Yep, I emailed my local cinema a few days back... [In reply to] Can't Post


In Reply To
My city is more than twice as small as Trondheim and they'll be showing it in 48fps here.



Then Lucky You! Cool

I've just received an email back from the Managing Director of my local cinema (in Ambleside in Cumbria [UK]) and she's confessed that they have no plans to upgrade and that, as far as she can tell having spoken to distributors that very morning, the nearest cinema showing it at 48fps will be in Birmingham...over 150 miles away!!!! Crazy

Yes, I'm interested in seeing this new frame-rate with my own eyes; no, I'm not that interested! Laugh

PS I used the 4K locator, though, and that proved more fruitful; there are two cinemas about 45 minutes drive away that may be showing that version. Nice.
