This February, we’ll get to find out just how many Titanic fanatics will truly never let go. James Cameron’s 1997 blockbuster is returning to theaters for its 25th anniversary — in 3D. It’s actually not the first time viewers have gotten the chance to re-experience Jack and Rose’s tragic love story in tri-dimensional glory; there was a theater re-release back in 2012, to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the ship’s first and final voyage. That version, as Cameron said at the time, had been “digitally re-mastered at 4K and painstakingly converted to 3D.”
… This latest re-release boasts an update that goes beyond 3D and 4K: high frame rate. Basically, most movies are projected at 24 frames per second, but with HFR, each second of film simply contains more frames.
