I can't believe I'm saying this, but at this point I think I'm more hyped to see the whole "new dc logo/intro" thing than the actual movie XD. The opening logo was the last thing I thought I would read was so great about this movie.

First I've heard about a new logo intro. What did you read about it?
 
Angel On The Wing..so fitting. DCEU got some of the best scores for CBM genre. Can't wait to see the movie
 
I forgot to post here that I wasn't able to see the movie this past Wednesday. I live outside of Memphis where the screening was so it took me a bit to get there. I got there around 6:30pm and they said the theater was full. First come first serve they said. Except for the press who they kept letting in. My pass wasn't really worth much unless I got there an hour early lol. Lots of people got turned away including some Dads with their daughters.

I was upset at first but I'll be seeing it on Thursday next week, so I'll live.
 
Majority of 3D films being shown were made with normal camera and post-converted. You'll only get to appreciate it more if it was filmed using an actual IMAX 3D camera and projected in an actual (70mm) IMAX theatre --which in that case very rare for a feature film. It's mostly documentaries with run time of up to 1 hour that could get the most out of this technology.

But go ahead if you want to splash out a few more on 3D. heh

Correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand it, there are 3D cameras, there are 70mm IMAX cameras(the ones Nolan uses, and Snyder used for BvS), and then there are IMAX 3D cameras(that Bay is using for T5). They are all seperate.

However like you said, this wasnt shot using 3D camera, or an IMAX 3D camera, so there isnt much point in seeing it in regular 3D or Imax 3D.
 
If you plan on seeing the movie more than once, you can (of course) experiment with different formats. For me, it’s usually just once (because of the $$$). And I tend to default to the “native” format. I.e., I saw Interstellar in 15/70 IMAX because it was shot in 15/70 IMAX. WW was shot in 2D; so seeing it in 2D isn’t really a compromise (IMO).

I probably won't see it more than once unless someone invites me. Like you, it's also a matter of money, as it's expensive to go to the movies here. I didn't even watch GOTG2 as I was waiting for WW which I was more excited about seeing. Also, I don't have that much time to go to the cinema every other week.

But it's not significantly more expensive to watch in 3D, so if it's there then I would probably opt for that, but at the moment it doesn't seem to be, unless I travel further to go and watch this. I saw Dr Strange and BvS in 2D and that was fine, although probably Dr Strange would've been good in 3D.

I've barely ever watched a movie more than once in theatres though. I could probably count the number of times on one finger.
 
I will see it twice. On Thursday with friends and on Friday with my family.
My mother doesn't like action or superhero movies but she really wants to see this one.

I'm sorry your time was taken up like that :(
And yea, I've gotten tickets to showings 2-3 hours away from me, and I never end up going because the fine print says "First come first serve" and I never want to risk it.

I saw BvS twice. I really liked it the first time. But because the film had gotten such poor reviews, I convinced myself that I had severely overestimated its quality. So another screening was needed to snap me out of my delusion. Except… I liked it even more the second time. :word:

Yes, I was speaking in general.

70mm IMAX film cameras are rare --I think that they number in 30s. Probably will be phased out.

The 4K 3D digital camera is in service but I don't think that anyone used it apart from maybe Bay in one of his Transformer films.

But mostly it is the recent 2D digital camera that will be the mainstay.
 
Is it odd that Amazon is already saying that the Wonder Woman Bluray will be released around October 16 ?
 
The Alamo drafthouse women only screening is amazing marketing for the movie. Even the bad press is like "Yeah, but it's not like Ghostbusters - Wonder Woman looks good", when men are asked why they didn't support Ghostbusters.
 
Men should've demanded to be included in a women-only screening of Ghostbusters. :o

If there was not such a screening, then the men should've put one on and then got excluded from it. :o

Cool, man. I live in Memphis & I didn't even know about any screenings. I had a female friend that posted on FB that she went to one & she stays in Southaven. I wouldn't been able to go anyway, because I work nights Monday through Friday. I'm going Saturday night with the wife to Malco Paradiso or Olive Branch & probably again Sunday afternoon as well by myself. I'm sure folks know Walmart has that Fandango Movie Money with certain DC movies. I grabbed the new DC Superhero Girls movie Intergalactic Games for my little girl & got an $8 off code for WW. I'm headed back to Walmart today to get the Commemorative Edition of the animated movie too (and another $8 off code).....

I think it's actually an older one. But they've peppered the spot with critics' reviews (all raves, off course :cwink:).
 
I saw that one too. Did they get the reviews in advance or something? Or are they taken from social media?
