High Frame Rate 3D Version of "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" in Select Philippine Cinemas
Want to be fully immersed in Middle-earth?
Then watch "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" in its glorious High Frame Rate (HFR) 3D version in the following theaters: Glorietta 4, Greenbelt 3, Greenhills, Robinsons Ermita, Robinsons Galleria, SM Cebu, SM Mall of Asia, SM Megamall, SM North Edsa and SM Southmall.
For the first time, director Peter Jackson utilized state-of-the-art digital cameras to record the action in "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" in 3D at an unprecedented 48 frames per second (fps) for release in High Frame Rate 3D (HFR 3D), as well as all the standard formats.
"We want 'The Hobbit' films to be a visual experience that goes several steps beyond 'The Lord of the Rings,'" Jackson says. "3D didn't really exist in mainstream cinema ten years ago at the level it does now, and we've shot the movie at 48 fps, which makes it the first feature film to be shot using today's High Frame Rate technology."
Jackson once again drew together members of the cast of "The Lord of the Rings," including Ian McKellen as the Wizard Gandalf the Grey, Cate Blanchett as Elf Queen Galadriel, Hugo Weaving as Elf Lord Elrond, and Andy Serkis once again playing Gollum. Framing the story are Elijah Wood reprising the role of Frodo Baggins, and Ian Holm as Old Bilbo Baggins, who recalls his great adventure prior to leaving Bag End. Leading the international ensemble cast are Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins, the Hobbit at the center of the tale, and Richard Armitage as the Dwarf warrior Thorin Oakenshield.
Together, this team of filmmakers and artists embarked on a new adventure - once again shooting three movies back-to-back to create a new motion picture trilogy, one that begins with a Hobbit living in a hole in the ground, on the brink of an incredible, and quite unexpected, journey.
A production of New Line Cinema and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures (MGM), "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" will be released in the Philippines by Warner Bros. Pictures on December 13, 2012.
The second film, "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug," will be released on December 13, 2013, to be followed by "The Hobbit: There and Back Again" on July 18, 2014.
