It's going to be interesting to compare 48FPS and 3D to a regular experience.

[Rudolf]

I imagine most people interested will go for the best available format first and later do repeats in 2D for comparison.

I've never seen any LOTR - will I need to before watching The Hobbit?

[Robertron]

I'm definitely going to watch it in 48fps

It's a prequel, so you don't need to see them, but you should anyway.

You've never seen LOTR , Hobbit is set well before it and no Fing idea how they make 3 movies out of it.48fps well its new , but from what I'm told by people who have more production knowledge then me and along with those I know that did actually see the hobbit fotage at 48fps is it make a movie set look like a movie set(ie tell its fake) a sporting event at 48fps would look really good, a film in 3D with lot of green screen or an animated film probably, a movie set with no or little green screen etc will look like a movie set.anyway i think the jury is still way out on the 48fps thing (and Cameron has said he intends to shoot next Avatars at 60 fps ) but a lot atm aren't warming to it at all, so guess we will see.

I understand the technology is already used, but watching it on the big screen will be a whole different ball game.

Is it likely that all 3D sessions will be in 48fps?

On both Event and Hoyts' fb pages, people have been questioning which sites will be showing 48fps.Event has a list on their website, not too sure about Hoyts (they're shit at practically everything)

Village are clearly showing which ones are HFR. It looks like Warner Brothers is really trying to limit how many theatres have it.6 village in melbourne do

Argo looks to be easily #1 again this weekend. Seven psychopaths is doing well.

Easily. Just got back from my second viewing of Argo. The theatre was around 85% full. If that's anything to go by, it won't have that much of a drop. WOM here has been very good.

[Ball Lightning]
