And so it begins. As blogs and papers break the so-called embargoes around the globe, high praise for James Cameron’s 3D game-changer (and subject of much anticipation, ire, speculation and geek-rage) is probably making many of the nay-sayers come (at the very least) close to reconsidering. Good news for whomever floated that $300+ million dollar price tag.

For fair criticism this film deserves to be seen in 3d and 2d, in order to evaluate the importance of 3d. So far I have not been impress with 3d. Nevertheless, I will watch this film first in 3d.

I am very skeptical about the whole thing due to the over-hype James Cameron has been spewing out for the last 2 years or so. However, I’m still hoping it’ll be a fun, visually arresting film. I’m not expecting a revolution, which are the bits of hype that p*ss me off, just a good night at the cinema.
In fact I’ve already booked tickets to see it in Imax 3D, which should hopefully be the ultimate way of seeing it. Watch this space for a full write up.

These lucky basterds got to see the film early. I’m jealous.
