Very technical explanation but interesting that no one has done a proper job until now.

I feel for them that their movie was butchered even for the theater and then butchered again how I watched it which was on VHS or maybe dvd.

I'm not sure if the motion was why this movie was terrible though.

I still don't get why people even liked the movie itself.

I get that it was pretty unique, and the art side of it was awesome. That kind of thing hadn't really been done before.

But as a movie to watch? Man, it was just disjointed, with no real sense in any of it. Yeah, visually interesting, and a unique way to go about it all, but just empty. It was like having a stale cigar in a gold and jewel encrusted box. Or maybe like a ruined orgasm, where you get all hyped because the technique is good, but then it just dribbles at the end with no real pleasure.

I dunno, I'm not analogy man.

I remember watching it the first time and being really impressed with the way it was filmed, the way it felt immersive. But then I just ended up shrugging about halfway through and wondering when it would get interesting beyond being an experiment
