AVATAR001

I was very honoured to attend the world premiere of Avatar last night. And WOW! It’s incredible – one of the most beautiful films I’ve ever seen! The plot is not perfect and there are plenty of cheesy Hollywood moments, but for once none of this matters – It’s like a Roger Dean record sleeve brought to life, but in stunning high def 3D?

After seeing the trailers and reading all the hype I wasn’t really expecting much, but after about 30minutes I was totally immersed. Vivid colours, perfect details and breathtaking landscapes – this film changes everything.

I attended a 3D screening of the new Disney/Pixar movie Up tonight. I guess as we’d expect by now, the animation and visuals are truly incredible. The story itself goes through all the usual, heart-warming Disney emotions, but it’s really the art of it all that stuck me most. And this isn’t necessarily down to the 3D stuff (which can feel a bit gimmicky in places), I think it will be just as beautiful in 2D, and certainly more comfortable than wearing cheap plastic glasses all the way through. Due out in the UK on the 16th October. Official site here.
