  1. Re:IMAX - not so much on Delivering 8K VFX Shots For the Dark Knight · · Score: 1

    It definitely varies with each theater. I went to the King of Prussia, PA IMAX theater and the IMAX scenes were clearly sharper than the others. It was nice. I don't know if it was nice enough to justify the higher ticket price, mind you, but it was still cool.

  2. Re:end of the franchise on Batman Discussion · · Score: 1

    I agree that the Joker storyline should end (and it was wrapped up perfectly already; Joker alludes to their eternal struggle), but that doesn't mean we can't explore Batman's relationships with other villains. I'm not sure which villains can be done with the same sense of epicness and realism that Nolan has been so good at, but I'm partial to Catwoman (in part to help us forget about Halle Berry's rendition).

  3. Re:It was pretty good on Batman Discussion · · Score: 1

    It's weird to me that so many people still regard Burton's 1989 Batman so highly. To me, it's too campy with Joker being silly and never really evil, and his dancing to Prince music. Maybe it's because I only started reading comic books recently, and of the old ones that I read, I pick and choose the darkest Batman stories. The Batman and Joker I know have been best represented by Christopher Nolan and company.

  4. Re:Undercutting networks, retailers, etc. on Apple's Moment — Consumers Want To Download To TV · · Score: 1

    It's not just the pennies of server time, it's producing the show, making a profit comparable to the profit of showing it on TV with advertisements, having Apple take a cut, etc.

  5. Re:WE're using the cows? on Cloned Beef Coming Soon? · · Score: 1

    Chickens have their beaks cut off so they don't peck each other, though. It's extremely painful, and their lives are pretty crappy. Turkeys are too fat to walk easily anymore. I'm not sure they like this progress.

  6. Re:WHAT ethical issues... on Cloned Beef Coming Soon? · · Score: 2, Informative

    We haven't been factory farming for thousands of years, though. Farming in the past half century is vastly different from the way it was prior.
