Avatar 2

[Ja Rhule]

To hit big screens in 2016.  Here's a catch... it will be such a high quality that most movie theaters won't be able to handle it.

 

 

 

James Cameron has openly confirmed that he is seriously looking into shooting the film in higher frame rate which, as he stated, takes the glass out of the window to reality. Possible frame rates of interest are 48fps or even 60fps. This would inflict that either a downgraded version would be required for release in the majority of theaters across the world or this movie would be a pioneer in the attempts to get HFR into cinemas worldwide.

The Hobbit was filmed in 48FPS.

To me, this is another 'if it aint broke..' Its just another avenue to charge more for an already outrageous cost of going to the movies.....

 

• The limit of human perception: There is no reason to show more frames per second than the viewer can perceive. The exact limit of human motion perception is still up for scientific debate, but it is generally agreed that there is an upper threshold after which people can’t appreciate the difference.

Examples of How Different Frame Rates Are Used

Film is especially flexible in that it can be photographed and played back with a diverse range of speeds. Some examples are:

• 1 frame per hour: Extreme time-lapse photography.
• 1 frame per minute: Time-lapse photography and stop-motion animation.
• 18 frames per second: Early motion picture films.
• 24 frames per second: Worldwide standard for movie theater film projectors.
• 48 frames per second: Slow-motion photography (because it takes twice as long to play back in a 24 fps projector, the motion is twice as slow).
• 300+ frames per second: High-speed cameras for very slow-motion photography (often used for miniatures to make models seem larger on screen).
• 2500+ frames per second: Very high-speed cameras for special effects such as pyrotechnic photography and explosions.

James Cameron, Raising the bar since 1997.

Good to hear. Avatar 2 needs to have some sort of gimmick like Avatar 1.0, which was awesome visually but the story was derptastic.

Asylum already made Titanic II. And yes I watched it.

 

Cameron would need to call it T-2 :P

Yeah, he really needs to put as much focus on his storytelling as his visuals.  It was the first movie I saw in 3D, and after the movie I was so gitty about how cool the CGI was that it wasn't until I parked my car after coming back that I said 'Man, that movie really sucked'.

But they already saved the forest in the first Ferngully movie.

[Mr. Scot]

If it's like the first one, the effects will be top notch.

 

The story will be utter crap.

[SOJA]

what's more unoriginal: 

 

the avatar storyline

 

or the internet bandwagon hating on avatar's story

[Mr. Scot]

More entertaining than Avatar itself...
