3D/2D

yeah i wear glasses so i'm not into wearing two pairs of glasses i would prefer imax

trouble is i live in the south of england theres no decent cinemas here i mean there are plenty of cinemas but they are all old not even digital the last time i went to a cinema the picture was terrible the screen was washed out and had poor definition. I shall have to travel to london for a decent screen which i intend doing for this it will be the first time in a cinema for me in ten years so really im looking forward to the blu ray more than my first screening of prometheus.

From what I hear, Ridley is filming with 3D cameras so it wont be a conversion. I plan on seeing it in both 3D and 2D. As long as I see it I dont care.

well 2d for me first and if i can afford laser eye surgery maybe ill go for the 3d version lol

Well for me I just don't think 3D has been mastered well enough that its really worth what the advertisers make it out to be. In most 3D movies today you maybe see 1-3 things pop out of the screen and that's it. 3D to me is like every inch of the film comes out to you almost as though you could touch it all. As a viewer being able to view it in 3 dimensions is what 3D is. A few things popping out of the screen is honestly worthless. I would rather see it in 2D. Real 3D is only slightly better than regular 3D. Society has LONG way to go before 3D becomes a quality norm.

agreed i'm waiting for the hologram vision lol

I really dont give a $#!+ for 3D. it was a nice experience with Avatar or some other kids Animation movies. But i prefer Standard screen for a movie Where i focus on its content Instead of some gimmicks.

pg13? that sucks...well it might have just happened to be pg13 anyway...i can see there being more emphasis on plot and discovery than people running from an alien and getting ripped apart

Yes that is true. This will be more about discovery then being picked off by aliens. And I have seen many PG13 films that were great and the rating really did not take away from the quality. Lord of the Rings for example.

If it really is a pg 13 then i wont go to the cinema to watch it . ill rent this shit and only buy a r / 18 film

Ridley stated months ago he wanted to make a really nasty film that's what got me interested again if this is pg 13 then thats it ill never trust the hype again.... as for TLOR films their not my idea of good films sorry guys i'm just not into family films..

i hope it will be a PG13 ... more story less distractions .

hey why not go for a u frantz even better

ohhhhh well i guess ill be in the que for the hobbit to

@Alteredstate - I'm from southern England aswell, we have a lovely cinema where I live! Also, if the movie is filmed correctly in 3D like Avatar/Transformers Dark of the Moon etc then it maybe able to work.

I agree with being disappointed with the pg13 rating. I thought he could have at least went R rated just to emphasize the Horror aspect of the series. I also plan to only watch the 2d version in theater.

If a PG-13 theatrical cut is the price I have to pay for this movie to be made, I'm really not going to complain about it. The "unedited" cut will be available to anyone who purchases the blu-ray. Is anyone who hangs out on this site [i]not[/i] planning to purchase the blu-ray?

Oh man I am DEFINETALLY getting it on blu-ray. I can't fucking wait. My 55' LED Samsung TV and stereo system. Ahhhh!!! its glorious my friend.

Amen. Not to mention 7.1 DTS properly calibrated. I look forward to seeing it in the theater, in 2D. The only reason I would even consider 3D is if Ripley says that something will be missing from the experience. The other thing is depth of field... 3D films frequently have certain things out of focus and certain things in focus. It draws more emphasis to whatever is 'jumping out of the screen', but personally I want to let MY eyes determine what I'm staring at. If there's some weird design on a wall, maybe I want to stare at that instead of someone's helmet!

Yeah, I spent way too much money on a dedicated HT room, but it's better than most any of my local theaters, so it almost seems worth it, on occasion. I'll go see this movie theatrically for the midnight showing, just for the audience experience which [i]is[/i] lacking in any home setting......but it's the blu-ray I can't wait to get my mitts on.

@lyle southern England is a fair size lyle are you south east, west, or somewhere in the middle cos i'm south east Brighton to be accurate and the cinemas are not digital mate all my friends and the circle of people i know travel if we want to go see a decent film yes we got loads of cinemas but in our experience they are never calibrated for a half decent picture i can get better on my widescreen tv i think the cinema needs an industry wide makeover especially here in the uk maybe the usa has better facilities but the uk is crap in general with only a handful of decent digital cinemas in the country and a couple of places to see imax but you got to travel some way if your from my part of the country.
