8mm / Cine then Video then DVD - what name now?

Post by Santa_Claus » Fri Sep 30, 2011 9:22 am

The ability to have moving pictures always seems to have been named after the technology utilised......but digital movie just doesn't trip of the tongue like Video and DVD did.

Or have I missed the Zeitgeist (again :hehe: ).
I am Leader of all The Atheists in the world - FACT.

Come look inside Santa's Hole :ninja:

You want to hear the truth about Santa Claus???.....you couldn't handle the truth about Santa Claus!!!

'Anamorphic widescreen' and 'CinemaScope' didn't either.
