No need to run wiring around the room just bring them down the wall behind the big screen. The ultrasound fills the room, and you can feel it no matter which end of the couch you’re on, just as in an AMC, IMAX, or Century theater. Woody was right about the post work on a film. The video has to be smooth, clean, crisp, well scripted and edited with the best special effects post production people can deliver. But it’s the everywhere, all-in audio that makes the film a memorable work of art. Now that we have more subscription services (with more flexible/reasonable pricing options) there are more movie options available. New, different, unique films from around the globe – Europe, Korea, Japan, Africa, India, everywhere – are now available on our screen, when it’s convenient for us and with living, immersive sound, just the way the producer wanted us to experience the project. As Trudy Smith said in The Harder They Fall, “Either they can see it, or they don’t want to.” To which Jim Beckwourth added, “You hearsay. You don’t see-say.” Maybe Jim was wrong. With a new large, technically advanced TV screen, you can see-say at home. And with Dolby Atmos in the room, you can hearsay … and feel it all around you. Oh yes, to really enrich our entertainment we switched off the set’s motion smoothing. It increases the frame rate, filling in the gaps and is a total visual interruption to your viewing. Tom Cruise and other production experts did a PSA a few years ago said it doesn’t improve anything you see on your screen and you’ll be a lot happier using “filmmaker mode”…we are! Maximize your entertainment enjoyment and watch your movies the way they were intended to be seen…straight on in filmmaker mode and your own popcorn.
