"avatar" in 3d

jihiggs

holy crap fellas, that was truely a remarkable experience. I had no idea 3d movies had advanced so much. this is a far cry from the blue/red 3d experience of jaws back in the day. these days they use polarized lenses, whatever that means. but the scenery in this movie was just jaw dropping in 3d. I sat absolutely stunned by what I was seeing for the first hour of the movie, I actually had a grin on my face, and thats rare for me. the movie itself was entertaining, though it does have a hippy/new age tree hugger propoganda element to it. other than that, it was probly the most imaginative piece I have ever seen.

Saw it tonight.... It's Bad A$$... completely off the chain. Visually stimulating and very thought provoking. Half way through it I too found a huge grin on my face and saying "I already can't wait to see this again!" But yeah- the 3D has come a long way since I saw "Honey I shrunk the kids" @ MGM mid 90's. Avatar is THE must see movie of the year!!

I have yet to see a live action film done by James Cameron that I have not enjoyed, all have been amazing. I'm looking forward to seeing this.

I really couldnt tell you, I was too distracted by the realistic immersion. thinking about seeing it again this weekend, and im a cheapskate, never see a movie twice in the theater.

I can't wait to see this movie 3D or not.

Worth seeing. I was on the fence too before seeing it, and I'm glad I went and saw it.

Good to know. I'll have to see about renting it when I get home.

The game is already out. It comes in a package deal as well, you get the system and two games I think...

The games they give out with the systems as bundles are historicaly terrible, with the exception of a few... I normaly just give the free games away, usualy to my brothers who will play anything

Avatar looks really great! I'll probably go by myself during a matinee (cheaper then). Wife doesn't care for the sci-fi type. Maybe I can convince her to go if there's a romantic theme. Of course, the 3D thing is cool. Wife couldn't take that, tho...motion sickness. Can you see the movie ok w/o the glasses? I know the glasses add to the experience but I'm wondering about when it comes out on DVD.

jihiggs

the movie without the glasses is wierd looking, but watchable I guess. just that everything has a shadow to it, kindof blurry looking but not really.

Scrambler

I think it would be really annoying to watch in IMAX 3d without the glasses. You have the same image being broadcast twice on the screen, so everything would be seen in double vision. I don't know how RealD 3D would look without the glasses, their system works differently.

I just got done watching this in 3d and it was pretty damn good. The story was a little sappy but damn entertaining and the visuals were mind blowing. Literally, my brain was stuck on the seat in front of me.

Hey Scott! I too get some motion sickness/migraines from fast flashy movies. This movie has a little bit for everyone though... A sappy romantic story line and some bad a$$ fight scenes. However, I did end up taking my glasses off and/or going to the bathroom (long movie) when the battle scenes started. You could always go and try it for the first 20 min or so with a back up movie in mind. We've had to get a refund or switch movies on more than one occassion because a movie was to flashy or had unstable camera work. Good Luck & let us know!

I saw it last night, but the theater only posted the times of the non-3D movie, and didn't specify which one was posted, so when we got there we were late for the 3D version and had to watch the normal one or go home. It was 2 bucks cheaper so we settled for non-3D and it was pretty awesome...

Fourtotheflush

Im with you Nezell. My theater only posted non 3-D times also. We go there and missed the 3-D version. I plan on going again, It Was That Good! If you havent seen it go to the bathroom before hand as its abouth 2:45 long. Im pretty good about it, but 3 hours and a huge soda and I had to take a leak near the end! Story was great! I will go and say that this movie may be the younger generations STAR WARS here! It was that good.....
