Limited edition 3D glasses for the film!

[Zulithe]

I posted this in the trailer (http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/showpost.php?p=1252613&postcount=28) thread but I think it is worthy of its own thread. Sorry I did a search and although news of this broke on March 25th I didn't find anyone mention it...

Two comments from me. 1) They look really cool to me 2) I hate post-converted 3D, so i'm no sure if I'll even get me a pair of these or not. Maybe if I rummage through the 3d glasses 'drop box' and find some? :)

Collider (http://instagram.com/p/l-fU1UJMoi/#) first broke the info. No word on which theaters will have these... possibly all of the ones doing 3D showings.

[D Piddy 1982]

Cool. Hope we get these in the UK, I'd love a Mikey themed pair! Thanks for sharing, had not seen this before.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

If these come over here, then i am without a doubt getting these.

[Candy Kappa]

They where posted a while ago in one of the movie threads, but that's probably long gone, deleted by the mods.

The glasses do look nice, and might be the only PD movie merc I'll get.

[MajorViolence]

I never understood the appeal of these things. Seems like a complete waste of money to me. They look like they would add weight to the glasses, making them uncomfortable, and add nothing to the experience m outside of giving you a collectible to put on a shelf.

[Candy Kappa]

It looks like they strap around your head, so they aren't like regular glasses. I don't think the added weight would be a issue, the Despicable Me 2 goggles worked fine, and they look great.

[Kanon]

I, as someone who wears glasses, think they won`t fit.

It feels weird to wear 3d glasses and my normal ones and I didn`t expect that they thought of this little problem.

[MajorViolence]

Even of they're held on with a strap, it still doesn't sound very comfortable, or at least less comfortable than just wearing the regular glasses. And I don't even get the point. It's something you wear, but you wear it in a dark room while everyone is looking at a screen. I don't know. It's just definitely not something that appeals to me.

[Candy Kappa]

Well, the DM2 goggles are working fine, and comes with their own small bag so they don't get dirty, if that's the case with the TMNT ones they'll be a nice replacement whenever I'm going to see a 3-D movie, a rare occurrence but it's nice to have glasses ready instead of buying the regular ones every time we forget our 3-D glasses.

Wait, you're saying your theater charges you less if you bring your own glasses? I've never seen a theater do this. They just charge extra for the tickets to 3D movies and throw in the glasses "free."

I could definitely see the appeal if you're getting charged specifically for glasses.

[Candy Kappa]

You have to buy the glasses separately, there is no requirement in my cinema about purchasing new glasses for each 3-D viewing.

[raphmike]

how much cost 3d color glasses?

[The Fifth Turtle]

Yep I need me a pair of each. Cool touch.

[The Boston Ninja Turtle]

how much cost 3d color glasses?

my guess would be they are some part of a bundle pack at theaters i know around me usually its 20 bucks that may or may not included ticket popcorn and drink

[MajorViolence]

That's the thing that is confusing me, that your cinema is treating it as "buying" the glasses. Where I am, the glasses are cheap plastic things that you drop in a bin on your way out of the theater, so you're not really "buying" them, though it's certainly very easy to just pocket them and take them home. You can bring your own pair if you like, but it won't impact the cost of your ticket. Are you located in the US? I wonder if it's a regional thing.

[Candy Kappa]

No, I live in Norway.

We don't have a glasses bin, and I am kinda glad of that as you buy a new pair of glasses. I listen to the Major Spoilers Podcast, and they discussed 3-D and the 3-D glasses, and they mentioned a study where they had swapped samples of the glasses and actually found not only harmful bacteria on the reused glasses, but also fecal matter.. Yuck.

[The Stryker]

They're dumb and pointless but so is pretty much everything discussed on this forum.

I want them. Just because. I'm thinking they'll be AMC exclusive. That chain had the Avengers glasses too.

[sethmartin]

I think there are SOME things posted on this forum that are not dumb and pointless like...um... I don't know... The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Lol

But yeah those glasses are more for the kids. Remember, kids like the turtles too! Me at 8 years old would have loved a pair of those. Me as a grown man- well they might be a cool souvenir but they look a bit uncomfortable. I might buy a pair just to have but I'll stick with 2D or the polarize glasses for the film itself.

