Hmmmm

I'd really like to see it again before passing a final judgement

I went to see it after a works christmas party and we were rushed for time. So after a few glasses of rather poor wine, we kinda rushed to get there and three hours is a long time to wear those 3d glasses after several glasses of poor wine

ok so with that out of the way, I ended up with a really bad headache after it and I wasn't nearly as wowed as I expected to be. I felt it was a pretty basic storyline and I'm kinda surprised it lasted three hours :/ when I think back to what actually happened, there doesnt feel like there was THAT much.

The 3d effect, I'm starting to wonder if it's working as well on me as it should. People talk about it being like watching through a window into a real 3d world and I'm not at all sure I got that.

So I need to go on my own one quiet january afternoon and see if it was stress + poor wine that impacted my first viewing

certainly EVERYONE else I've spoken to without exception says it's completely amazingly wonderful.

oh dear

well i wouldn't be in seeing it in 3d anyway - i don't think lincolnshire has 3d

mmm Jon's not keen but has said he'll go with me next week, don't know whether to go or not lol

I think I'd probably enjoy it more in 2d without the glasses. I hope none of the geeks from work reads this

sigh yeah

all sorts of wrong really. I booked a cheapy place (mistake 1), then everyone else wanted red so I went along even though I felt like white (mistake 2), ordered lots of the stuff even though the most expensive bottle on the menu was £12 (mistake 3)
