this'll probably turnout to be a shite thread, buh' fuckit anyways...

Apart from our current team playin at a Holographic Maine Road v Busby's United team or even Shankly's Liverppol Football Club, who would you like to see or even go to see in Hologram form ?


Back in 1977 we all buzzed at Princess Leia beggin Obi Wan for help, 2 years ago Tupac decided to take a break from his Cuban cigar beamed down for a concert, the other night Michael Jackson had his turn to plug his new album...

Wonder who's next ! ? !

I'm just off for a Princess Leia- inspired tug, I'll think about it..
 
They look more impressive than they are. Hologram is a bad term for them.

Do you know that transparent plastic cling film that you wrap sandwiches in?

It's just a projector that projects onto a mirror on the floor which reflects onto a sheet of that which the rest of the band/artists stand behind. Works in the same way as an old arcade does if you remember that. It's also why the position of the crowd is very important to the illusion as if you don't look at it straight on then you'll see it has no depth.

I couldn't really see how a football match would work. Maybe they could use that 3D technology we have on TVs now where we have that "depth" thing and combine it. Would still have to view it straight on though

youre not getting anywhere near my porn collection

next thing you know they'll all be doing it just for the money :P
 
I'm sure I read somewhere that a Michael Jackson hologram tour was imminent - I can't see the point of going to see a concert by a dead bloke personally - even if the imagery is impressive and realistic, I just wouldn't be able to spend my disbelief that I was watching footage of someone who was no longer with us.
What next - the Stones reincarnated with a hologram Brian Jones?
Joy Division with a manic 3D Ian Curtis?
The Clash with a defibrillated Joe Strummer?
It's just wrong in my opinion.
 
Would anyone fuck a hologram Marilyn Monroe?

Just me?

when MJ was alive you werent seeing the real person ...you were watching a bit of plastic cavort and squeal a bit on stage...whats the difference?...

if i had the technology I'd put ghandi and hitler in a romanian brothel
 
the audience could all wear ''first person view glasses'' to solve the viewing angle problem.

A strange thread even by BM's remarkable standards.
