Tech that's just wrong

Films on phones: The smallest screen
Cinema is a visual medium. The silver screen is a glorious canvas for technicolour fantasy, 24 feet by 10 feet of unbounded imagination. Watching a film on the big screen has the power to transport us.

Watching on a 8 by 6 centimeter screen is not the same. So you can watch Lawrence of Arabia while you're on the bus. Does that mean you've experienced the power and majesty of David Lean's sweeping vistas? No. You can watch The Wild Bunch on the train. Does that mean you've been drawn in by every squalid detail of Sam Peckinpah's old west? No. You can watch Transformers on the toilet. Does that mean you've appreciated the astoundingosity of the transformation effects? Heck no.

We're with David Lynch on this one. The weird-haired (and foul-mouthed, we warn you) auteur recently pointed out that when you watch a film on a phone, you think you've seen it, but you haven't. And he's right.
