Luckily they weren't. I'm a tech geek and have tried out some cool stuff in my life but the 3D experience at Disneyland is the coolest thing since rumble-pack. No kidding. It was so convincing that I even screamed and dodged with my head when things was coming out of the screen. Even 25-40 years old dudes where screaming too, the experience was so convincingly real that I will see the show several times again, the next time I visit disneyland.

The 3D process used at that attraction is achieved using glasses. Polarized light is certainly the best 3D experience one can have, and pretty old technology. The same technique used on "Honey I Shrunk the Audience" premiered wayyyy back in 1985 when Michael Jackson's "Captain EO" debuted - in the very same theatre.

Oh such memories... I remember the lines were so long - they snaked through the entire park - Just to see Michael Jackson in 3D!
