Well, it didn't work. In the 3D/24p press screening, people complained that it wasn't HFR, and in the 2D/24p guild screening, people complained that it wasn't 3D!
Tracy: Well-- That call -- That call means you just murdered me. Mal: No, son. You murdered yourself. I just carried the bullet a while.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Totally SMAUG.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
We are seeing it tomorrow. At least that's the plan.

I can report that the kids loved the Hobbit and Casper especially appreciated the badass lady elf.

Just got back from Hobbit, and I'd like to chime in with SMAUG. We see quite a lot of him, and in fact I think they must have included some footage from the 3rd movie in the trailer for this one. I saw the HFR version, and either my eyes just adjusted faster or they really did do it better this time.
Oh, and Connie, that phrase you were hoping would be in there? Was.
