The 3-D Ripoff!

This past weekend, we went, with an excited little one, to see the new Pixar-animated film "Up". Heard lots of good things about it and, for the most part, the movie lived up to its advance reviews by our friends.
One thing I made sure that we avoided was the lure of the 3-D showing. It can really be awesome and exciting and EXPENSIVE! The last time I wasn't as aware and wound up laying out twice as much cash than the regular movie. TWICE AS MUCH!!!! And you know what? You don't even get to keep the 3-D glasses. Of course, why would you want to?
Anyhow, about the cost....not only do you play about $3-4 extra for the privilege of watching 3-D but there is also $3 service charge PER TICKET!!! Since that last outlay of big money,we thought it would be better to wait for the 3-D DVD.
