Polaroid, baby, Polaroid. My Boss would only believe one of my pictures if I used the SX-70, followed by the SLR690. I could fake peel-apart Polaroid using a Matrix camera.

You are correct, as I was reminded up the thread. I always confused those two movies, as they were both not very good.
(Which one had the theatre scene showing a film with a titleof "Rocky 15" or something like that? That was funny, and I can't remember anything else about either of them.)

I thought Demolition Man was very entertaining, and while Judge Dredd received pretty negative reviews I actually liked that one too.

Kent said:What about Subway?
I live near Philly, and I can tell you that Subway subs aren't anything like a real sub. (Or Hoagie as we say in Philly.) The problem is the bread. Subway has the worst bread I have ever had. I'd rather eat at Quizno's.
Now if I'm on the road and my choices are Subway or McDonalds, I'll go to Subway. But only because a fake sub on a bad roll is still better than the best burger at the Clown Shack...
What were we talking about when this thread started? I forgot.

Now that we're on the topic of subs, I have to say that the best subs I get around here is from a local grocery chain. Instead of the Subway approach where the meat is a small decoration on the sub, these guys basically shove a LOG of meat and cheese in there and then sprinkle some greens on top. And you can get a footlong one of those for $6-7.

I'm not so sure about that. How about "it is significantly harder to undetectably fake an emulsion"? And if "authenticity" is so important, there's any number of cryptographic authentication techniques that can be pressed into service (and I think some are used in digital cameras used by police photographers and the like). They'd probably be much harder to get around than faking up a photographic negative.demian said:Film is protection, you can't fake an emulsion.

What do you want from the poor writers?? I thought analogies are "not proving anything"
