Epic Review

Epic-Poster

Rivalling DreamWorks and Pixar animation studios is certainly no easy task, but Blue Sky Studios are triumphantly getting along with things, consistently making a profit on their reasonable back catalogue. Boasting the likes of Rio and the popular Ice Age franchise, they now return with Chris Wedge’s Epic, an adventure in the Honey, I Shrunk [...]




Skyfall Officially Takes the #1 Spot in the UK All-Time Box Office

Daniel Craig in Skyfall

It’s been storming the UK box-office ever since it was released on October 26th and now, just 6 weeks later, it’s officially taken the #1 spot from James Cameron’s 2009 movie Avatar. This feat is rather impressive especially since the takings for Skyfall are minus any 3D sales since the movie was shot in the [...]

Sony Bravia 55-inch KDL-55HX853 3D LCD TV Review

KDL-55HX853 (2)

When Sony contacted us to ask if we wanted to review a 55 inch television, it didn’t take me long before I said a big “YES!”. Whether my wife will agree when she see just how big a 55″ inch television really is and how much room it takes up is another matter but “we’ll [...]




The HeyUGuys Cinema Release Round-up: 14th September

cinema-screen-220x1503

It was a relatively poor few days in terms of cinema attendances this past weekend as the general public made the collective decision to make the most of  one last dose of sunshine before five months of jumpers, freezing mornings and flood warnings. In fact, the market was so bad this past weekend, takings were [...]




Pacific Rim Scheduled For 3D Post-Conversion

Pacific Rim

Despite lobbying hard for a 2D release, with the director fearing the 3D format’s much-maligned miniaturization effect, it seems Guilermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim is indeed getting the stereoscopic treatment after all. But, while we could sound the Kermode and launch into a pre-empted tirade about how 3D is ruining cinema, that the vision of [...]

Star Wars Episode II Attack of the Clones

Lucasfilm have been planning to do the same for all six of the [...]

Watching Wimbledon in 3D – Does Sport in 3D Really add a New Dimension?

roger-federer-3d

The 2012 Wimbledon Men’s Final attracted a whopping 17 million viewers last Sunday but many of them weren’t getting the full experience. Whilst they were at home in from of their TVs I was watching the final in ‘glorious’ 3D. The question though…. did what has up until now (in my opinion) only work as [...]

Katy Perry: Part of Me Review

Katy Perry - Part of Me

Not to be outdone by tween sensation Justin Bieber, bubblegum pop star Katy Perry brings to the big screen her life (on- and off-stage) in this slickly entertaining biopic, which manages to inject a little spice amongst the gratuitous amount of sugar on display. Following the California Gurls songstress as she embarks on a huge [...]




Top Cat – The Movie (3D) Review

Top Cat Movie Poster

The Top Cat theme tune is undoubtedly the most memorable aspect of Hanna-Barbera’s classic TV cartoon series, more so than the actual alley antics of con artist moggy Top Cat (TC) and his oddball pals. While it’s obviously nostalgic to see the cool character brought to life on the big screen ­in somewhat dubious ‘3D’, [...]

We Interview Sir David Attenborough about 3D, Carnivorous Plants & Appealing to Audiences

Kingdom of Plants 3D

Given that my job is to have an opinion on everything, I’m often prone to hyperbolae. That said, I don’t think it particularly hyperbolic to say that David Attenborough is one of the more interesting people currently drawing breath. Still working after over sixty years, he first started his career in broadcasting when the medium [...]




Beauty and the Beast 3D Review

Beauty and the Beast 3D

After last year’s re-release of The Lion King, the 1991 animation milestone is the next film from the Disney vault to get the 3D treatment. Based on the classic fairytale, it’s rightly regarded as a classic and always welcome back to cinema screens. I’m still slightly unconvinced about converting 2D cel animation into 3D though. [...]




3D Web Shooter Design Specs from The Amazing Spider-Man

The Amazing Spider-Man Peter Parker Web Shooter Design (3)

The official Facebook account for The Amazing Spider-Man has released concept drawings and 3D rendered imagery and scetches of the Peter Parker (played by Andrew Garfield) Web Shooter from the latest movie. They specifically say ‘Property of Peter Parker Web Shooter Designs’ so i wonder if [...]

Film stock has improved, the resolution of cameras has increased and the scanning of film for theatrical distribution is [...]
