this morning, as i stepped out of my beach house, on the coast of the mediterranean sea, with the froth of the warm morning ocean licking gently at my toes i pondered what the next major step in the develpoment of 'films' as a genre would be.
Whats that i hear you cry? there already is/has been/ one? well, im talking not in the sense of 'VHS to DVD' when there was just a format change, im talking about a total change in the way films are produced, adding an extra dimention to the film industry. Like the change from 'B&W to Technicolor' that has changed films for good, and now it is almost a rite of passege to make any fiLm in Colour (with a few notable exceptions)
Kids now-a-days would turn their pokemon cards and walk away at the thought of watching a B&W a film, but 15 years ago (or there abouts) this was not an issue.
What will be next? 'smell-o-vision'?, will this really add anything to the fiLm experience and will it be practible, cheap? i dont think so, so where do we go from here? we can already interact with 'films' due to the high standards of video games now, and computer graphics are almost constantly used, so where does this cobbly jilted path lead us to?
20 years from now will people turn a blind eye to the thought of leaving their house to watch a movie at the cinema when they have a top-of-the-range entertainment beast at home, and they can download the lastest movie at the click of a button.
I think that maybe films in their purest form have gone as far as they can, and from here it is simply a matter or more accessable distribution.

Your telling me every time I go to class I keep thinking how nice it would be to own one of those projectors. Theyre damn expensive though, but just imagine playing Tekken on the big screen!
