Savoy Wellawatte-3D ?

There is no confirmation yet, but we might see Sri Lanka's second 3D cinema very soon, not too long after the first 3D cinema, MC Superior 3D opened to the public. Savoy Wellawatte is a very old theater in Sri Lanka and has been one of the few theaters that screened good Hollywood movies in Sri Lanka. It looks like Savoy Cinema is under some sort of renovation, and there is some speculation that it is being upgraded to 3D. This could be just a rumor, however the official site eapmovies.com for the first time has posted a 3D movie, "Sammy2-3D" under their upcoming movies section. It certainly looks like eap movies is venturing out into screening 3D movies, and it's a good move considering the success MC superior has had, but as said before we don't know for sure, until it's officially confirmed..


UPDATE : It's official. Savoy Wellawatte is currently undergoing the 3D conversion process and will reopen with the screening of the 3D animation Ice Age 4 on the 26th of July. Savoy 3D will be the 3rd 3D cinema in Sri Lanka after MC Superior 3D and MC Platinum 3D. Savoy 3D will be the first cinema in Sri Lanka to use the Sony 4K projector. According to eapmovies the conversion process included the installation of a Silver Screen to the cinema. This means that the cinema will be using the new RealD XLS 3D projection system which couples RealD 3D technology with the new Sony 4K projector. This new system simultaneously projects both, the left and right eye images onto the screen and thus reduces motion blur and provides a smoother and better 3D experience.
