General Movie Discussion 2.0 - Page 13

Definitely want to know what camera you're buying it for beforehand. You're basically buying blind if not.

DSLRs, t2i/5D

t2i =/= 5d

I didn't say it did lol....Just the cameras I would be using -_-

Pacific Rim was exactly as advertised: Robots vs Monsters. Next to no character development but I didn't mind it. I bought the ticket to see robots destroy monsters and that's exactly what I got. Del Toro did a phenomenal job. If you guys end up seeing it, IMAX 3D is the way to go.

I dislike the push towards IMAX 3D. I love IMAX, hate the vast majority of 3D. The now-frequent combination feels like a pretty cheap ploy to circumvent public preferences.

Heard this one is actually amazing in imax 3d

I wouldn't be surprised if the blogosphere is saying that about this particular movie. Still feel like combining the two without offering a pure IMAX experience is a cheap ploy. Not that I blame the movie or those who actually created it.

EDIT:

Also, in reference to your earlier question, I would seriously consider going into a gear store (after doing a bit of research to narrow your options) and actually trying a few rigs. What matters most, arguably, is how it feels for you, which isn't a question that you'll get a definitive answer to from reviews, as helpful as those can absolutely be. I'm not sure what's popular in your part of the county but B&H seems pretty universal. Don't forget to take your camera body and a lens you think you'll use, just in case.
