The only way I'll ever watch the theatrical release again is if it's re-released in HFR 3D. Watching them in that form was amazing, even though the movies themselves were not good.

I wasn't super keen. HFR is a real double edged sword. It makes everything look more realistic, but unfortunately what you're looking at is Martin Freeman in rubber feet.

Shame you can't watch at home though. 3D HFR may be dead on TVs, but VR headsets have been around a while now. If I can watch 60fps 3D 180° porn livestreamed from Eastern Europe, I'm pretty sure a multi-billion dollar corporation could figure it out as well to let me watch a movie.

And none of it helps me look past the fact that the movies were gash.

The tech is there for sure, just not in any format major studios are interested in. The market is too small. Hell, we don't even get Blu-ray releases for a lot of stuff anymore.

I mean, we're talking about an industry that hardcodes black bars in streaming movies. They don't give a shit about the tech.
