Despite this, I can honestly say that I enjoyed the 48fps presentation of Avatar 2. I remember when I saw The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey in theaters, they offered a high frame rate presentation of that film, and it really just looked like video game cutscenes and was mildly nauseating. Personally, I have never been a fan of moving the framerate any higher than 24. And so, we just we’re essentially using a simple hack to use the high frame rate platform that already exists.” And so, they actually show the same frame twice, but, but the viewer doesn’t see it that way. In any part of the scene that we want at 24fps, we just double the frames. “Can theatres support variable frame rate, switching back and forth within the movie between 24fps and 48fps? The answer is no, they just run it at 48fps. And sometimes we need that cinematic feeling of 24fps,” said Cameron. For shots of just people standing around talking, \ works against us because it creates a kind of a hyper realism in scenes that are more mundane, more normal. “We’re using \ to improve the 3D where we want a heightened sense of presence, such as underwater or in some of the flying scenes. His reasoning for doing so is outlined in the interview found here: However when I watched this film in IMAX, something else which is decidedly inseparable from the IMAX presentation of the film was thrust upon me: High Frame Rate (HFR).įor this film James Cameron has made the decision to present some scenes of the film in 48 frames per second (fps) and others in 24fps. I've always enjoyed seeing films in the IMAX ratio, especially ones which take full advantage of the larger-than-life frames and Avatar 2 is no exception. Earlier today I watched Avatar: The Way of Water in IMAX, and was amazed with how much the larger aspect ratio elevates the presentation of the film's grand scenery.
