The Avengers 3D Glasses

The Avengers is sure to be one of the bigger hits of the summer. Marvel has been building this one up since the release of Iron Man back in 2008 and fans have been waiting not so patiently for the pay off. The last few movies have suffered a bit in my opinion with the focus on the stories giving momentum to this huge on screen team-up and even promotional stuff for The Avengers so far has looked underwhelming. That won't stop it from becoming a huge success though. Add the 3D format to the hype and the box office numbers should definitely be in contention for the top spot of the year.

Marvel is releasing exclusive 3D glasses designed around the 4 main heroes for an extra price when you go see the movie. I don't know if they will add these purchases to the final box office number, but I certainly wouldn't fork over even more money for an already overpriced viewing of a movie that probably looks better in 2D anyway. Some fans will feel that these are a must though and another unnecessary product will be sold!
