Top Gun 3D

[indisposed]

I watched my import the other day... I thought it was a mixed bag. The grain feels really pronounced in the 3.D version (I don't usually mind grain, but it sticks out right from the very first shot and is there for the duration) and I noticed some bad crosstalk on some of those moving jets, but there is a pretty good sense of depth throughout. I think it would have looked really cool in IMAX 3D, but it seems we are out of luck at this point ; it must have done poorly in the States.

As for the 2.D version... I had a quick look at a few scenes and yeah, the D.N.R is quite obvious, especially in the darker interior scenes (James Tolkin briefing Cruise and Edwards about Top Gun, the famous club scene). As for the colours... You know, I didn't notice while I was watching the 3.D version, but in retrospect, they probably were different from the 2.D version. I'll have to check again.
