At the Hobbit, were 3d glasses needed like they were at Disney and was the experience anything like I experienced at Disney?

p.s. I don't think I could sit comfortably through the 3 hours!

Never been to a "Honey, I Shrunk the Audience" but did see Star Trek at an Imax in Tampa near Veterans Blvd and before that one of the Matrix movies at a huge IMAX screen in downtown Tampa.

The 3D glasses were not needed at the Tampa IMAXs but you did need them at the Old Mill Playhouse's The Hobbit as without them the screen is quite out of focus.

I did notice some odd flubs in The Hobbit where you can see the special effects not quite working at 48fps.
