Yep, I went to what I think was an unauthorized screening of Attack of the Clones. I don't want to give anything away as in what I thought of the movie itself but I want to vent my frustrations about the Digital Video they shot it with. I don't like it. Maybe it was a bad print but I found that there was a blur to the whole image that really gave me a headache after about twenty minutes(the movie is about 2hrs20mins).
You can also really tell it's video because in the shots that are supposed to be somewhat underexposed you get that annoying "noise" that video is very reliable on providing.
I'm not sure if this got to me because I'm a photographer/videographer and notice these things. The audience didn't seem to react to it but I was stirring in my seat the whole way through.
Anyway, I'll talk about the movie when more people have seen it.
'Later peoples, gotta go to work.
