Anyone know when these will be available??

Text

About 150 million pairs of 3D glasses are to be given away in the US so TV viewers can watch a special film trailer during the Super Bowl final.

A 90-second preview of Dreamworks' animated movie Monsters vs Aliens will be broadcast on 1 February.

The glasses will be available from 28,000 shops across the country
...
NBC, the channel which broadcasts the Super Bowl final, has also scheduled a 3D episode of its comedy-drama series Chuck on 2 February.
 
3D episode of Chuck? Hot chicks in 3D?

The glasses will be disseminated via 25,000 SoBe Lifewater retail displays in grocery, drug and other retail venues beginning in early January and will be FREE to consumers. Should a display?s supply of glasses run out, consumers can call 1-800-646-2904 in order to obtain a pair.

I hope it's the episode where Yvonne Strahovski and Sarah Lancaster are having a sleep over and a pillow fight breaks out.
 
Did anyone ever find these?

I searched at least a dozen different places and none of them even know wtf I was talking about. 🙁

I never saw them, but still got a few. My Uncle brought some last week when he visited. He found them at a Dollar General.

I'm not sure if they'll work but I got a pair of "RealD" glasses when I went to see my bloody valentine - maybe a theater will give you a pair?

Edit:

I just looked and it's the same technology in both movies. I'd find a movie theater playing my bloody valentine or any other reald movie and ask for a free pair.

I actually have a pair of those from when I saw the same movie.

I don't think it's going to work though since the 3D commercials in last nights game were that red/green style of 3D and the glasses for My Bloody Valentine are not tinted any color.
 
I found the (tiny) display in the corner near the bakery at the local Super WalMart. I looked all over the store (while shopping) and just happened to look down after getting some bread. I picked up a whole stack. (This was today, too late for the Superbowl, but just in time for Chuck!)
It looked like hardly any were gone. I figured they would have them in the center main aisles with the promotional stuff...

Why waste good space on something they'll make no money off of?

They're actually brown/blue... I had to double-check with my kid to make sure that the brown one was really brown and not green 😱
 
F.Y.I. - I used the RealD ones that I got from watching Beowulf to watch the 3D commercials last night and they didn't work (I guess the polarization was off). I'd assume they won't work for Chuck, either.
 
meh, watching Chuck in HD with the 3D-glasses (red/blue) screws up the colors. Some nice effects though. I'll try and look around for other 3D glasses and check if they work any better.
