3D - The Third Dimension

[QualityChimp]

I saw it at the cinema and enjoyed it, but yeah, it's definitely worth a watch, especially in 3D.

One thing I noted at the time is that the original anime was really influential and we've had decades of sci-fi nicking bits off it, so by the time the film came out, it felt a little derivative, but it's actually being really faithful to the source.



That Lotus is mint, though!
I also like Aramaki's car.

And the car in the background on that photo, is a Subaru XT.

I thought it was Japanese, because there's an above shot and there are big vents in the bonnet!

Ooooh bit of an old thread revive here but thought this might be the best place for a quick question & just afetr advice on how peopel feel about kids watching 3D movies?

Chloe is 7 & a half now & I seem to remember reading years ago that 3D wasn't really suitable for kids under 7 because of the eyes developing still.
Was this the case or was it rubbish & also do you think she will be ok to finally start watching some 3D stuff?

It was mostly a precautionary guideline as the effects weren't truly all that known and it mostly applied to longer term exposure, like you might get playing games on the 3DS which is where it came up more. A two-hour movie isn't going to have much effect on the eyes and she is already above that 7 year old threshold so I'd you're fine.

Sweet, I thought it was more to do with the 3DS but couldn't remember if it applied or not

Just had some new 3D glasses through & with the current shut in we are planning a 3D movie & Pizza night tomorrow
Chloe is super excited about the prospect of being able to watch a 3D movie properly & the new glasses are frankly amazing from what I tried the other day when I paired them

Thanks again Mr Thang

Just a quick report but we just finished our 3D movie evening & it was a blast

First up these were the new 3D glasses I picked up
Excelvan rechargeable specs
Absolutely amazing...so much better than the Samsung things I'd been is using before




We tried them out watching this



Had been told it was a good movie with really good 3D effects & I can confirm that
The 3D is used to great effect, the depth of field is fantastic & it also has some really great pop out moments too
Highly recommended if you haven't seen it

Looking forward to doing some others soon
