[kj] (OT) U2-3D

[Darren A. Peace]

Just so long as Adam Clayton keeps his pants on. That's something I could
live without in 3D.

I had today off so I caught a matinee at the IMAX theater in Irvine of the 
live U2 concert filmed in IMAX 3D.

Overall, it's really impressive as far as replicating and at times exceeding

a typical concert experience. The first couple of songs (Vertigo and 
Beautiful Day) simply overwhelm the senses with sight and sound really 
unlike any other 3d film I've ever seen. Yes, it's still the same kind of 3d

experience where you wear the silly plastic dark tinted polarized glasses 
but *the way* the live footage was filmed coupled with the use of overlays, 
minor animation and dissolves definitely takes the whole 3d viewing shtick 
to a much higher level. It's really more of an artistic achievement than a 
technological one.
