Did you see the headline about the season ender for Enterprise being shot in 3D? It says:

As promised, the season finale of Enterprise will take the show in an all-new direction: Instead of warping away into space, the NX-01 will warp right into your living room! That's right, it's coming your way in 3D! Click here to order your glasses!

 

The Interview with Capt. Pike is pretty funny and I also highly recomend the Tribble Interview.

 

:lol: LOL!

I wonder if the 3D one is fake though. I could see them doing something like that, though it would eb expensive. I intend on looking further into that one lol

LOVED the tribble interview. My whole family was busting up laughing.

 

The interview with Captain Pike is even funnier when you look at some of the names of people who submitted questions. Some are spoofs of people who have taken part in celebrity chats or who frequent the Starfleet Lounge.

That Stuff is Great!!!

 

Also, they couldn't do the 3-D thing - you need a special projector, not just glasses.

No zeroc that's not so, I remember watching the Rose Parade on TV in 3D with a pair of glasses I bought at 7-11, there have been others too, like the John Wayne movie Hondo was shown in 3D um... there have been more but I cant remember them. I have all of the souvenir glasses somewhere.

Well, I, Xeroc, am not quite sure about the 3-D thing. It might be possible, but I haven't seen any methods besides the multiple-picture method (One picture next to each other), red & blue method (red and blue pictures superimposed to form a black & white picture), and polarized picture method (like IMAX). What method were those pictures you referred to using?

 

 

Also, check out the survey!!!

Whoops!!! Forgot a method. There is the relative moving 3D glasses. They work by making it so objects moving at different speeds appear father away/closer. I bet this is what you were referring to. This only requires glasses but it isn't a very good method. They could do that, but paramount wouldn't spend that kind of money.

No Xeroc, there were no fancy glasses involved, overnight I remembered another show we saw in 3D on TV, it was the Rolling Stones, I even recorded that one and when it is played back and watched with the glasses, which are the kind with one dark lens and one clear lens, the 3D effect still works.

Yep, the 3-D is possible on TV I still have some glasses from 7-11 here somewhere. I remember the Super Bowl halftime show was in 3-D back in '88 or '89 also wasn't it?

The one-gray-lens glasses are the ones I'm referring to!

DSBS, the avatar is a combination of two short clips from Gambit. One clip is Riker hitting Galen (Picard) and the other of Galen (Picard) backhanding Riker.

 

I really like your signature picture too Rob, more than the other one.