[Nameless]

if i can pick them up cheap and easy i'll get them.... but not spending a ton of time or money on a gimmick.

[AquaParade]

I'm going to let my excitement for something as trivial as this be proof to myself that I'm still alive.

[The Stryker]

Thats the MOST dumb and pointless thing dawg!

HA HA. Well I guess you got a point there.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

They look cool, but 3D is disgusting. I can't believe people pay hundreds of dollars extra for 3D TVs.

The only 3D showing I can remember where I didn't feel like barfing the whole time was Hugo, and that was because it was very bare-bones 3D (i.e. nothing jumping out at you or trying to be impressive).

I agree. Martin Scorsese used the 3D as a tool to help tell the story and convey emotion rather than just a gimmick to get more money at the cinema. Avatar is a good example of this too but not as perfected as Hugo.

IDK they have come a long way with post converted 3d. Personally if i can i go to 3d i just feel more immersed into the movie Ive never really gotten sick or dizzy only issue i have is that my local theater does not have "screens" they have white painted walls so i can see the seams in the wall and while watching in 3d my ADHD kicks in and some time get distracted. but not very often

[Shark_Blade]

Those who wear glasses just wear contacts or do eye surgery. Problem solved for the 3d glasses.

If these get released here I'd definitely get em. :D

I did 3D conversion for several years. In the beginning especially right after Avatar came out, several studios rushed the conversion process just to capitalize on the whole 3D novelty. Around the time of Hugo, 2011-ish, 3D was getting such a bad reputation that the studios wised up. Also the digital cameras got better so now most 3D films are shot natively. If they are converted, the process has been perfected to the point where its hard to tell what has been shot and what has been converted. I think this movie was shot natively but I could be wrong. Sorry. I'm a nerd lol

no worries thats some good insight

[d_osborn]

I'm pretty sure it's being post-converted. I didn't see any 3D Alexa rigs in the set shots.

[MajorViolence]

If this movie were filmed in 3D they wouldn't be showing a 2D trailer in front of 3D films. It's post-converted.

from people i have talked to that saw the trailer in 3d it was in 3d???

[graphic_content]

I have no intention of seeing this movie in 3D, BUT, I will gladly buy a ticket to a 3D showing just to snag a pair of these glasses.

...and wear them to work the next day. Why? Because it's awesome.

[MajorViolence]

Everyone I know said it was in 2D, and it was in 2D when I saw it, even though it was in front of a 3D showing of Cap 2.

[graphic_content]

Wear them to work? Awesome:lol:

i provide tech support...so i have the anonymity of working from behind a screen :) but surely the people in the office will look at me weird, haha.

[turtlefanforever]

but don't wanna pay for a ticket for this thing. I'd gladly pay the ticket price just for the glasses though so idk.

[DonnyMac]

I dislike 3D movies, but I would like these glasses. I doubt my local theatre will get them, but if they do, I will be definitely getting a pair

[discordiatookie]

I like these glasses. Pretty cool bit of merch. I'll definitely pick up if they're round my way.

I really don't mind 3D. I've seen some pretty cool films in which the 3D made them better, in my opinion. Don't think I've seen a film in 3D that wasn't filmed for it though...

[LincolnHawk]

I love love love 3d movie, but yes....I too wear glasses and it's such a pain in the ass to wear the ones the theatre provides for you. I wish there was some other alternative.

[Candy Kappa]

Maybe you can fashion a simple 3-D pair into a clip-on, like those clip-on sunglasses you can attach to your glasses. I also need glasses to see, but I have been using contact lenses for well over 10 years. Never looked back on using glasses, still have my old pair, but they are severely outdated as my eyesight have decreased a lot.


3-D glasses are really a crude solution to view a movie in 3-D, our 1st year 3D animation teacher couldn't enjoy the early showing of the movie Bolt, because it was in 3-D and he have a lazy eye, so the 3-D glasses don't work for him. He watched the entire movie without the glasses.

