VR is about to get a creative filmmaker's touch.
Ridley Scott's RSA Films production company is launching a new imprint "dedicated exclusively to the creative development and production of VR (virtual reality), AR (augmented reality) and mixed media." It's called RSA VR.
RSA VR's first project is a VR Experience for "Alien: Covenant," in partnership with Twentieth Century Fox and Technicolour.
"We have been heavily involved in VR for the past few years, and having a dedicated stand-alone division underscores our commitment to immersive media in both the brand and entertainment space," RSA Films' president Jules Daly said.

But movie theaters have overstuffed reclining chairs now. Match that at home, I think you can't.

I've got that beat easily! Couple weeks ago the girlfriend and I decided to drag my bedroom mattress in front of the projector. I've got a futon in there already, so we pulled the mattress from that to use as a massive pillow. Food, drinks, had a smoke, laid down, and watched ...something...hell if I remember what though! ;)
But yeah, why would I go to a theater when I can lay in bed and watch the thing on a 100" screen that's two feet above my toes? At that distance it might as well be a friggin' IMAX...

Because at home you miss out on reserving your seat, showing up to the showing 30 minutes late, and kicking out the dweebs who assumed you weren't coming and moved into your prime location. Obviously.
