*Our 1st 3-D Experience


We picked up Al from the pier and drove right away to SM to watch the Clash of the Titans in 3D! Jee and I were so excited since it was going to be our first 3D experience, and we heard it's gonna be awesome. I'm not going to talk about the film itself. I'll spare myself from doing a movie review with this one, but here's a good review about "Clash of the Titans."

After eating our individual share of sausage meals ( Jee had Jumbo hotdog sandwich, Al had something i don't remember but still resembles a sausage, and I had Hungarian sausage sandwich from Flame It!), we fell on the very looong line of ticket holders for the 3D experience. It's free seating, so that explains the long line. Everyone wants to occupy the nicest seat to maximize the P250 per seat. Why there was buzzing and humming sounds around, I'm not quite sure what to tag them. What I knew then was that Jee was willing to line up with Al, which he doesn't usually have patience for. Also, I noticed I was smiling and very patient waiting for them to call me to the line when it's already near the gate since I was just seated and waiting all because I have a big baby bump.

Then, at the gates, some cinema aides gave each one of us a pair of 3D glasses we all wore even before the 3D movie started. That's how excited we were! We were treated to several 3D movie trailers before the the main 3D experience opening billboard. There were words swinging and moving in an amazing manner, and some balls almost hit us, especially Jee, who almost docked in his seat thinking he's being targeted! Whew! That was fun! Everybody in the room laughed about the experience, giggling and tossing and turning in our seats awaiting for the main showing. During the film showing, Jee and I kept on taking off and putting back on our 3D glasses trying to compare the results with or without it. I felt silly doing it but can't help it, after all, nobody's gonna look at me strangely or mockingly since it was dark inside the theater. Maybe everyone was doing it, especially, those like me and Jee experiencing this 3D thing for the first time. So, I just kept on doing so until the very end of the movie.

I said I won't talk like a movie critic, remember? No, not this time. Maybe when I watch another Leonardo di Caprio acting-intense movie or another Steven Spielberg film, I might consider it. So, this is it. I just wanted to share our first 3D experience. I hope it's enough for now.:-)Lingaw!
