This isn't the first stupid thing a famous professional said in history and it won't be the last. Let's put that beside Neil Armstrong, who was utterly wrong in his prediction about Elon Musk. Was (is) a big humiliation for a legend.

Both Walter Murch, and Roger Ebert are wrong in every aspect of their arguments. First, that headache only happens to SOME people. The majority is perfectly fine with it. Roger is only showing off for that small but loud minority.

Walter is also wrong about the human eye. We can not only see all layers of what we see despite our focus, we can also see and comprehend wider than we know.

I see this situation as people above 60 not being able to use smartphones or computers while a 2 year old kid can use them without any problem. It is not a problem with the technology, it is a problem about our experience and narrow expectations that come with it.

Lol yeah! It's like a list of Who's Who on Gog for virtue signaling nincompoops. The truly god-awful dregs of humanity having its day I guess. XD

I wouldn't call this people leftists. At least not in the classical sense.

Edit:
Probably because science nowadays is guided by money. Pay enough money and/or have enough political power/social influence and the outcome of a scientific study is pretty predestined.

He who replies to one of Tauto's posts with "Lol yeah" has "left" the path of wisdom.

Narrow expectation on the one hand, but indeed a narrow vision and limited technology on the other.

Ebert just as well has been subjected to waves of 3D technology in his life. As I said, the attempt isn't new, there have been attempts to make 3D the new hot shit since at least 1915, an ebb and flow of niche technology that has only fairly recently arrived outside of geekdom spheres (mostly because everyone's a geek nowadays).

The shutter technology suffers from low chroma and light intensity, it reduces the perceived size of the screen and cuts the resolution in half. And all that is before the fact that 3D movies are very often just gimmicking the tech around, forsaking age old pictorial composition techniques for cheap SFX. I personally don't get anything out of it.

Now VR games are somewhat of a different breed, though of course they suffer from comparatively low resolution as well. The apparatus you have to wear is still cumbersome and of course there's acute awareness that you look extremely awkward using them. And then there's motion sickness, which is of course an absolute bitch when you can't even play First Person perspective games for longer periods of time - like myself.

Maybe there is a sensible 3D technology on the horizon somewhere, but I'd rather guess it's one of the next waves, and the present one will eventually die out.

I thought interest in 3D movies actually went down this year. I know I read in Entertainment or something that the numbers were in decline, but there could be other reasons for that.

The people I know who go to 3D movies do so because they can, it's not something they really care about and it's not something they would ever demand. 'If it's not available, no problem.'

Seriously, reading some of the comnments on this thread, including the OP, would make one despair for humanity until you realize that most (with the possible exception of hired antifa thugs) of those with the mindset who express their so called "left" views rarely leave their keyboards, let alone their homes. So do not despair all you real people out there who, like myself, occasionally visit online slums such as this forum to marvel at the level to which some have sunk. Keep living your real lives and rest assured that for all their perversity, their impact on the real world diminishes daily. Stay positive humans. ;)

You appear to be correct as usual. :D

Please spare me your passive-aggressive nonsense. Just because I didn't ridicule Tauto doesn't mean that I'm his friend nor support his views. And "political left" did stand in the past for something different than just gender, rights for LGBT, etc. whether you like it or not.

And here is something just for you to think about:

Kinder und Linke by Erich Fried

Wer Kindern sagt
Ihr habt rechts zu denken der ist ein Rechter
Wer Kindern sagt
Ihr habt links zu denken
der ist ein Rechter

Wer Kindern sagt
Ihr habt gar nichts zu denken
der ist ein Rechter
Wer Kindern sagt
Es ist ganz gleich was ihr denkt
der ist ein Rechter

Wer Kindern sagt
was er selbst denkt
und ihnen auch sagt
dass daran etwas falsch sein könnte
der ist vielleicht
ein Linker

Don't give yourself too much credit sunshine. The OP is obviously being provocative. People take the bait either unwillingly or deliberately. But hey. Sometimes it's just fun to take the bait, chew on it a bit, then spit it right back at 'em. ;)

Oh yeah, more correct you could not be. XD

Obviously any thread where anyone says so much as "boo!" to you, precious, has to be shut down. But paradoxically, I agree. The sooner this revolting sweaty masturbatory virtue signalling circle jerk is closed the better. But it's good for a bit of an ol' laugh in'it eh? XD

Laughs galore:)
Everyone has an opinion and they think their's is the correct one.

+1 to you, good sir!



And one more time because I'm ROFLing even as I type this. X-D

You can't have a different opinion in this place without some dimwit tagging you as a troll.
