Why were 3D movies invented?

The impact of TV when it got going, on movies was tremendous.   Theater owners wanted to give their patrons something more.
Color was more, for a while.   Stereo sound and surround sound was more, for quite a while.   Wide screen was more, and 3D was more.
But as fascinating as 3D was, people didn't like the glasses.   They didn't like the headaches.   Nevertheless 3D was part of the
"more than TV has to offer" that the movie people came up with to get audiences back in the theaters.
