    Now I am wondering what theater will play this in 48 frames per second. I wonder if I would even notice the difference.

    Not sure if mine is but am going to see it in 3D. I'll let you know if I notice a diff. I wasn't impressed with the 3-D Promethius.

    "Now I am wondering what theater will play this in 48 frames per second. I wonder if I would even notice the difference."

    Feature films are usually shot (and projected) at 24 frames per second. So, yes, you will definitely notice a difference if you attend a screening of the 48fps version. The 24fps is what gives all feature films (since the 1920's) their dream-like quality. Are you familiar with what soap operas on TV look like, and how this look contrasts with feature films at the theater?

    You can check the list below find out if your local theater will have the 48 fps version.

    Entertainment Weekly has a great cover with a young Gollum on it. It scared the crap of me last night, but I love it. Great article in there too. Looking forward to a Hobbit trilogy. Just barely started reading 'The Return of the King' last night. I've read 'Hobbit', maybe earlier this year. One of the best fantasy tales I've ever read. Very thrilled to see a movie being made.

    I'll have to wait till the Mrs. is at a circuit assembly to go see it, though; hopefully she'll have one at the usual time, and I'm sure 'Hobbit' will still be screening somewhere in early February. At least I already know the plot, so...if I get really desperate I can just read the book again.

    Thanks, leavingwt!

    Looks like there is a theater in my area. I will definitely watch it both formats and compare.

    I would probably enjoy it on an old 13 inch black and white tv.
