Titanic 3D - worth revisiting
 

The wife and I just got back from seeing Titanic 3D. Despite the sappy chick-flick love story and the somewhat nauseating androngynous twink DeCaprio...the 3D treatment really added an amazing 'you-are-there' feeling to it on the big screen.

I went in with low expectations - and was very much surprised at the new depth added to the scenes (especially during the epic sinking).

Highly recommended - especially on the eve of the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's demise. Despite my arse growing numb at the 3-hour mark, it was well worth the experience.

Best of all - the overall 3D effect with the glasses doesn't make the movie seem dim and dark (as if watching through sunglasses). Its bright and crisp from start to finish with a lot of details really popping nicely.

The ship sinks? Dude... spoiler alert. :(

Thanks for the review..! I was wondering whether to check it out or not. The movie is great of course, but I figured that since it was a 2D to 3D conversion (and not shot in 3D) that it would be lame, and since 3D movies tend to be dark I thought it would be extra bad. Good to see a positive review of the techno. I'll probably go check it out this week.

Oh and if you haven't seen this yet... enjoy!

Titanic 2

i'll pass.

Haven't seen the normal version yet.

I HATED the non 3d version of the movie... the gf wants to go to the 3d one so bad but I've flat out said no so far.

Anyone else gone and didn't find it to be horrible?

I watched the 2D version a few weeks ago before going to the 3D version last night, mostly to have a comparative basis on the improvements. Seeing it on the big screen in 3D was worth the time (I never saw the 2D in theatres when it first came out).

I told my GF they have Titanic back in the theaters and she actually asked me if they made a part 2.

Looks great! :thumbsup

The movie is amazing.. anyone saying anything else is just suffering from a lame and very worthless macho facade.. nuff said

ooooh...propeller guy in 3D

Is it wired that I want to see this movie in 3D more than my girlfriend?

Spoiler alert - they don't.

Despite the $30m spent on 3D, the crow's nest lookout still doesn't have binoculars. :1orglaugh

Sadly, Kate Winslet's titties don't benefit much from the 3D. :1orglaugh

I saw titanic the first time.the script was weak but it was enjoyable.he makes enjoyable movies not deep but entertaining.I also dont enjoy 3d to me it looks alittle sharper and gives me a headache.

didn't like the original, doubt 3d will make it any better...

I started getting a headache near the end, figuring it was the weight of the glasses over my own prescip glasses.

Yeah, the script was somewhat weak...and the love story sappy - but I read a review somewhere that pointed out how the romance ploy served as a way for Cameron to have the main characters move seamlessly from the first-class areas of the ship to steerage...to tell the whole story, rather than abruptly go from one aspect to another without a segue. It made sense from a storytelling standpoint I guess.

It was also shrewd marketing strategy - it hauled in revenues from hopeless romantic/lovestruck female teens.

At the risk of being a bit cerebral - one could also argue that Titanic serves as a poignant, modern-day allegory between the "haves" and the "have-nots" in society, the decline of the middle-class and the growing one-percenters.

Damn. I probably shouldn't have back handed her and called her stupid.

Not sure how I'm going to apologize on this one.

It is a useful reminder to see what awful taste people on this board have.

Next week we'll review a Dr. Seuss movie - just so you don't feel excluded.

Titanic 3D, starring Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio, has entered the UK and Ireland box office chart in pole position.