So Oakley's Has eye wear that are both for 3d movie polarized and prescriptions i believe but they're hella expensive it would only be a matter of refitting the lens on the "disposable" one onto prescription glasses

[turtlefanforever]

Are these purchasable without having to actually go see the movie? I must have them all

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Honestly, I wish there was a better alternative for those of us who HAVE to wear glasses. I can't even wear contacts anymore, because my eyesight is so bad naturally that no contacts are strong enough. Gotta wear frames, and even the "featherweight" ones are still so thick and heavy that it feels like wearing coke bottle bottoms. Without them, I'm virtually blind. Just one big blur of colors. Thank goodness I've memorized my touch screen at work well enough to do it without seeing the exact buttons if I need to take them off! (Which I sometimes do if the headset starts to give me a headache.... And I STILL get the orders right. Wish others who can SEE could do that. :tgrumble: )

[d_osborn]

For a film shot in (and likely designed for) 2D, it's hard to beat a 2D presentation.

Get your ticket and your glasses, then just don't go in? Maybe give your ticket to someone else... Not quite the same thing, but if I've ever got time left on a parking ticket or an all day bus ticket I'm finished with, I always try to pass it on to someone.

heck lol I'll take the ticket heck if people are so adamant about not seeing the movie yet want these glasses and aren't even willing to give to movie a shot, I and others might as well get a free ticket out of it lol.

I'm on board. If it's for free. It's for me.

[samxsteal]

I'm on board. If it's for free. It's for me.

seriously then i can pay again to see it twice hahahaha

[turtlefanforever]

if I have to buy a ticket I'm gonna go see it. I just want all 4 glasses

[Candy Kappa]

Just ask the staff in your local cinema if you can buy them without buying a ticked.

[samxsteal]

i was wondering this as well looks like something they will be selling at the concession stand at least that's what most sites are reporting so far. At participating theaters at least which one will be is beyond me. but idk if supplies are limited they might only sell to those going to the movie.

[samxsteal]

3d glasses now Available online at the Look3d website
THough the store is located in Au So the shipping can be expensive for all 4 glasses
http://oxygeninte.cart.net.au/store/Teenage+Mutant+Ninja+Turtles+-+Pack.html

I tired to purchase but i wouldn't process IDK why

[Olmosa]

Well, I just read an article stating that Real3D showings of the film will be receiving the glasses. I guess Real3D will be the one distributing them and not just regular 3D showings.

I assume you have Real3D tickets as well DioLeo? I got them RIGHT AWAY because I figured the most expensive ticket would at least get them.

Yup I usually don't do RealD 3d but for the Ninja turtles it's totally worth it

[Olmosa]

I thought the same thing. I rarely do 3D. NEVER do Real3D, but I HAD to for this film! Can't wait. :tgrin:

[IndigoErth]

Really hoping people can buy them separately at the theater as well without the 3D ticket...


Edit: Heard back from Cinemark. Still doesn't offer much info, but they had this to say:
Stephanie - Select TMNT locations will have specially marked 3D glasses but unfortunately these are not available for purchase separately. Locations and quantity of glasses are while supplies last.

But can I just show up and get a pair with intentions of seeing it another day.. :\

[The Stryker]

I really wish my theater had those. Had ANYTHING special.

[prophecy718]

Is there a link to a list of theaters participating? I'm in NY, so I would really like to find these.

[Shark_Blade]

They NEED to sell those in my cinema or I'll be depressed.

[Asha]

I wonder can you wear those with glasses under?
even if a could I still try to get them.

[Matt2310]

im taking my glasses with me tonight with hopes that my theatre has these and they fit over my glasses! if i can get a pair i will fill in tonight

[Matt2310]

i actually just called my theatre thats showing the screening and they said the representatives showing it might come with the 3D glasses but the theatre itself isnt selling them :( i hope i can snatch a pair

[samxsteal]

I ordered mine but i haven't gotten any Shipping confirmation been trying to contact them But no response so far.

But there is this form their Facebook/YouTube

Thank you, please do. I'd not been intending on seeing it in 3D, largely out of concerns for how my glasses would fit with those and if it messes with the peripheral vision since it's prob not as close up on your face.

If it won't work too well, I hope they do not require a 3D ticket in order to get them, that is no fair to glasses wearers if it won't work.

