Here Are the Theaters Showing The Hobbit at 48fps By Bryant Frazer (STUDIO DAILY)




In case you missed it, the Los Angeles Times reported last week that The Hobbit will screen at its native 48fps projection rate in only about 450 North American movie theaters — probably a little more than 10 percent of the screens the film will eventually be booked on in the U.S. and Canada.

For those who like to plan in advance, the film's official website has posted a list of theaters that are booked to screen the film in what is now known as "HFR 3D." The "HFR" stands for high-frame-rate, of course, and the HFR version of The Hobbit will only be screened in 3D. It's not quite clear if this list is exhaustive. We count 385 U.S. theaters and another 49 in Canada for a total of 434. It's possible that more could convert before the film's December 14 (or midnight December 13, depending on how you look at it) opening.
