last 3D thing I seen was U23D at the Imax in Birmingham. It was a 3D concert & my god it blew my head off. Felt like I was on stage or in the crowd amazing

You've gotta wonder though.
If you need the glasses to get the 3D effect, I can't really see people wearing the glasses to watch tv.
Also what about those people who wear glasses or are short of sight? Do the 3D glasses fit over all types of glasses comfortably?
These are all things that need to be addressed & answered before 3D-TV can really take off for the masses imho.

The ones you get in the cinema fit over your own glasses. Big advantage of 3D is that when it gets scary, you take them off for a while
