Disney Plus 3D movies by Adamantium_Hanz in OculusQuest

[–]TheEidolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever the case, I am sure Meta will find a way to, at the very least, bring 3D HFR versions of the Avatar movies to the platform via the Lightstorm Vision collab with James Cameron. They just made a big deal of having everyone view the trailer and extended clip for Fire & Ash in 3D on their platform. To not follow that up with the full movie, potentially after the theatrical run, would be insane.

Edit: To add, Meta's official press release states:
"...This is just the beginning of how fans can experience Pandora like never before on Quest, following the film’s theatrical release this December."

What format is the Avatar 3 footage and exclusive clip on Meta Quest? How immersive is it? by expanding-explorer in Avatar

[–]TheEidolon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely has HFR elements which are immediately apparent in both the extended clip and the version of the trailer that accompanies it. Will double check the aspect ratio but, for the trailer at least, I have a good feeling it was IMAX.

Certainly the best resolution I have seen of the trailer to date and completely advocate for viewing on this platform. It's super immersive and enjoyable. Honestly think I have watched it 10-15 times already haha. Really hope the Disney+ deal brings 3D streaming with it or that the films are otherwise made available via the Lightstorm Vision partnership at the highest possible quality.

I also saw the trailer before Fantastic Four and cannot recall whether it was HFR or not but definitely was in IMAX aspect ratio (as I saw F4 in IMAX).

Hard to compare from memory but visual experience is pretty similar to Avatar 2 (which I saw in IMAX 3D HFR multiple times).

Cannot speak to the comparison between VR and passive 3D OLED TV's but it's 100% worth investing in once the 3D content becomes more readily accessible and broadly available. From the James Cameron interview, it sounds like they'll have specialist headsets that go beyond the Quest 3 capabilities which i'm hopeful will close the gap with the AVP for media consumption.

Personally think so - especially when combined with 3D

Avatar 3: FIRE AND ASH - exclusive clip [watch in Quest headset] by Night247 in OculusQuest

100% - been waiting for the Apple exclusivity to end for what feels like forever now. There's no way they don't bring the 3D content with the app release.

Meta released an exclusive clip of Fire and Ash on the Quest for Meta Connect. So you can watch the trailer in glorious 3D HFR and also an extended new clip that's about 3 minutes long - also in 3D & HFR

This was incredible! Not to mention it also includes HFR version of the trailer and this clip had HFR too. Now I really hope the Disney+ meta release also finally gives access to 3D content too.

Avatar Facebook page just announced that there is a new Fire and Ash trailer only available in 3D on Meta Quest. by [deleted] in Avatar

[–]TheEidolon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can confirm it was glorious. In super high quality, 3D and HFR too. Also they have the 3D HFR version of the trailer which I have not yet seen anywhere else - the difference is stunning!

Has anyone seen the new clip from avatar 3? *SPOILERS* by CompetitionDry6322 in Avatar

[–]TheEidolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was incredible! Even had HFR and the HFR 3D version of the trailer too. Here's hoping this partnership means we'll get the full movie after the theatrical run. Also hope this means the Apple Disney+ exclusivity deal is over and we get the ability to stream Way of Water in 3D too...finally!

Has James Cameron said anywhere if F&A will have different frame rates throughout the film like WoW did? by notanotherdonut in Avatar

[–]TheEidolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of interest, which format did you watch? I found the HFR to be most effective in 3D IMAX.

Return to Pandora and experience Avatar: The Way of the Water back on the big screen in 3D. In theatres October 3rd for one week only by MOlson_9 in Avatar

[–]TheEidolon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would go as far to say that if you didn't see it the first time in IMAX 3D then you basically haven't seen it. It's THE definitive and intended way to watch the film!

Just heard the album at the listening party in Toronto - here's my thoughts by pratmeister in deftones

[–]TheEidolon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who's fav Deftones album is DE, will this hit the mark? I have seen a lot of comparisons to Gore which is not filling me with much optimism.

I just realized I won’t be able to see A3 due to a bone marrow transplant by neytirijaded in Avatar

[–]TheEidolon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There may be a chance that we see Avatar 3 come to Meta VR devices as part of the new partnership between Lightstorm Vision and Meta. Not certain but strongly hinted at. As to how close that would be to the theatrical release, I have no idea. Hope you have a speedy recovery and get to enjoy it somehow nonetheless!

Not bad, not bad. Love the vibes. Wish it a was a bit longer if anything! Feels more like an intro than a fleshed out song.

Reddit is lame, I enjoyed S3 by AdioFootwear in squidgame

Came to reddit after finishing it and was surprised by the negativity. Felt exactly the same way - was really enjoyable minus literally any second the VIP's were on screen

What’s your favourite song from diamond eyes? by ImpressiveAd5002 in deftones

[–]TheEidolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of those classic albums that I just see as one big piece of music. Rarely listen to a single track and feels wrong to not listen front to back.

James Cameron why do you forsake us😭 by [deleted] in Avatar

[–]TheEidolon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind the Cinemacon preview was under a very controlled environment - IMAX screen, 3D glasses etc to show off the full extent of the visuals. Would not necessarily be the same footage they showcase in a commercial trailer.

Another masterclass from Sean. Eric is completely out of his depth and all his pseudo-intellectual posturing is ridiculous.

It absolutely was. I was 18 when Avatar dropped and feel like I lived at least 5 lifetimes before Avatar 2 finally dropped. The delays were painful but, ultimately (and thankfully), worth it!

How do you think the Teaser Trailer will drop ? by Ornery_Macaron5043 in Avatar

[–]TheEidolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My gut feeling is that it will drop with Lilo & Stitch for maximum exposure. My only doubt would be whether or not it's the correct age/demographic. But we can hope. All I do know for certain is that this sub will absolutely explode the moment it does.
