P3D T-REX in IMAX 3D

We watched the new IMAX 3D movie last night called T-REX.  The acting
was poor, but the stereo effect using the IMAX goggles was great, and
they did quite a good job on the special effects.  I'm sure much of it
was computer animated, but it was a great experience.  The goggles were
quite strange, however.  They appeared to be polorized lenses like would
be used with a stereo slide projector, but the lenses "changed" as they
were exposed to light.  Looking through one of the lenses at an angle
you could watch a gas or a liquid of some sort flow from one end to the
other of the lens.  An employee indicated that they were LCD lenses, and
I wonder how this is different from regular polorized lenses?
