i saw _the nightmare before christmas_ a couple of nights ago ... in 3D!!! it was at the el capitan theater, which is only a couple of blocks from our apt. we walked down to get there for the movie at 915 (normally if i'm going to see a movie at night i prefer to see the latest possible showing of the day, but the 11pm showing was a singalong, and i didn't want superfans to ruin the 3D effects w/ their flailing and voices). but when we got there, at the beginning there was a guy on stage playing the organ, and it sounded pretty amazing. and the theater has thick red velvety curtains, and the organist was wearing a black cape w/ some strange design on the back in shiny black, not sequins, something else. anyway, it seemed like entertainment from a distant future, or another planet. it was pretty amazing. the movie looked good although some of it wasn't as great as other 3D films bc it wasn't originally intended to be gratuitously 3D so it didn't have lots of things flying at the camera, but it did look like it was some strange claymation happening in front of us. i hope they have the 3D film fest again soon. a good time was had by all.
