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.

Okay, 2nd try: VR like 3D is not going to draw some people to theaters given (A) the costs and drawbacks of theaters, and (B) the convenience of watching a big screen at home. 3D does not add to the actual story telling experience. I am doubtful that VR does either.
If I stay home, I can be vigilant of whether my lawn might be affected by young people's feet.
People today are educated enough to repeat what they are taught but not to question what they are taught.
