My First Ever 3D Movie Experience: Avatar...

Last night was a milestone of sorts, for it was the first time I ever watched a 3D movie!

Ironic, considering the last short film I did was in 3D too, but perhaps it's because of that that I'm finally more interested and excited about this whole technology.

Anyway, the director of the short film, Marcus, helped get tickets for some of us who were interested, and we headed over to GV Grand to watch...

AVATAR (3D)

I had initial misgivings due to the fact that I had some eye condition since young that caused some misalignment (similar to lazy eye), and I was never able to view those 3D images or videos even with those cheap paper blue-red glasses.

But I can finally say for sure that I'm now a fan not just of " " the movie, but also of the whole 3D movie experience thing!

These were the Dolby 3D glasses we wore at the cinema:

They were heavy and uncomfortable to wear, but after a while I was so immersed in the movie that I barely remembered I was wearing them.

I'm not sure if I'm seeing it right, but the 3D effects seemed to flow seamlessly as if it were the most natural thing in the world, which it is supposed to be anyway, but once I got used to the glasses, I felt as if I was right in the scenes myself, and everything was so... REAL...

As for the movie itself, I would not be writing any reviews of it, except to say that it is truly a work of genius and full of heart, and I love it so much I am planning to watch it in 3D again with my family members soon! :)

Oh, and I secretly wished I could live in Pandora and be at one with nature. Of course, being 10 feet tall would be nice for a change too... :)
