I am blind in one eye so i dont go to 3d films as they are not 3D for me
However the kids want to see Dr who in 3D and are to young to go on their own
As i have not been for I dont know what they are like at all.
Does the screen have two images ?
Basically will it be unwatchable without the 3D bit using only one eye?

I reckon it'll be a bit uncomfortable to watch - like it's out of focus.

You will have to wear the glasses so you don't get a blurry picture but with only one eye the image will be 2D.

I dunno about the movies but I know our 3d tv at home, if james wears the glasses (he has one bad eye as well) it looks like a normal movie so in focus but not 3d. However, he has some vision and not totally blind in the one eye so I dont think your one eye will process the same so I think it'll look exactly the same as without glasses. It's mega annoying never going to watch a 3d movie at the movies but atleast now I can watch them at home on my own!

Mu understanding:

There are two images, polarised at a tangent.
The glasses are polarised at the same tangents so each eye can only see one of the two images.

So if you wear the glasses but can only watch with one eye then you'll see a 2D movie.
