The Matrix was dumb, Bullet Time is dumb, especially all of those dozens of cameras that have to go off precisely in a row, and if it's done any other way, it's C... G... I!

Did the Amiga of 1985 inspire the PC world of 1995? Pre-emptive multitasking OS (Windows 95) and dedicated graphics hardware (3DFX)? Methinks so.
All graphics on a PC up until 3dfx came out were done by CPU, and 3dfx was a dedicated hardware alternative, very much like Agnus and Denise, and you could say that the Gravis Ultrasound was like Paula too. All much more advanced, of course.
I'm talking about personal home computers, bifat. Unix hardware was very expensive in 1985.

Almost all other home computer ranges have a single sound chip in their models, but not the Atari 16/32-Bit range, it's so confusing

hot multimedia: By "Sleeping in Light", do you mean Babylon 5? Damn, that was one HELL of an emotional finale for Sci-Fi TV!
Um, real lemmings do not commit suicide, Disney filmmakers pushed dozens of them off a cliff into the sea and filmed it for some fake wildlife documentary, and that's how the urban legend started

There were no vandals at the reflecting pool, only peeling shoddy work done by a contractor who looked like a cartoon villain! Trump sure knows how to pick the cheapest and worst!
