I have very good information from a top source that tells me another GREMLINS movie is coming to the silver screens and it will be in stereoscopic 3D!

Cinemablend adds a few details:

The rumor of an impending Gremlins 3 in 3D comes incredibly early on in the process, which means there’s no cast, no crew, no start date, and no release date anywhere in sight. All we know is that somewhere someone is writing it, it may or may not be Chris Columbus  who penned the original, and that Joe Dante will probably not be back to direct.

Cinemablend also notes that Gremlins 3 could see CGI monsters replace the original puppets (boo!), and while my hopes are high, my guess is we'll see an entirely new cast as well - making it more of an animated Gremlins spinoff than an offical entry in the series.

Just a quick reminder to pick up your 3D "Grammy" glasses this week at Target.

The Michael Jackson-branded glasses come in sheets of four and can be found on a DVD end-cap near Electronics. Remember when folding: The red lens goes over the left eye!

So how do these cheap, paper freebies perform? In a word, outstanding!

I put them up against my usual Rainbow Symphony cardstock glasses (40 cent each, minimum order of 50), and all of the images I looked at had less ghosting (the red banding that appears on contrasty edges) AND deeper, richer black levels. I did not perceive any difference in brightness.

I knew they would be free, but I didn't know they would be this good.

Free 3D Glasses will be available at Target stores until Jan. 31, or while supplies last. The Grammy Awards air Jan. 31 on CBS at 8 p.m. EST.

Here's an interesting way to test your depth perception.

In this game by Seryozha Kotsun, you use the up and down arrows to control your shooter's z-depth, while using left/right and space to turn and fire.

The goal is to clear out the surrounding "bubbles" within the time limit without getting hit by the sliding bars. Bonus bubbles provide extra energy points and clock time.

The design is simple, clean and clever - and looks great in motion.

Play the game on Kongregate.

Marketsaw reports from a mega-ultra-secret insider at ILM that Ghostbusters 3 is going 3D.

This is exactly the kind of fun, over the top movie that deserves the 3D treatment. And it means we can look foward to the obligatory "shooting proton steams into the audience to snag an overhead Slimer" scene. Should sell a few Blu-rays, too.

All major cast members (sans the retired Rick Moranis) will return. Ivan Reitman is directing from a script by Year One writers Lee Eisneberg and Gene Stupnitsky.

Grammy producer Ken Ehrlich, looking to properly pay tribute to Michael Jackson (and increase ratings) will present a 5-minute 3D clip from Jackson's Earth Song.

As for the free glasses, according to MSN Music News:

"Viewers can get free 3-D "Grammy" glasses from Target stores nationwide from Jan. 24 through Jan. 31, when the 52nd annual Grammy Awards will air live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on CBS (8 p.m. EST)."

The image of the glasses provided by the Recording Academy makes them appear to be of the Red/Cyan flavor (used by 3D Manifesto and most anaglyphic 3D images), but then there's this, from the LA Times:

Ehrlich said that glasses won't be required to enjoy the segment, and that those without them will see the full performance, sans 3-D imagery, without impairment. Glasses obtained for other televised 3-D events, Ehrlich said, should work for the Grammy broadcast.

That last comment has me wondering if they're actually using the Amber/Blue (ColorCode) glasses from last year's Superbowl segments. If so, the glasses will be good for watching the event, but that's about it.*

UPDATE: Phillip Heggie comments, "I asked American Paper Optics and they've confirmed it's Red/Cyan glasses they manufactured." That's great news, thanks Phillip.

Thanks to Brian Wallace for the news tip.

*My personal opinion on ColorCode: Lots of marketing, patents and expensive products built on what is essentially the same two-color anaglyph process that has been used for decades - but instead of red and cyan, it's amber and blue.
