    First the worst of the star wars films, now Titanic, Godzilla being planned, and probably others on the way.
    Are people really stupid enough to pay a tenner each just to see it in 3d?

    I'd pay a tenner not to see Titanic in 3D.

    I don't like the 3D effect. It gives me a headache :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,443 ✭✭✭Bipolar Joe


    3D gives me migraines. Dunno why. I really hope this doesn't become an actual thing where there's no option but 3fuckingD

    "Mesa thinkin yousa not gonna pay a tenna?"

    If I wanted to see a bad version of The Phantom menace, I'd watch The Phantom Menace.


    Alternative Joke:
    If I wanted to see a bad version of The Phantom Menace.... I don't.

    But they are all soooo bad. How could you determine EP1 to be the worst?

    It's got the most Jar Jar Binks in it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,009 ✭✭✭✭Run_to_da_hills


    Titanic 3D may be worth while going just for the effects but it is a pity to have to put up with a three hour script of pure Holywood sentimental crap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,528 ✭✭✭foxyboxer


    I could understand a Titanic re-release what with it being the 100th anniversary and all.

    Somehow I don't think that any of the box office will be donated to any charities though.

    On the other hand, I can't fathom why the Phantom Menace is re-released other than an annual Lucasfilm money grabbing exercise.

    I mean this in all seriousness when I say, Jar Jar Binks was the best thing to happen to Star Wars.

    People are idiots, I had someone tell me I could not have enjoyed Avatar because I didnt see it in 3D.

    I prefer 36DD porn, 3D doesn't cut it for me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,059 ✭✭✭Sindri


    Don't see the point of 3D. If I want it I'll go out side the Cinema and look around.

    hmm titanic in 3d? may be just worth it if extra 3d was added to the 'draw me like one of your french girls' scenes :D

    Titanic is a hundred years old?

    Jeepers - Leonardo De Caprio has aged well.

    I don't recall does 3D mean you can actually touch them?

    That clip is 13 seconds long... :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,573 ✭✭✭pragmatic1


    Gah titanic is one of the worst pieces of shyte ever filmed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,818 ✭✭✭Minstrel27


    I watched The Phantom Menace again in 2D recently and i think if they had a different actor for Anakin Skywalker and changed Jar Jar's voice it probably could have been much better.

    Personally I find The Phantom Menace to be Lucas's best work...

    It has five seconds worth of movie in it. The rest is credits by the dude who made the video.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,706 ✭✭✭Voodu Child


    3D re-releases are a load of bollix, if it wasn't shot with two cameras then it's impossible for it to be 3D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,376 ✭✭✭✭rossie1977


    3d is good for short films/attractions at themeparks like spiderman, terminator 2, shrek , mickeys philharmagic, honey i shrunk the audience etc, i can't see the attraction of sitting through a 3hr movie in 3d though

    Safety concerns preventing it from happening.

    The storyline for Avatar was hopelessly lame and predictable! It relied 100% on effects.

    And that's where I can see Hollywood going - feck-all thought put into the scripts and screenplays and trying to distract audiences from that fact using CGI.

    Cinema won't be worth going to!

    oh I didnt enjoy it. that was the point I HAD to see it in 3D to enjoy it is what I was told. A piece of shít is still a piece of shít dosent matter how you polish it.

    I hope 3D doesn't become dominant because I can't see the damn thing. The effect doesn't work for me.

    Then they'll just blame their losses on piracy as always.
