Well it exists in 3D, and usually with preview screenings if a 3D version is available that's what you get shown. Don't think there's songs though, it's just a live action family film, not animation.

I watched the 2D trailer on the website. It looked fine for a Sunday morning film with nice sun, beaches and Harry Conick Jnr! I think that's swung it! No sign of songs. Suspect that, tragically, it will be in 3D.
My OH hates 3D more than me as it doesn't work for him as he's short sighted in one eye and long sited in the other!

I haven't seen it in a long time but this may be my only chance to see it on the big screen n 3D.
Me too ft. And it was always a family favourite. I even watch it with a nephew and niece too. If I had to choose, I'd go for TLK3D over DT3D. You know TLK3D is a good movie regardless of the 3D (and the 3D will hopefully be good) but you can't guarantee that for DT3D. If the storyline is crap plus the 3D, you'll definitely regret not going TLK3D.

I watched the trailer for Dolphin Tale and it didn't do anything for me, so I think I shall go watch Simba instead. :D

At least you are getting a goody bag (the non-existing, not pilfered one of course).

Yes, indeed I am - many thanks for them! At least I get to keep memorabilia of my non-attendance at today's premiere. :rolleyes:
