Last year NASA said it would allow two private astronaut missions a year. Now NASA apparently said it is working with Tom Cruise about filming a movie on the ISS.

Unless they want to go for that Blair Witch cinematography effect, given the limited volume to move around in the ISS — and the need for a small film crew — I wonder if this would be a case where you'd actually prefer a green screen instead.

    Now, as for filming, modern imaging sensors can capture 120fps in higher than IMAX resolution from a unit smaller than your fist

    Citation? You might be right about the *sensor*, but I'm incredulous if this includes the recording mechanism (not to mention the lens).
