February 10th, LucasFilm and 20th Century Fox will be releasing the Star Wars: Episode 1 The Phantom Menance in 3D. Regardless of how you feel about JarJar Binks, or the Kid flying the starfighter, it should be a fun afternoon eating popcorn and ducking whenever a laser bolt comes your way. And if you’re wearing these cool, collectible 3D glasses AMC Theaters will be giving away, so much the better.
In addition to these exclusive, collectible Anakin Podracing 3D specs, AMC plans to give away a host of other cool swag during the first weekend of the film’s 3D rerelease. With the purchase of a Real3D ticket (usually pushing $20, but hey, I’d drop a Jackson for that) kids will also get a Hasbro Star Wars FIGHTER PODS collectible toy. There will also be a LEGO Star Wars feature area, Darth Maul face-painting, special character appearances for photo opportunities
and demonstrations of the upcoming Xbox Kinect™ Star Wars™.
But not every AMC Theater will these special events. Check out the list below for a theater near you:
The 10 participating Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace exclusive event screening theatres are:
Atlanta: AMC Southlake 24; Boston: AMC Loews Liberty Tree Mall 20; Chicago: AMC South Barrington 30; Denver: AMC Highlands Ranch 24; Los Angeles: AMC Tustin 14 at The District; AMC Ontario Mills 30; New York: AMC Empire 25; AMC Garden State 16; Phoenix: AMC Mesa Grand 24; San Francisco: AMC Emeryville Bay Street 16
All giveaways are while supplies last, with limit of one per ticket. The promotion will take place February 10-12 only at the AMC Theaters listed above.

So, does every AMC theaters give away those glasses with a ticket purchase, or is just those select theaters?
I would assume it’s just those select theaters. But I bet you can call your local AMC Theater and verify that with the manager.
Thanks for reading.
