Cameron’s going for that?
Wow. That could be a game changer.

Hey, LV, what's the top of technology? Is there a point where it literally just cannot get better?
Not to mention the bandwidth from 8k streaming has to be insane.LoathedVermin72 wrote:I haven’t seen 8K yet, so who knows if I’ll change my tune once I do, but right now I am very skeptical that it will ever become a major consumer format. I’m not convinced there’s going to be much, if any, appreciable detail gain between 4K and 8K. On top of that, the amount of meaningful content available in 8K (or even capable of ever delivering 8K worth of detail) is next to nothing.
3D has always been a cyclical thing. It’s been around for a very long time, and its nature seems to be that it comes and goes. People get excited about it for a while, then it fades away again. It will probably come back into style after Avatar 2 comes out, especially if Cameron delivers on his quest for glasses-free 3D.

The goal of tech isn’t to change the fundamental nature of what a movie is; it’s about providing the best and most accurate-to-the-source presentation possible. And with a good 4K HDR set-up and transfer, we’re essentially talking about watching a pristine film print in your living room.
Oh yeah, if we’re talking future content then sure.dimejinky99 wrote:LoathedVermin72 wrote:That’s not a movie anymore though.

Netflix are already developing series that do that choose what happens next thing though.

They're very pro Bay and have made me kinda respect him.
