Is this the final Utopia of the movies? Or will it represent the muscling-in of inexorable technological progress on the most universally human art form ever devised? Have a vision: a vast theater, filled with people wearing headsets and huge visored helmets, tuning in to a 360-degree circle of images rippling with motion, coruscating with color and sizzling with sound. Are they experiencing the work of the new D. W. Griffith, John Ford, Orson Welles, Jean Renoir, Ingmar Bergman or even Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese? Or are they basking in the multidimensional supersauna of techno-entertainment, tuning in to the ultimate drug of virtuality for the price of a ticket? Roll credits.
