Things have been pretty light on Pixar loving of late but that ain’t gonna last too long with the release of Toy Story 3. No doubt its going to be a masterpiece of style, technical wizardry, storytelling and everything else that they do all so well (its all guesswork until I see it but lets face it, Pixar don’t exactly do bad films…). So ye can all drool over the visuals but what caught my eye is that Pixar, along with Skywalker Sound and Dolby Laboratories, have developed a new 7.1 surround sound configuration for the film to be viewed in – unfortunately Dolby are essentially men-in-white-coats and lack the creative genius of Pixar so the best name they could come up with was well….Dolby Surround 7.1.
Nerds, put your specs on, things are gonna get wordy!!
