New Year

New Years Day 2000, staying at the Murphys, I watched The Matrix on dvd. I had a pounding hangover and thought my head would explode, but got so engrossed in the film I forgot about the hangover. I had never seen anything like it. The special effects! DVD was so much better than video. I watched it on a wide screen telly, which was cutting edge in those days.
New Year's Eve 2010. Steve and I stay in. I drink a modest few glasses of wine. Earlier that day Steve had bought a PS3 and Inception on a Blu Ray disc. We watch the film on our HD telly and the sound is THX. I have never seen or heard anything like it.
Wonder what 2020 will be like! Will we have all gone 3D or is that just a fad?
By the way, today I woke up fairly early, no hangover!

    In 2020 it will be virtual reality and we'll get to pick which character we want to be in the movie! Or maybe not. :)

    Here's to sticking around to find out! :) Happy 2011!

  2. Happy New Year Book Nut!
    The matrix was the best - I just wished it didn't have those awful sequels.
