I'm definitely going to see the concert movie again. U23D opens in wide release February 15th! This will include Real D 3D theaters. It honestly felt like an experience and not a movie. I look back on the film and it felt like I was really there and not just thinking about what happened in a movie. For my initial impressions of U23D check out my review.
Awesome interviews!
Digg This!
The only negative thing I have heard about u23D to date is, well - not really negative about the movie but more about the individual: Jay Z left a recent screening of U23D early - too early to see the outstanding effects later on in the concert. So doesn't really count in my book. Besides, Beyoncé may have texted him to get his ass to Saks to help her shop. Who knows.
Reports are coming in from the Sundance premiere that the movie is simply a spectacle, a must see even if you are not a U2 fan, and the 3D rocks. Apparently as the movie advances, the 3D effects keep getting better with more and more innovation.
I will be finally checking U23D out shortly courtesy of my local Empire IMAX theater chain. Can't wait!
Well I guess the auction was right on the money - Bono and U2 did show up at the premiere screening of U23D at Sundance. Bill over at Summit Pacific said the Al Gore showed up too but the response to him paled in comparison to the Irish rockers. Kinda funny - but it is their show to be fair. Wish I could have been there!
Apparently Robert Redford was at the showing as well and was suitably awed by the technology.
Maybe it was worth $600+ for a pair of scalped tickets? Hmmm. Maybe.
Waiting patiently for the 23rd!!
At the time of this post, an eBay seller has recieved a bid of $610 for his
pair of U23D tickets to the premiere at Sundance!
His big marketing ploy? U2 MIGHT be there. Might. He says: "I can make no guarantee that Bono / U2 will attend the Sundance screening, but Bono & the band have been to Sundance before, and The Edge owns a house nearby)"
On the
other end of the scale there is
this nugget:
They wouldn't be lookin' to flip these would they? Nahhhhh...
Well to each their own but there seems to be a very ample market for these 3D movie theater tickets. One thing is for sure, the place will be rockin'.
Update (Jan 10th): Attendees and panelists will be viewing an exclusive first glimpse of Thomas Jane's "The Dark Country" - 3 minutes of glorious 3D. Of course the premiere of U23D is taking place at Sundance as well. More info when I get it!
The big cheese are all getting together in one very large 3D enchilada. Sundance. I first posted on this meeting back on November 22nd, 2007 and promised I would update you with particulars. Well it has expanded and now there is going to be a huge gathering of the three dimensional types at the Festival, Sunday January 20th at 11:30PM at the Prospector Theater.
The panelists include - get this - Jeffrey Katzenberg, Steven Spielberg and James Cameron. As I have said before, it doesn't get any better than that. Well, if Peter Jackson were there... Ok, it could be better. But not much!
Some of the other names that are going to be there include: Vince Pace, Jed Weintraub, Steve Schklair, Phil McNally, Catherine Owens and Ray Zone.
There is going to be an AWESOME lineup of 3D movie clips from the various movies in 3D production right now. I am awaiting confirmation before I post these, but wow!
As always, I will update ASAP. The event is ticketed however - may be a completely closed house.
