Re: Films You're Excited About
Damn, none of my friends want to see it in 3D...While I am aware 3D is by and large just hype, it doesn't mean that it is -less- of an experience than 2D, geeze. I'm assuming it's in 3D, by the purely awesome CGI effects of course =P

From what I u nderstand about the Avengers, which I am really looking forward to is that you must watch Captain America and Thor first. The Events in those 2 films are directly linked to what happens in the Avengers.

Re: Films You're Excited About
Thor I haven't seen but know it's supposed to be related. And for anyone who saw Captain America, I had a pint with Howard Stark a month ago Oh yeah!
And you're missing my point Yin, 3D is not what it's cracked up to be by any means. But it's just silly to say that 2D is the way to go unless you actually suffer from some of the effects of 3D like headaches and such. I don't, so it's perfectly awesome =P

Re: Films You're Excited About
I'm big, but it's more for the cost. Going to the movies is ridiculously expensive here in NZ. A ticket will cost you about $17 dollars for 2D and around $20 for 3D, then the price of snacl and drinks and you could be looking at around $60 just for 2 people. I think it costs us around $80-100 just for the family to go, which is why we don't go or wait until we can ticket deals that bring it down to around $60-80.
It's stoopidly expensive here in NZ.

Re: Films You're Excited About
It's around $12 per person for a 3D film over here and $10 for a standard film, though that's only a rough estimate!

Re: Films You're Excited About
@bowl - I have no idea mate. They keep hiking the prices and yet plebs still keep paying it. The cinema owners will argue that shipping costs to get the print to NZ will drive the price up. And they wonder why people here in NZ download films illegally in NZ.
On the subject of downloading, there was a really interesting interview with Kim Dotcom the other night. He basically lambasted the current business model of Big Content and told them if they want to stop piracy they needed to reduce the cost to purchase films by cinemas and release them in every location in the world at the same time, rather than go for the pirates. Once this occurs the 'loss in revenue' will cease, and he suspects that profits will rise sharply. He simply said they are running an archaic business model that no longer works in the 21st Century and need to change to better, more modern, business models.

Re: Films You're Excited About
Sounds like 'Dotcom' hit the nail partially on the head. It's not the pirating itself that is the problem, it's the cause of pirating. Subsequently, by stopping piraters you're not solving the problem.
The big corporations prefer to bury their heads in the sand than face the issue head-on, typically. Pirating is convenient and usually safer than purchasing a game! If retailers stopped short-changing their customers by refusing refunds, avoided anti-piracy software and only sold games that were -completely- finished (none of this modern day updating of issues afterward, look at the early Final Fantasy franchise, they deliver a game that is fully playable.)
The concept of game updates and DLC will be the death of videogames at home. Too commercial!

Ya Project X looks like its gonna be good. But it brings the question, how the hell did they get the funds to throw a party like that being that they are in highschool.

Get a bunch of people together and ease them out of a handful of money each...it works wonders My brother pulled one hell of a party a few years back, had over 200 people in our house alone

Re: Films You're Excited About
Wrath of the Titans looks to be big-budget, but I'm not sure if it'll be that interesting. I only just managed to pay attention in the first one when they had Gemma Arteton sauntering around. Doubt I'd be able to get through it again =P

This? Looks okay but it's not really telling me much about the film.
What's it about? =D

Re: Films You're Excited About
Thats it. Everyone is losing their shit over it. Sequel in the works, third movie being planned and of course US remake has been green lit.
Plot is simple, cops go to a building to arrest bad guy, building is full of more bad guys than cops, cops are trapped and need to escape.