[DioLeo451]

Edit: Spoke to someone else in regards to 3d glasses
''We should get confirmation before it's release'' not much to go on but whatevs
seems only Mexico are the only ones I have seen with them while everywhere else
does not this ain't looking to good

Twitter users have a bunch Like one guy works for a movie theater posted they had them multiple accounts have shown picture of them. So i think they're slowly arriving

Don't be playing with my emotions Sam lol:D thanks for the info much appreciated

[samxsteal]

Don't be playing with my emotions Sam lol:D thanks for the info much appreciated

But it still might depend on the specific theater. Like my local theater will likely not get them at all while the one im going to go to premier night seeing as its a larger theater, But im not sure I purchased mine off the website but i still have yet to receive any shipping info so i have no idea if they will get here for the premier

[Tora]

I was under the impression that AMC Theaters were going to carry them so i would search for their locutions online and check there cinemas.

I have one here close by in Richmond Ohio. I'm gonna check and see if they have them.

BTW if anyone knows how much are they?

From the web site they are 14.95 AUD so about 14.45

So about 14 maybe 15 dollars

[Matt2310]

so bummed they didnt have those at the screening i went to... just foam fingers and mini posters

[GildedLily]

I'm planning on seeing Turtles at my AMC theater, so I'll report back if they have the 3D glasses. Seems if you can prove you're a Stubs member, you get a free cloth Ninja Turtle mask, but doesn't say anything about the cool 3D glasses on their website. Tried calling multiple times, but for some reason, no one never picks up and I get a recording saying my theater is not available right now. So, I'll keep trying to call from time to time to see if I can find out any information. As soon as I do (or even if I go see it and am able to get a pair) I'll let you guys know. Figures. Louisiana, you're lucky if you ever speak to anyone, actually. Sometimes you have to figure this stuff out as you go to do things. But I'm planning on going the opening Saturday. Unless someone beats me to it first.

Stubs? whats that

[GildedLily]

AMC Theaters have this rewards program called the "Stubs" program. You get points for every movie ticket you buy, and after so much is saved up, you can use it for ticket upgrades, free popcorn, free soda, etc type deal. Seems (according to AMC website) if you can prove you're a Stubs Rewards member, you get a free Ninja Turtle mask (cloth-not the 3D glasses everyone's been mentioning). It's limited amount, so I suppose the cloth masks are first come, first serve type deal, but at least if you're a rewards member, you get a little added bonus when you see the Turtles movie.

I am not a member, but my friend tagging along is. So, he can at least get it. He may be nice enough and get a Raph one for my nephew (though wish he'd just let me take the offer but lol)

By the way, they FINALLY picked up at the AMC theaters and the guy told me they won't know anything about any 3D glasses concerning the Turtles movie until like Wednesday or so, so I shall call back around that time and see what I can find out for everyone (at least with AMC Theaters)

if your going to a screening your theater wont know anything about it... it would be the representatives that come to show the movie that would bring them and you wouldnt know till you got there... same crap happened with me 2 nights ago... and unfortunately they didnt have them only foam hands and mini posters...

hopefully when movie actually comes out they will have them for 3D them at the theaters

[testtube]

What about the cups with the figures on them?

[beeshaw]

What about the cups with the figures on them?

I saw those at a Cineplex Theatre last night (Canada).

[IndigoErth]

Very very much hoping they'll turn out to be purchasable or something.

Wasn't planning on using my free ticket the first day and not sure if I could do the 3D with my glasses since those masks are a wrap around style (and unsure about the peripheral vision), and now my dad has a procedure scheduled at the hospital on the 8th and if it ends up requiring an overnight stay for him I can't really justify running off to see a movie while he's got crap going on... :ohwell: Hoping I can just stop in my nearest theater and buy a pair that afternoon while they still have them. :ohwell: It would make sense if they'd sell them, or as an option to get additional pairs, since I'm sure some people probably want all four.

I know this. That's why the guy's manager (at my local AMC Theaters) said the reps are going to be contacting them and discussing stuff with them on Wednesday, including TMNT stuff. So, I'm going based off what the gentleman on the phone told me. Said they would know something by Wednesday after speaking to the representatives.

