Thorin Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 In the car? That depends on which car and where you're sitting. IMAX Bradford certainly has no legroom though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJI Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 What about the last Samurai. Basically most films are cliche riddled. The fact of the matter was it was enjoyable, I don't thinknit ever intended to win awards for it's plot or lack there of. Instead it was meant to be a visual masterpiece. Yep, you're right. There will probably become a day when every film has a lot of elements from previous released films. And then everyone will be bored of every storyline. A bit like music in a way...there comes a point where everything released is a re-work on something that has already been done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 There is one on the south coast - Bournemouth! But yes, I agree, there needs to be more around. Which unfortunately closed back in Feb '05. What's Avatar like in 3D in a normal cinema? Do you have to wear stupid glasses and do they fit over normal specs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 My girlfriend took a hilarious picture of me at the cinema watching Avatar in 3D. I looked like Tim, nice but dim. I was so immersed in the film thanks to the 3D i totally forgot I was out in public and fell into a primevil trance pointing at the fire embers and snow flakes whilst making odd Ohh'ing and groaning sounds.

Mike Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 What's Avatar like in 3D in a normal cinema? Do you have to wear stupid glasses and do they fit over normal specs? The 3D adds something, but takes away resolution and colour (imo)... but probably worth seeing in cinemas while it's in this format. Bluray will suffice for a home viewing I would imagine. I think the glasses would fit over normal glasses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that I don't think I closed my mouth for the first two hours I would liken it to that seminal moment when you first saw Jurassic Park in the cinema and thought the dinosaurs were real In short, it's effing amazing.

Charlotte Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 IMAX Bradford certainly has no legroom though. I found it fine last time we went - which was to see 'fly me to the moon' about flies going to the moon. Not a very good film for me as I have a slight phobia of flies and subsequently spent some of the film try to bat away flies around my face. Which unfortunately closed back in Feb '05. Wow, I had no idea! What's Avatar like in 3D in a normal cinema? Do you have to wear stupid glasses and do they fit over normal specs? Yep - they're definitely ok with normal glasses underneath.

Charlotte Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 wow. Amazing film. Not necessarily the storyline, there's nothing new there. But the whole new world, creatures, language, just everything he has created. I can't think of anything like that since star wars. I want to see it again now.

creative Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 just seen this in 3d over here. The plot wasnt amazing... but the visuals were something else! I've never been and seen a 3d film before so didnt know what to expect but after getting use to the 3d'ness and trying not to focus on the out of focus bits... lol... it was so immersive!

What he said. We went with low expectations and were pleasantly surprised. Yes, the plot is average sci-fi fare but it's executed so well that you just get swept along with it. The 3D was really good although they've a looong way to go to make it seem natural. IRL you just don't see layers of 3D but maybe the technique added to the hyper-reality of the visuals. I loved the floating mountains. They've been a 'thing' of mine since I was a kid. The military hardware was very well done too. Well worth a watch in a cinema. I think it'll look rubbish at home even on a big TV with Blu-Ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 12A certificate, so up to you really, but there is quite a bit of violence (not like starship troopers), so use your discretion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyP Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 does anybody know if my 6 year old boy can get in with me. You could but it is very long and at that age a lot of the plot is going to go over his head and I'm not sure if there's enough action to keep a six year old entertained for that long.
