      I'll be there day one. There are certain franchises that get me to the movies day one of a showing, and most of the time at a midnight showing. The Lord of the Rings franchise is one that does it for me.

              Anyone going Thursday? Let some friends talk me into it more to experience Dolby ATMOS and HFR 3D than for the movie itself. Man of Steel trailer is a nice bonus.

                      Is this real? And is it because the film was shot with Cameron's new 60 FPS cameras?


                      edit: Correction. The Hobbit was shot in 48fps. Guess there's still a debate on 48 or 60fps being the future that Cameron wants.

                        I'm very surprised that there was no impressions, did anyone get a chance to see this over the weekend?

                          Yeah, I'm curious as to what the verdict is on the 48 fps by people who actually went to see it.

                            I didn't watch it in 48 fps, though I want to rewatch it in that frame rate.

                            I enjoyed the film even if it's long. I'll comment more when I rewatch it.

                              It was awesome. That's all you need to know.

                                I just saw it in 3D 48fps. Picture Quality wise, this may be the BEST movie I've seen yet. Very clean, vibrant, ALIVE. Once it's in motion though, it was totally jarring -- like you're watching one of those demo movies they use in TV showrooms. It's like watching at 1.5x the normal playing speed and it just doesn't feel like a movie.

                                I think 48fps is well suited for documentaries but for feature films, I'm not yet sure.

                                As for the movie itself, other than the first 20-30 minutes of The Shire, it's quite good. Though I do feel like the Orcs aren't as fearsome because they're now CGI.