If he hadn't mentioned anything about reps, I'd never make a post on here about the glasses, cause you know. Wouldn't want to get anyone's hopes up. Just basing it off what the man said. He sounded like maybe they had been discussing TMNT stuff for a while now. Since they show Real 3D there and such. But, what do I know? If anything guys, when I go see it opening Saturday, I'll report back if we did find 3D glasses there and let you guys know, of course.

[Chuquison]

I have called around they either don't know or wont have them cups or glasses. but ill get the cloth I guess

If they come in actual packaging...maybe buyable? *fingers crossed*


Edit: Brand site has them available, but ouch the price.

It looks like these are hitting ebay from sellers attending premieres. Based on a photo I found on Instagram, they are being sold for $9.99 plus tax based on the display. Another photo I found tonight.

If they come in actual packaging...maybe buyable? *fingers crossed*


Edit: Brand site has them available, but ouch the price.

$50 for all 4 isn't THAT bad... of course you don't really need 4 pairs now do ya?

[IndigoErth]

No, a reasonably priced blue pair is all I ask. lol

Missed the detail that it's a set of all four, guess that isn't so insane in that case, but still. Why they no sell single! *fake drama look*


People at the premiere, stop taunting me with those... lol

Took another peek and instead of just clicking on their TMNT banner, looked at their themed collection and....

BOOM. Single. $15 (back up if they don't sell them in your theater at least.)

[IndigoErth]

Ah, good eye! Thank you! :D

The way they are packaged reminds me of the ones they were selling for the Hobbit this past Dec. at Best Buy. Just checked their site, no luck.

So Cinemark is supposedly giving these away free (pic from their FB page). Not the mask but still potentially another collectable, if basic, pair of 3D glasses. (Not sure if it's just Cinemark though.)

Be the first to see TMNT Movie and get a FREE pair of RealD 3D glasses.

Does make me a little more hopeful that maybe the masks will be purchasable... But not finding anything more about them yet.

[Donatello19]

I've called pretty much every movie theater in driving range...none of them have them, most of the people I talked to didn't even know what I was talking about.

[beeshaw]

Just saw this on the blu-ray.com forums!!!

If you are in Canada, they are selling the special 3D glasses for $10+tax each ($40+tax for the whole set) at the Cineplex theatres.

YES!!!

[IndigoErth]

Whaa... :tsad:

Edit: Woohoo! Thank you! Come on U.S., I know you gotta be doing it too.

[DioLeo451]

(Crosses Fingers)
Edit: So Unfortunately they don't have them only the mask if you're a stubs member no word either on Foam fingers or mini posters

[beeshaw]

Found this doing a Google Image search. No idea on what chain this is, but appears to be American. This help any of you guys out?

[IndigoErth]

Nice :) Looks like they're a small theater chain in about four states, mostly southwest, but if they're selling... fingers still crossed.

[IndigoErth]

Still trying to find information, confirmation, something... Asked Cinemark about it again via FB, they had this to say:
The special mask 3D glasses are only available for giveaway on our Facebook page. See our post from this afternoon. Good luck!

:ohwell: I was gonna run over to their theater nearest me just to see, but now not so sure. Afraid this could turn out like those pizza boxes. :\



Btw, if you've got Cinemark (or are at least in the U.S.?), this is the post they're referring to if you want to enter:

Edit: Regal is doing it, too. https://www.facebook.com/RegalEntertainmentGroup/photos/a.161225899198.149136.109497419198/10153115161764199/?type=1&relevant_count=1

Alright, I hate to be a bother or look like a thread hog with a few posts in a row here... And apologize if it's been mentioned in threads I'm avoiding to stay away from likely spoilers, but has anyone who's seen by now seen any hint of these 3d glasses at any theaters?

[Shellrider13]

AMC theathers offered a cloth mask for members only.

[TigerClaw]

Carmike Theater didn't had those special 3D glasses, Just the regular ones.

[IndigoErth]

Stopped in at my Cinemark to ask; nope.

[Midnight Mutant]

My theater gave out dog tag necklaces. My friend in Cali got the 3D glasses tho.

