Yeah whoever told you it was just for the glasses was misinformed. I went to a panasonic training seminar about 3d and it included information about the costs of adapting a cinema for 3d, and it's VERY expensive. Not just because you need the 3d projectors, but also because they need a better quality screen, too, AND the cost of buying in lots of glasses. I don't remember it all now, but the cost goes into the 10s of thousands.
