    Will the Nvidia 3D Glasses and appropriate Nvidia GPU support all 3D movies , or are there all sorts of different methods out there ?
    If not , what chance would you have , that a particular movie would be supported by those glasses ?

    Current 3D content use active shutter glasses, which is what the Nvidia 3D glasses are. You will be fine. The other option is passive 3D glasses but those aren't really being used at the consumer level right now, and even if they were, passive 3D glasses would only cost a dollar or two if you wanted to switch to that. However I doubt that would happen anytime soon since current 3D movies/games are only designed for active shutter glasses.
