...or should that be Bruce Campbell instead of Brendan Fraser in that role?
Seriously, though, I may see it once it comes to my local, cheap, second run theater. It'll be my chance to see tomorrow's "bad, old, sci-fi / horror movie that one loves to hate" today, when it's still in theaters.
So do you think a surround light system would detract from a home entertainment system too, because it would remind you you were at home instead of drawing you closer into the movie?
I think it would work better in a theater than at home because they could make all the curtains and speakers and such a nice neutral grey, where at home you (most likely) have multicolored things around you. Plus there's the screen size.
This sounds really great. What if one were installed in a real movie theater, instead of just darkness? I think that muffled colors could really enhance a movie (but nothing bright enough to make it hard to see).
Imagine The Matrix with monitor-green lighting for computers, muzzle flashes for the lobby fight, firey lighting for the lobby explosion, all on a giant screen. Aww yeah.

Different strokes for different folks.

Next they'll be sueing the trenchcoat manufacturers too, instead of the parents of the wackos like they should be.
They also claim on the iD page that they invented the FPS genre. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Bungie's Pathways into Darkness first?
