SimplyPotatoes Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Did anyone else see this movie and hated it because of bright red dots/brown dots/yellow dots. Ok I wouldn't have minded if there were a few but at least 30 times during good fight scenes etc there were bright dots, people actually left and complained and get there money back because of this, just wondering if they did it in any other part of the country, havnt found anything on the internet about it yet.

SimplyPotatoes Posted October 14, 2003 Author Share Posted October 14, 2003 it was at a brand new movie theatre, which has 3 screens 2x normal sizes ones, all digital projectors ; everything 8.1 surround crazy bass (hurts my head) i dont know but it was terrible, and the guy taking the complaints said it was suposed to be like that.... it was on all the screens, but he didnt say why it was suposed to be like that...sigh...waste of 20$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eli Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 I heard something from my friend about some brail that appeared multiple times during the movie. He started talking about how it spelled out the directors name or something. On another note: This guy is addicted to video games, the Matrix and makes up stories and says they are true because no one else told him differently. This guy is a total wacko.

BroChaos Veteran Posted October 14, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 14, 2003 yeah this does suck. lets ruin everyone's "high quality movie theatre" experience cuz of the pirates. that's why we go to the theatre in the first place. if i'm gonna get crap like this at the theatre, then i might as well just download it.

Ash Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Umm if people are going to buy/doqnload crappy versions done with a video camer with people coughing and walking in front of the camer, just to watch the movie, I really dont think people will care about the dots lol. Plus if the people tho taped them, couldnt they just export the frames, edit it in photoshop and then reencode the video? P.S. I go see one movie with those things ruining the movie and I'll stop going to the theaters and just downlaod em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackcoffee Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 I noticed the DOTS about 5 times in Chapter 5 "Showdown at the House of Blue Leaves." But believe me, you guy's are pathetic if you think that causes any negative effects to the film. Give me a break fellas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assumed they were beeping out the womans name to add some mystery to her identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
