The Bayer Myth

We could start to talk about 3 chip vs. Bayer, but I have yet to see a 3 chip anything - camera or projector - where the chips are 100% aligned. So Bayer seems less of an issue somehow, especially as the most 35mm area sensors provide enough cells to enable 'super pixel' 2K compared to 3 chip camera's HD. And obviously 4K is possible if the de-Bayering algorithm used is a good one (for 4K Bayer cameras obviously).

You're Les Miserables!

by Victor Hugo

One of the best known people in your community, you have become
something of a phenomenon. People have sung about you, danced in your honor, created all
manner of art in your name. And yet your story is one of failure and despair, with a few
brief exceptions. A hopeless romantic, you'll never stop hoping that more good will come
from your failings than is ever possible. Beware detectives and prison guards bearing
vendettas.

Zodiac: Director's Cut

Apparently David Fincher’s Zodiac: 2-Disc Director’s Cut will be arriving in 2008... And of course, this new release will be packed with special features missing from the single disc version... I wonder, how much longer could Fincher’s directors cut be? I was one of the few people that really fell in love with this film, but a lot of people have complained that the film is too long and that Fincher was given too much room to “do his own thing”.

Musical Blackmail

You may have noticed that the only ones howling about it are the retailers. They're threatening not to stock any Prince albums as a form of pay-back. Here's the thing. Would you really want to do business with people whose chief form of negotiation is blackmail?

For a joke blog, Fake Steve always comes out with pretty nasty on the money analysis.

(Part of me would like to believe its the real Steve who pretends he's a fake so he can call the real shit on iTards)
