Det är ännu inte klart hur Metallica’s kommande 3D film kommer att bli. Lars Ulrich kommenterar planerna för filmen, “This has been circling for two years. It’s time to life-size it, get it out of our minds and on the screen. And if it’s done right, it can be sensational. You’re not watching Metallica onstage. You’re onstage with Metallica. In IMAX, James Hetfield is 38 feet tall, snotting on you, spitting on you. It’s 2,000 decibels. If there is an earthquake outside, you wouldn’t notice.”
Han fortsätter, “But you can’t do that for 100 minutes. It loses its appeal. There is another element in there – intimate, small, a story that takes place over the same trajectory as the concert. The question is, ‘Where do they weave in and out of each other?’ But you have to cut away from the concert to enjoy the concert.”
Metallica jobbar med regissören Nimrod Antal för filmen. Bandet kommer spela in sin konsert i Vancouver den 24 augusti för projektet.
