It's just people walking down a red carpet.

Have a feeling PETA will pull a protest stunt on the red carpet.
Yeah, it was all over the place for a while there. Sounding a lot better at the moment.

I don't think they even exist here. We have the SPCA and they are much nicer (and more moderate).

Doubt it. With thousands of fans there, security would be tighter than Bilbo's asshole.

Crowded House had some great songs, I like Neil Finn.

Neil Finn is a good fit for this. It could have been something awful like The Feelers.

Yeah but I was kinda over Crowded House by the 90s. Don't we have any recent artists?
I'm surprised Dave Dobbyn hasn't turned up yet.

So I called my local theater in the (very small) hope they might be showing it at 48 FPS. Its not a large area and I doubt they would be but they were one of the first theaters to get digital projectors (even though we are kinda rural, compared at least to big cities) and it might happen.
The manager apparently had no clue a 48 FPS version existed. Things arn't looking good and it's a 2 and half our drive to the nearest theater I know for sure is showing 48 FPS.

It would be worth it but I can't afford to take a day off work to drive to Pittsburgh to see a movie and then drive back, as much as I want to.

Fuck that. Guy's a songwriting genius.
Someone is seriously trying to drag Neil fucking Finn?

So the movie has a more "fantasy" look to illustrate that LoTR 1/2/3 are set in the end of the fourth age, where magical things "leave" the world?
Looking at the stills, and how fantasy-ish and CG the backdrops look, I hope we won't fall in SW Prequels territory in terms of shooting.

SHIT!
I just started the stream as Neil Finn was bowing after playing. Someone post a link to that performance later if it pops up. Damn that makes me mad.

This "magic" that controls color saturation must also explain why modern video games have lost their magic.

Great beard Weaving
And the TV spot they just showed in the stream, did it look 48fps to you?

I was wondering if this was the case or if I was just imagining things.

I wonder if the flash player for the stream is even capable of 48 FPS.
I also recall reading somewhere that none of the promo stuff would be 48 FPS footage
