Those damn anaglyphs

years ago. I could never get the 3D to fix for more than a minute or so.
Almost turned me off to stereo in general, and certainly to "stereo" movies
from the '50s. Didn't anybody tell those jackasses what they were doing
wrong? It certainly couldn't have been that big an expense to correct the
situation -- just re-master and don't mess with the interocular. Me, I'm just
waiting for the laserdisk.>>

Don't hold your breath! Criterion had a chance to do ANDY WARHOL'S 
FRANKENSTEIN in 3D but, they put it out flat. I would like to see someone do
the 3D classics from new prints using the field sequential method. OK it does
have flickering but, it can be reduced by lowering the contrast on you TV. 
3D-TV does a nice job but, I think most of there prints come from old 
Japanese laser discs that came from pretty bad prints.