I'm not sure what theater, I'll have to ask.

When are you going to see it IndigoErth? I can grab you a pair for cost + shipping if you can't find them down there.

Probably sometime between tomorrow and Monday, hopefully tomorrow night if able. Different theater but not holding my breath on them either since they've likewise said on Facebook that they supposedly don't have them.

That would be awesome if you're able to get hold of an extra pair of those blue ones, thank you. :D I've got PayPal if that will work, or which ever way would be easiest to pay you back.

[Roseangelo]

My theater had color-coded kid-sized glasses with a cardboard thing you stick to the front.

Yeah man, no worries. I'll grab them tomorrow when I go see the flick. Let me know when you go/if you find them. If you don't I'll figure out shipping. If you do (yay) I'll just toss them up for sale elsewhere. :tcool:

So I went to see the movie last night (by default was really going to watch DBZ) 730pm showing in Edgewater, NJ. Was lucky enough to get a free pair of the Limited Edition 3D glasses & poster. Called everywhere this morning and only was offered a bandana. Called the theatre I went last night and was told they only had received 250 glasses and were all gone by the end of the night. Google said certain theaters were getting these glasses.

[JonesyKitty]

Our local Regal Cinemas didn't do the glasses but they gave us exclusive dog tags!

[dindin]

Just came back from the theater. I initially passed on these but once I got to my seat and saw people with them I had to get them. After the movie, I went back out but there were only 2 Donnie masks left still in the bags and 1 Mikey on display. So I bought a donnie mask and asked for the Mikey on display. I hope they get more, I'd like to get the Raph and Leo. My son is loving them.

BTW, I'm in Toronto, ON, Canada. Saw the show at the Queensway theater for you locals.

Crap. Hope my theatre still has them tomorrow... :tconfuse:

Which theater do you plan on seeing it in? If there are some left tomorrow, let me know. I may make a quick trip.

I asked one of the workers if they were getting more, and she told me maybe. But you never know how much the workers at concession know at Cineplex.

We're going to the North Oshawa Cineplex.

There's a smaller theatre in my actual town, but it's older and tiny so I rarely go. You don't need a ticket to access to concession stand so I may pop in there tomorrow morning and see if they have them...just to be safe. I've already made the 'daddy promise' to my son and got him all excited. I never thought they'd be selling out!

That 'daddy promise' is a killer. My son is 2 and a half but I feel horrible if I tell him something and I do otherwise. The theater I went to is in South Etobicoke and is pretty popular. People from downtown drive out there since there is parking and just off the Gardiner. There's also a new VIP section and two AVX screens. So I'm not surprised it sold out there. I may stop off in the Coliseum tomorrow during the day to see if they have Raph and Leo masks. Those seem to be the popular ones.

They may also just be allocating stock so it lasts over the weekend. May also be a case of someone being too lazy to get another box from the back. Who knows!

[beeshaw]

My local theater didn't have them. Now I'm nervous!

Edit - and all sold out. :(

[nellyp]

Went to the TMNT movie on Thursday for the early screening and got some of the 3D glasses and the collector cups...for the kids of course. They are pretty cool...for the kids of course. Wish the kids would stop playing with and losing my cup toppers. I mean the kids cup toppers. :tgrin:

nelly you lucky dog! i need those my regal has none! im in cali

[IndigoErth]

Awww... the masks AND cups?? Lucky...

Saw it at a Regal as well, not a thing. Not even a cardboard cut out anywhere, just the posters on the wall.

Honestly, you know how places like Disney are covered in gift shops, and some of their biggest attractions exit through one? Wouldn't you think theaters would just have a straight up gift shop and carry an amount of merchandise for their current newest movies? What better time to get people to pick up a t-shirt and whatnot on their way out.

[prophecy718]

So I need help getting this :-?

Preferably in NY..but if anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated

My local theatre only had the regular colored glasses but not the bandana styled ones

Don't we all... Sadly it seems the larger majority of theaters did not bother.

That actually kinda bummed me out a bit over that, after the Pizza Hut thing largely bombed as it was. This stuff was not this hard to get right years ago.

Hoping to get hold of the blue ones still at some point, but could be wishful thinking.
