The trailer is great! I hope the movie is just as good. Thumbs up for Michael Keaton.
Ratatouille is such a phenomenal movie. I keep asking for it for my birthday and Christmas but no one will help me out! Maybe I can find it on amazon for cheap...
I enjoyed Avatar, but kept wishing I'd seen the 2D version. The 3D was generally well done, but I kept finding myself looking at it rather than at the film. Which is too bad, because visually the film is spectacular.
I may adapt to letting the cameraman focus for me in 3D. I wonder if early audiences had to do that for 2D. "Hey, why's that bit out of focus?" "Cuz it looks better that way." "Really?"
Let's just not forget that there are a lot of people out there who just can't see 3d because their eyes aren't properly synchronized, or they are blind on one eye. Not to mention the annoyance of wearing 3 glasses and glasses on at the same time.
Heh, no, 3d will never be a big hit with me and my friends...
THANK you! I am totally with you on the whole 3-D thing. I considered seeing Avatar in 2-D and everyone looked at me like I was nuts, but I feel like a movie has to be equally good without the bells and whistles. Since no one would join me, I ended up not even bothering.
I liked 3-D when I saw Coraline, because it felt like it just added some more depth and dimension to the scenery and it didn't throw things in my face. Found it inoffensive in Nightmare Before Christmas. Hated it in Beowulf (and, well, hated Beowulf altogether...ugh) because it made me dizzy and didn't add a whole lot to the mediocreness of the rest of the movie.
I actually never saw Up in 3-D, but the movie itself is so heartbreakingly wonderful that I'm okay with that. It's hands-down my favorite Pixar movie now, followed by The Incredibles. Even though it makes me sob like a little girl, it also fills me with such JOY by the end. What a great journey.
I watched Aliens vs. Monsters in 3D. I want to say it was the same price as 2D or only a dollar more. It was all right. I find IMAX 3D to be a huge ripoff.
Then again, my movie-watching habits were formed by my parents' attitudes. Namely, why should we spend money to watch that in the theater when we can just wait a year and it'll be on TV for free?
