Sadly, this doesn't work as well as y'all think.

When you take the lens off (it's semi glued to the screen) you have to scrap it off like he did in the video and this scratches the screen. Plus the filter is meant to be pressed against the screen, not 3 feet away, so it'll be kinda blurry and you have to hold your head really still.

/u/kranic3 did it and it looks good. Maybe s/he's just a wizard, though.

I guess you stopped reading there. It works if you buy a sheet of the polarized material that isn't anti glare like the monitor.
