The Hobbit 48fps/ HIGH FRAME RATE discussion thread.

[CelticPredator]

The whole point of the 48fps is so the 3D can be clearer and more fluid.

 

[King Darkness]

I watch all my movies at 76 fps.

okay so there will never be a 2D 48 fps showing then, it is only having to do with 3D

 

[CelticPredator]

Yes. if you want a 2D showing, wait for the Blu Ray, get an HDTV, and put on the smooth motion setting. There you go. Looks exactly like that.

 

[CelticPredator]

Movie kinda looked like this!

Motion smoothing is big kahkah. I know people who love it and turn their tvs to high. Its unnatural. I don't understand why every department store puts the motion smooth on for display models. Who wants their tvs to do that

And I never watch 3D in theaters, so I don't have to deal with this new form of cinematic kahkah

 

[CelticPredator]

^ Correct choice.

This movie is worth viewing it the way humanity intended it to be. Twenty Frames per glorious second!

That's where I Was going with the questions about 48 in 2D or 3D, if the 48 fps is only done to help the 3D then I think we are okay for at least a decade or more. 3D is not that big and movie theaters only show a couple of 3D shows a day, I think the 48 fps will not be a real problem for at least a few decades, at least until every single movie theater changes to 3D for all showings of all movies.

Hmm... I feel like I should've taken the time to get some more info about HFR before buying 2 tickets to see The Hobbit in HFR 3D tonight.

After reading all this, I have a feeling I'm not going to like it.

I see it sometimes on certain LED televisions that don't seem calibrated too well. Characters in a movie seem to move to fast and it all looks like a documentary. I don't like that.

I hope I'll still enjoy the film tonight though...

You really should have, it's likely to give you diarrhea and make you sterile.

 

[ironwez20]

I'm gonna have to see this for myself. I can't see it from the trailers.

 

[cokebabies]

Whenever I watch porn in 60 FPS it always feels weird.

Oh dear... I'd better wear a diaper then.

I'm gonna have to see this for myself. I can't see it from the trailers.

Yeah, that's my line of thought now as well. Tickets are bought and paid for, might as well go and see it in HFR and enjoy myself. Perhaps I even like it. Can't know if I haven't experienced it.

Sweet av & sig there buddy.

 

[BB&WSF]

Don't know the technicalities behind the HFR jazz and how it will affect the future of cinema. However, as a regular viewer, I wouldn't like to watch a movie like Hobbit in this format. The night is not dark enough and 'grainy', and day is too bright, as if the Sun has moved in place of Venus

 

[Reinhardt]

So, if not 48 fps, then you think it's worth going to IMAX 24 fps 3D? Or non-IMAX 24 fps non-3D?

 

[intothevoid]

I'm gonna have to see this for myself. I can't see it from the trailers.

Obviously you won't see it from the trailer - you can only experience it from a projector or TV calibrated to play video at 48fps

 

[Reinhardt]

I don't like 3D, but I love IMAX. I thought there was a non 3D IMAX option....

 

[intothevoid]

Watch it in IMAX 2D if possible otherwise IMAX 3D no HFR will be the next best thing
