And are other directors following suit?
I hated the 48 fps because it made the movie look like a video game cut scene (especially the shots that were all CG) but when I was leaving the theater I heard a couple of guys saying how much they "liked the new movie process that they used". Obviously, that's not a scientific sampling but even online, I've seen far more positive reaction than negative. I'm sure that 48 fps will eventually become the standard so my hope is that Jim Cameron figures out how to do it right and not have everything appear as a PlayStation 4 game.RobertR said:That's nice, but it says nothing about how audiences in general reacted.
It seems like you have a school or college assignment (given this question and the other a page or two back) based in the book and are looking for help in this thread, right?Emanuel1 said:In The Hobbit, why do you think Bilbo was chosen to go with the dwarves to recover the treasure?
Maybe because he was the greatest little hobbit of them all.Emanuel1 said:In The Hobbit, why do you think Bilbo was chosen to go with the dwarves to recover the treasure?
Gandalf answered that question when Lady Galadriel asked why the halfling was part of the company. Gandalf explained that Saruman believes that evil can be fought by powerful people (wizards, elves and men). But Gandalf confesses he has always felt it is the gentle folk in the world who can endure and stave off evil by the simple process of love. Hobbits love simple things and they are extremely devoted to their companions.Emanuel1 said:In The Hobbit, why do you think Bilbo was chosen to go with the dwarves to recover the treasure?
Not seen it yet but I can believe that. I remember FOTR EE actually felt shorter to me and the original cut felt too long.Virgoan said:As was true of all the extended cuts of the LOTR trilogy, the extended edition of "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" is more satisfying than the theatrical cut. The scenes added actually "add" relevant information and atmosphere to the film.
I just watched the EE last night. This shot you mention lasts less than a second, and you can only see the full body really by freeze framing as the screenshot above is.SamT said:Thanks. The beginning of the movie was perfect by not showing Smaug. They shouldn't add more of him especially a shot showing his full body.
