Plus, I don't *think* 13 ghosts was 3D (was it?). I saw it in it's
original release, and if it's what I'm thinking about, you did indeed
get a viewer with red/blue plastic in it. However, it said on it
"Ghost Viewer" and "Ghost Remover". The actual ghost sequences were shot
in B&W and overlaid with the ghosts in either red or blue. So you could
either seem them well, or not at all (at least in theory) depending on
which part you looked thru.

Or am I thinking of something else?
