3d Cinemas now in Nigeria

With the announcement of 3d technology at the Silverbird Cinemas Nigeria, on Friday May 13, 2011 at the Silverbird Cinemas on Victoria Island, they become the second Cinema to bring this technology into the country following Genesis Deluxe Cinemas footsteps. As some of you may know, that a 3d cinema cost more than a conventional cinema (2d Cinema). I don't know how Silverbird and Genesis are going to do it without increasing the ticket prices because even in the US, 3d tickets are more expensive than 2d tickets.

 And I know Silverbird to be a great company, will definitely have plans to sell 3d tickets and 2d tickets separately, leaving you movie lovers to either choose to watch the movie in 2d or 3d according to what you can afford and choosing the right 3d movie, because some movie are not just worth watching in 3d (Clash of the Titans was the worst in 2010 according to TotalFilm.com worst-3d-movies). 

CotT was a decent movie, but in 3d, its just a reminder of Yakubu at the World cup.

But for now no announcement has been made by Silverbird of increasing their ticket price which is a plus for them.

Ticket prices are N1,500 for adults on week days and N2,000 on weekends. Late shows on Fridays and Saturdays cost N2,500.
There are special discounts for students with valid I.D cards at N1,000 on week days and N1,500 on weekends. 

"we want to amplify the cinema experience and our focus is the youth
and the young at heart who embrace new technologies" said Taiwo Oke. With Thor and Priest tearing through your stereoscopic glasses at Silverbird Cinemas, I just hope people will not start running out of the cinema with the breathtaking experience of 3d awesomeness.
