Get Your Intel 3-D Glasses For 'Monstrous' Super Bowl
As the Associated Press outlined today, Dreamworks Animation, Intel, Pepsi/Sobi and NBC plan a big Monsters vs. Aliens upcoming movie promotion leading up to (and hint, after) the Super Bowl.
The Super Bowl ad will be presented in 3-D, and you can get your Intel and InTru3-D branded glasses - more than 150 million of them - at more than 25,000 Pepsi/SoBe Life Water displays found at local grocery, drug and retailer stores. Don't worry, the commercial will also be viewable without the glasses.
As I noted in a previous post, Dreamworks is taking the lead on a movie-making and theatrical shift to 3-D. This is not your grandfather's 3-D, with the red and blue glasses.
This first-of-its-kind 3D Super Bowl commercial break is the official debut of DreamWorks Animation's Monsters movie trailer, comes to theaters in the U.S. on March 27th and includes the voices of Reese Witherspoon, Seth Rogen and Kiefer Sutherland among others.
And as I hinted, this is not the only 3-D 'stunt' planned. Stay tuned for more...

Are the glasses already available? I don't want to miss my chance to get some. I'll be stalking the local convenience stores in town 'til I find some!

I have been to three grocery stores, one drug store, and one electronics store and no one knows about these 3-D glasses. I live in Missouri and work in Kansas, can you recommend somewhere to get these glasses? Can I order them online?
Thanks,
Desiree

Hi Desiree,
Sorry you are having difficulty finding the glasses -- they are proving to be much more popular than any of us thought.
I don't oversee the distribution or know if/where they were shipped in certain states and regions, but here are two options:
1. Another big printing will ship to Target stores on 1/30 or 1/31. Or, 2. you can also try calling 1-800-646-2904 to get a pair though I just tried and it rang a very long time before someone picked up.
