The result is a movie theater experience with a 270-degree field of view that filmmakers can use for super-widescreen imagery, or treat as three discrete screens, each with their own shots and action, if desired.
I watched the latest episode of ‘Gotham’ last night and was taken back with how Oswald Cobblepot got even at the end of the show. That boy ain’t right.
