Hobbit News



The latest news about Hobbit is of the footage shown at CinemaCon.
As you may know The Hobbit is being shot in not only 3d but also at 48fps (a normal movie is done at 24fps).For comparison,48fps is usually used for hd sports channels.

The writers for entertainment websites,Collider,Slash & Firstshowing, discussed about it after seeing this footage.

Its being said that the Hobbit looks too damn realistic.Its like the audience is looking into an open window into the world of The Hobbit.Its that clear and realistic.The cinematography will be mind blowing at 48fps.But its this same reason that also is causing a bit of a problem.Its too realistic.At 24fps ,if you swing a sword ,you could see a sort of motion blur ,but at 48fps ,it feels very very smooth and realistic.

The negative reaction of the audience could be because they have seen something completely NEW.The 24fps to 48fps difference will not be something like the difference between 2D to 3D. Its more likely a change equivalent to black&white to color. 48fps will be the future of cinema in 4-5 years ,and The Hobbit is just the one thats taken the initiative to start the movement.People may find change from 24fps to 48fps a hard thing to digest.

The excitement for The Hobbit is said too have been dampened after the screening ,but just to remind you ,the footage shown wasnt completed and the movie still has to undergo post production.So maybe ,just as Bane's voice (from The Dark Knight Rises) was fixed in post production ,Hobbit may have yet to undergo lots of changes.
