Designer1 Posted December 1, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2012 The Hobbit: an Unexpected Journey had it's premier the other night, it's heavily embargoed but a few fawning comments have come out. A list of places in the UK showing in it's full, 3d, 48fps version has also popped up and er... well, if you want to see it in 48fps, there about 10 places in the entire country you can. And IIRC, 2 of them are in Derby. Closest to Brum is in Dudley. I'm tempted to make the trek into the Black Country just to see what the fuss was about. Yep, my regular cinema (Showcase Dudley) is one of the ones showing it in 48fps, which i'm quite chuffed about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted December 1, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2012 Just back from End of Watch - Absolutely superb imo. Looking forward to seeing Sightseers tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 1, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2012 Heavily exaggerated, and at that point I'd not seen a full confirmed list, evidently. At that point it looks like only a few early confirmations were on the list I'd seen. That is a better selection obviously, but considering the film(s) are meant to be an argument fur high frame rates, it's still a really limited release.

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Hm, I'd say it is limited to some degree. 48fps, that is. Every cinema will have the Hobbit, most will have 3D, but only the Imax cinemas (usually hte Odeon) will have the preferred experience. So yeah, it is limited if you want the 48fps experience. Similarly, The Master was shot on 70mm but no cinema is showing it in that format from what I gather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 1, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2012 You could go to any cinema in the land and see it in release, but for the full shebang, high frame rate and all, its undeniably a limited release for what Jackson hopes is a watershed moment in cinema. Admittedly I was wrong with that early list I had seen but still, its not exactly a great showing for 48 frames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic_bouma Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Watched Ted last night glad i waited so long McFarlane is a genius for Family Guy but really hit a bum note for this one i laughed twice - the supermarket scene and the hooker scene putting up the xmas tree today and as is the tradition in the Bouma household its done with xmas film marathon on the box got National Lampoons, A Christmas Carol (Jim Carrey) and Home Alone 1&2 lined up easily makes up for Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I saw Good Will Hunting for the first time Friday night. Top notch screen play, it felt a little "for the stage" at times but not necessarily in a bad way. Even more impressive when you consider it was written by a couple of lads in their early 20's. genuinely moving. Also saw Touching the Void. Fascinating story, well told even if I didn't appreciate the way they crowbarred a few arty farty shots in towards the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I'm now hearing that The 'obbit is making people feel nauseous with its frame rate and 3D. Don't know whether to watch it on IMAX 3D with a sick bag or go for plain old 2D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
