How about no show at all, and we advertise 2 hours of peace and quiet for $5.00.

Some people might actually like that!

Vue cinemas in this country mark their 3D performances with '3D' on their website and self-service kiosks. 2D performances just have the film title. For example, you might see "Toy Story 3 3D" and "Toy Story 3" as separate films. However, since the '3D' marker is part of the movie title and in the same font, people may well miss it!

Far better would be to make a small but prominent 'in 3D' graphic and place it next to the movie title. That way, people would easily be able to see which performances were in 3D. If someone is stupid enough to assume that 3D movies are released ONLY in 3D, and don't look for the '3D' marker on the movie, they deserve what they get [Big Grin]
