The future of movies?

Aug 05, 2008 19:44

On the train ride home today, Rick and I were talking about movies. It turns out that the guy who was beside us works for the TIFF in a technical capacity. Apparently the future plans for theatres is 22-channel sound (think being surrounded by speakers, also at various heights) and 3D video (a la Beowulf) is apparently going to be a big thing ( Read more... )

Lemme know if you want a copy of the Dr. Horrible soundtrack - I found a version that is decent quality and apparently virus free. It's the least I can do for you. ;)

I have the fan-edited soundtrack... and have been listening to it ALL day.
Brain kaput.

ya, i expect 3d will be popular. The speakers i don't think will make a huge difference, but 3d will take a while to duplicate at home, which will make you want to go to the theatre for fear of "missing something".

Any story that can be told in color can also be told in black and white, but people prefer color.

StarWars 7 in 3d. You heard it hear first.
