Jaws 3D (no, not the awful sea park one)

Not seen a thread about this, but for fans of the movie, it has been re-released in 3D and IMAX; I am off to see it this afternoon

The original Jaws is one of my favourite films of all time, but as I was born in 1975 I have never seen it on the big screen, always on TV or at home.

Well I thought some parts were really well done in 3D (the beach scene with the Hitchcock-esque wipes) and that zoom in to Brody. Some parts didn't pop out as 3D at all; thinking the odd scene on the Orca when the woodwork of the boat, barely in picture, is taken to the foreground whilst the remainder is left normal.

On the whole though, it was a really good treatment and seeing it on the big screen for the first time was amazing. Went on my own on the daytime showing and there was myself plus two other people! The sound and picture in IMAX was certainly impressive.

Wasn't this released in 3D a couple of years after the original 1975 release? That's what the joke is about with the holographic shark in Back To The Futture.

I thought it was just a general 'dig' at the awful sequels; wasn't aware it had ever made it to cinema at a later date.
