Exactly that. I'm not kidding. It's like watching a movie on those TV's.

Ok, I'm sold. I was in Best Buy once and they had Pirates of the Caribbean playing. It was crystal clear. Like it was filmed with an HD camera. But it looked like a home movie. Terrible. Another time I was at my sister's house and we were watching ST:TNG, and they had the TVs calibrated the same way. They loved how it looked. I almost puked.

I AM curious, but don't have time to be curious for 3 hours.

Just do this, see it in 2D, find a point that seems uninteresting, such as the first 45 minutes, grab some 3D glasses from the bin, walk in, and watch.

my eyes hurt after the film. HURT.

The only thing I got was green Hobbit 3D glasses.

Ween if you still want to see an example of the 48 fps then look at this:

Isn't Leonard Maltin the one who thought the predator design was racist for having "dreadlocks"? That may have been someone else.

If its, not seeing it. Ever.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

So I just looked, and it's not even playing in 48 fps in my city.

Would like to know from anyone who's seen it in IMAX 24 fps 3D.

you must adapt.

I would laugh my ass off if Transformers ends up being this way too

Michael Bay would never do such a thing. It took him many a poking from James Cameron to just do 3D.

It's not here either. I would have to drive over an hour away. No way.

Can someone explain the whole fps thing to me please?

Guys worry about the fps later just go see it.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Here's the simple version.

A traditional film is shot (either done using film, or a setting on a digital camera) at 24 frames per second. So every second of the film, is 24 still images shooting together into a artificial movement.



This is a movie.

Look at the way it looks. You can tell it's a film, right?

That is obviously not a film look. It's someone's home video.

The thing is, when you change the way the film is shot, it loses the magic of what a movie is. It's no longer a movie. It's something else. Jackson wanted to strive for realism, but that's a silly notion. It's a movie. It's not meant to be real.

I think it's important. It can make or break the film for someone. It would've for me, if I didn't know a 24p version existed.

By the way, the movie studio logos looked HILARIOUS at 48fps. I couldn't stop laughing, I had to cover my mouth and almost choke, to not disturb the theater.
