Next year is destined to be another great one for geeks. First there’s the conclusion to Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, then there’s the return of Middle Earth in the first of The Hobbit movies. And judging from the trailer, it’s going to be every bit as amazing as hoped.
While it’s probably the only 3D movie we’re keen to see here at Giz, it’s also going to be one of the best movies of the year. And that’s not even factoring in the Lego deal…

It’s good to see that movie cinemas are getting the hint and are showing 3D and 2D versions alongside each other at the same time.

Also the cameras they’re using are top of line 3D cameras, he has a bunch of webisode things out on behind the scenes, where he explains the choice of shooting in 3D etc. Was rather interesting.

Wednesday, December 21, 2011 at 3:12 PMEither way watching a 3D movie is like reading a a good book with bad grammar: It’s still a good book with a good story but I have to try focus through the distractions to get the same enjoyment.

Wednesday, December 21, 2011 at 3:49 PMYou don’t have to watch it in 3D.
Besides, in 2027 when we finally have glasses free, non-vomit inducing 3D cinema technology, you can then enjoy The Hobit in all of it’s glory rather than have some other Peter Jackson Wannabe convert it to 3D later on and ruin it.
OKHappynow?

Wednesday, December 21, 2011 at 5:30 PMForget the 3D; the big news here is that it’s being shot at 48fps. That drastically reduces motion blur & judder, and greatly increases realism and immersion. It even makes the 3D easier on your eyes!

Wednesday, December 21, 2011 at 9:25 PMMight have to go look at those webisodes showing the behind the scenes, because in LOTR they used a lot of camera tricks instead of post production to make the hobbits look smaller (the first scene with Frodo and Gandalf on the cart was done but having Elija Wood sitting way back on a cart that got progressivly larger to throw off perspective, but with 3D they cant do that.
