One article says there are 12 3-D screens and one 2-D screen. They said the @-D is tought to find. Is it the truck driver near the start of the ride???? And when I count in my head, there seems to be more than 12 screens, but maybe I am wrong. Anyone know for sure?

12 3-D screens and 1 2-D screen is accurate.

These are the full-size screens - the driver's window of the truck in scene #1 and the falling windows in scene #8 are not counted in the above. Try again to guess which projection is NOT in 3 dimensions ;)

The first screen where Electro notices that you have overheard their plans...right before he heads off to the next screen where he zaps you with the big electric cable? It's one of the few screens where nothing seemed to jump out at me.

My guess is the one where the Scoop is flying out of control over the city. The screen is curved and I don't really notice 3-D effects on it.

Am I right? :jester:

Whoops, sorry, no one has guessed the correct answer yet. :confused:

By the way, yes there are two "domed" screens in the building. Scenes 9-1 (Scoop flying over the city) and 9-3 (the "drop"). However, both these scenes have two projectors each and are in 3-D.

The only other possible 2D screen I can think of is the one with the scoop's ascent. Is that it?

On a somewhat related note, scoop #120 wouldn't happen to have the new motion profile, would it?

How about the screen over the Scoop unload dock where JJJ is floating in his office? Other than that, all I can think of is the garbage truck screen.

Uhh, hate to interrupt but why are we one of his "links"????

How do we do this, BH?

Is it where Spidy says "Wait for me your not insured for this"? That didn't seem to be in 3-D.

He said the truck screen doesn't count. I'm pretty sure it has to be JJJ floating in his office.

come on that $200 ?? effect was just put there so they could add that to the $249,999,800 count.:jester:

CONGRATULATIONS TO:

:p MrMittman and MrNonacho :p

(sorry folks...Jamison's levitation above the unload platform also doesn't count)

But, yes, Scene #8 (Falling Building/Levitation) - as your Scoop vehicle is levitated and the windows of the buildings fall past your vehicle is, in fact, only in 2 dimensions.

The background film of Spidey trying to climb the buildings chasing you ("...wait for me...you're not insured for this") is, in fact, only a 2-dimensional film.

...but you said earlier that the garbage truck AND scene #8 didn't count...

I don't know. Maybe all the traffic from this site has caused him to add the link. :)

...sorry...I only meant the yellow windows you see to your left and right while you're levitating. It's the projection with Spidey directly in front of you that's in 2D.
