Still need information on which IMAX theater to watch this film at. I thought I saw people discussing IMAX in KC a few years ago in a thread, but I can't remember which one. IIRC, somebody was saying how there is only 1 true IMAX screen in KC.

I usually go to the massive AMC 30 in Olathe.

****. That's far. Is that the only true IMAX screen or whatever?

The Olathe one is true IMAX size. The Indpendence one is big, but technically its smaller or LIMAX size.

The online theater finder thing said this would be in HFR 3D. Either they don't have the information right or my eyes can't tell the difference between that and the slower 3D. The action was awfully blurry, but the still shots and slower movement were absolutely gorgeous. I want the damn extended Blu-Ray already.

I just say it again in IMAX, after seeing it in a normal 2D before. It was so much more blurry, and just a little too over the top. It was fine, unless there much or sudden movement.

Saw the movie in 3d and it was easily the most amazing eye candy I'd ever seen. Looking forward to seeing again and can't wait for part 2. Bravo Pj, bravo.

Saw it tonight in Imax 3D 48FPS. A very good movie, found myself hooked until the end.
Great Stuff: The game of riddles between Bilbo and Gollum. The Cinematography was gorgeous. The returning cast from LOTR and the call backs to it... err call forwards. Bad Stuff: 48 FPS, holy shit it made all the sequences where they weren't just standing around talking, IE motion of anykind, seems like they hit the first fast forward button on the remote. All the action scenes looked faster than normal and that sucks because it was harder to pay attention to all the essentially good scenes. I don't know why he decided to do it, I honestly have no idea, but I'll be seeing the others in normal fps. The annoying combination of 3D glasses and the FPS was just annoying and made the movie less enjoyable. The dwarves never dying. The running scenes alone through the goblin area were littered with so many times a dwarf or two should've died they didn't. The first 45 minutes of the movie. You could've cut the whole part where the dwarves were bouncing dishes off their asses and the movie would've been better imo. |

Ive noticed in my area its only available at 48FPS in 3D. I wish they had a 2D 48FPS showing. I cant stand 3D.

For me, not dying wasn't a problem, but how they didn't die was a little troublesome. It's like someone decided that if an exciting action sequence is good, an over-the-top, jarringly-anti-realistic action sequence must be better. I realize this is a fantasy movie with magic and mythical creatures and that it requires a fundamental suspension of disbelief from the get go, but it just seemed a little unnecessary to me. Not a major problem at all, but just something I think could have been better.
