This is me in my fabulous 3D glasses I got from the cinema when we went today. Coraline with Caroline.
I loved the 3D effects. It was my first experience of the new digital 3D technology; very impressive, especially when objects are moving slowly, and to give great depth to a set. Somehow the titles were the most impressive, with things moving behind and then in front of the text.
The film itself I didn’t like so much. I felt I was floating through a dream created by oh-so-imaginative artists, doing stuff just because they could. It’s one of those out-of-control fantasy films where you are at the mercy of someone’s artistic vision, forsaking characters and plot. But there were some great moments, especially when the alternative button world was crumbling to grey.
Was impressed with Vue Eastleigh. Way nearer than Portsmouth or Southampton and much more cutting edge than Winchester. The sound was so clear and the digital projection crisp. All new. We didn’t pay for ‘superior’ seats in leather, nor the beanbag chairs, which are all in the front row so you lie looking up at the screen a few feet away.
These glasses are like a comedy version of my own!
