Avatar 2 coming December 2021, could use 4K 3D, HDR, HFR
Just wanted to check how Avatar 2 is doing, it looks like it will finally arrive in December 2021, and with some big jump in terms of 3d tech:
https://www.ibc.org/trends/behind-the-s ... 07.article
Some interesting quotes:
“The technology has advanced leaps and bounds at every conceivable level since the first Avatar (...) we are shooting higher resolution than the first and at higher frame rates and still in 3D.”
"In 2009, Cameron was able to playback material in 3D HD at 24fps on set. Avatar 2 and 3 are being acquired at 3D 4K, and fed through an on set pipeline at various resolutions and frame rates. These include 3D 48fps in 2K and 4K, 3D 24fps in 2K and 4K, and 3D 24fps in HD. "
“Our set up is arguably groundbreaking in terms of being able to do what we are doing at this high spec and in stereo,” he says. “It is all to service the director’s vision.”
Apparently Avatar 3 is 95% done too: https://variety.com/2020/film/news/avat ... 234785321/
I can hear the cyclops shouting in anger already XP .

I'm glad there are still visionaries that go beyond "mass market". I said the same thing to someone on Facebook complaining Alyx was VR-only. Mind you, Cameron has the means to do this but he didn't have to.
I doubt this will push 3D like 11 years ago (still cant believe it was so long ago) but it will be interesting to watch. Also, while it is a year away, I fear COVID will still have a negative effect here with most ppl missing out on the 3d viewing and just watching it on their 2d TVs. I hope I'm wrong.

It's standard, cinema standard and they predate home video standard, and they're universal all around the world, contrary to home video which come from on local electricity frequency (ie 50 Hz, not 60 in Europe).

I definitely want to watch avatar 2 in 3d. I remember watching avatar 1 on my 3d vision monitor from way back when, the TN panel really made the colors look bad and low quality.
I feel like the tech industry to trying to make another 3d push right now, albeit slowly. I think the way things are moving, the technology is moving towards VR/AR headsets which is all about 3d space. I'm hoping we get there soon, so we can get better 3d movies and higher resolution 3d displays.
I think a full wrap around widescreen 3d monitor would be an awesome experience over VR headsets.

I saw "Avatar - The Way of Water" 2 times in the cinema. 1 time with 3D HFR and once in 3D without HFR and I made the decision never again to watch a 3D movie with HFR. It is just terrible. Lots of double images and the picture looks extremely unnatural. Without HFR there are no double images and the picture looks just perfect. I regretted it the first time I watched the movie with HFR.
This is my opinion about it.
