I am a grumpy old man, who walked out of avatar(3d), i thought i was better of playing mass effect with my nephew.(mass effect turned out to have a better storyline). I could not stand 3d in any movie i had seen at the cinema, i thought it just was a poorly conceived gimmick! But watching the hobbit (great movie, if not quite the hobbit) in 48fps 3d was the best cinema experience i have ever had! For a grumpy 45 year old to then not turn up to a 24 fps viewing but pay again to see it in 48fps is bonkers. And i may be bonkers, but i loved it the 2nd time as well!
