[MnMop]

i kept expecting someone to crack a joke and say "help me obi wan kenobi you're our only hope" or something.

actually, i think the woman mentioned how she felt like princess leia, so you weren't that far off.

This technology is going to have big implications when it comes to virtual sex.

I saw Will I Am like that yesterday and it almost blew me away...

It's neat, if they can keep it working well, why not go with it.
It does look fucking weird... BUT THIS IS THE FUTURE! haha

Well, I must admit that it looks pretty cool, but I think all in all it's a pretty wasteful luxury that definitely is not necessary in the news room. It's more of a cool trick than anything else. I don't see what's wrong about the split screen. Maybe if it gets used more they'll be able to do more with it, but for right now I don't really think it's necessary.

This is the future of modern television. They actually filmed this with 36 cameras.

More importantly, let's discuss John King's purpose now that the elections are over.

I thought it was kind of dumb really. What does it accomplish?

[tacosforcharles]

Totally badass.

[MnMop]

right now, it seems like they did this just to show that they could... no other true purpose that i know of.

You are obsessed. I thought the holograms were cool.

[writeacliche]

That's incredible. We've reached "the future" our great grandparents talked about in science fiction movies.

or not.

but it's still sweet.

I think the more pressing question is about Wolf Blitzer and when does he sleep?

[loveisdead]

Kings on it now haha.

[justinmfi]

Thats freakin nuts.....welcome to the future Marty McFly!!!

[tambam]

It's too stereotypically 'futuristic' for me.

[c_rob2700]

Mind bottling.

[saysmydoctor]

King is still alive? I'd figure they'd kill him as he and his fingers serve no purpose.
