Pirates: Sea World of Ohio goes 3-D!!!

[P3D Dr. George A. Themelis <DrT-3d@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sea World of Ohio now features a new 3-D PLUS Movie Adventure 
attraction, Pirates in its new 900-seat theater.  This information 
is from Plain Dealers review that appeared on Friday May 9th. 
 
Reporter Sheila Simmons writes: The technological advances in 3-D 
films first catch your attention.  I expected Sea World to hand me 
those ill-fitting, cardboard-framed glasses with one cellophane red 
eye and one blue.  Instead, I am given slick plastic ones... with 
clear brown plastic lenses.  I knew the film would inspire in me the 
desire to reach out and grab objects seemingly jutting from the 
screen.  But I also expected the film to be plagued with 3-Ds usual 
blurry, disconnected visuals, giving me a headache.  But Pirates 
boasts crisp visuals, surprisingly full-dimensioned human figures and 
colors so vivid the experience reminds you just how deficient other 
film is in capturing the multihued colors of such objects as leaves.


Ms. Simmons description nicely reflects the wrong public impression of 
3-D as an anaglyph and headache-producing afair.  From the description 
of the glasses in appears that the movie is in polarized form.  The 
film runs on a pair of 70 mm films and it is projected on a 60x28 feet 
screen.  Some parts are computer generated.  

It should be a great experience.  Dont miss it! (I know I wont!)

Sea World of Ohio (1-800-63-SHAMU) is in Aurora OH.  Price of the show 
is included in the regular tickets.  "Pirates" is 15 minutes and 32 
seconds and runs three times per hour.
