This won't come as any surprise to folks watching the absolutely thrilling Chargers vs. Colts matchup on NBC, but 3D has officially hit the mainstream. NBC has been feverishly pushing a 3D airing of a Monsters vs. Aliens trailer on Super Bowl Sunday, and a 3D episode of Chuck will follow later in February. We were even blasted with a shot of Jerome Bettis rockin' some super ugly 3D glasses, of which you'll be able to procure yourself for free in the coming weeks at select Pepsi and Sobe kiosks. Obviously, since the ads were shown to all watching tonight's tilt, no special television will be needed to enjoy the eye-popping content; now, let's just wait and see if any 3D clips are snuck into the actual Super Bowl.

It will use the Intru3d Colorcode Blue/amber "power anaglyph". Not red/blue
I think this is bad and it should only be shown with the DLP and Plasma ansd iz3d

Why can't they go all out and just have the actual super bowl in 3d. I don't even watch football but that would make me a fan.

It's been done in the past over the last 7 years & in Dec 08 & will go mainstream soon for the lucky US sports fans, see are Newsfeed storys here: "Would you like your Live NFL match's in 3D?" http://www.mtbs3d.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=2274" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
"Fox's BCS airs in 3D Tuesday at3D Entertainment Summit....& some theaters". http://www.mtbs3d.com/phpbb/viewtopic.p ... 070#p18070" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
"Oops, NFL 3D game coverage as hiccup but all ends well". http://www.mtbs3d.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=2322" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The past 7 years 3D events probably didn't get the mainstream coverage on ads etc, even the Dec 08 events didn't filter through to the general 2D public but the word is CES 2009, starting today, has a 3D theme according to the Tech Blogs. :D

"super ugly 3D glasses, of which you'll be able to procure yourself for free in the coming weeks at select Pepsi and Sobe kiosks." What exactly qualifies as a Pepsi and Sobe kiosk? Would that just be the shelf in your local wal-mart that has Pepsi and Sobe or am I completly missing what they mean by "kiosk"?

go here for more details, http://marketsaw.blogspot.com/2009/01/u ... glyph.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, this website seems to have the lowdown on what's going to be available in the way of hardware etc. Looks like this massive public outing for modern 3-D is going to have to be handled very carefully by the parties involved if modern 3-D is not to be seen as a rehash of the old anaglyph troublesome stereotypical technology to the general public.

Hi Folks,

I'm new to this forum.

There's only one legitimate place I've found, the rest seem like scams :-/ You can watch it over here though: http://www.vostuu.com/watch28015.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; They make you do a little survey but after that it's good to go :)
