I think that anyone interested in 3D is unlikely to consider this an
imposition. I'm thinking more of the difficulty of mass marketing to people
who are not necessarily as interested in the 3D, as they are in just going
to a movie. Those who don't normally wear glasses may not like having to
wear them to watch (especially since glasses are a somewhat personal bit of
equipment), and those who do (I assume?) are in a position of having to wear
two pair of glasses at once. I agree there's not that much difference, but
they might not. That's where I think they might not consider it worthwhile,
and I believe that's also what the studios' position would be. Many people
don't even consider it worthwhile to see a film in a decent theater, thanks
in part to the cheap multiplexes. :-(
