Can we all agree that the stupidest thing is that Homeland Security is called when someone is suspected of pirating a movie?

I don't watch cams in the first place because of their shitty quality, so I can't imagine what something done with Google Glass would look like. I can't believe that thing has anywhere close to the resolution or capability of a simple video camera, can it? I mean, I know that micro-SD cards are pretty big nowadays, so maybe storage isn't as much of an issue, but the sheer processing power (or lack thereof) of the Glasses can't be anywhere near what is needed to record a movie at a decent resolution for 1.5+ house...can it?
Do they realize every person in a movie theater today has a camera on what ever model phone they own that is leaps and bounds beyond what google glass is even close to?
Things like this make you wonder just how clueless some people in positions of power actually are.

Agree 100%. would be like calling the FBI on someone who orders water at McDonalds but then fills their cup with Sprite. Just a ridiculous waste of time, money, and resources that could be spent on infinitely better purposes

I'm pretty sure you would be pulled out of a movie theater if you sat there filming the whole movie with your phone too.
Like I said, there's a fuckton of stupid from all parties in that story, but the "google glass has a shitty camera so it should be allowed" argument is pretty short sighted. I don't think it's the least bit strange if movie theaters ban people from wearing google glass while watching the movie.
Kind of pointless to debate it. I think it is far far easier to get to the movie early, find a good spot where you can prop your phone on an arm rest or on the folded up seat next to you so that the movie is in the center of view and in focus. If you try to use glass you must spend 2 hours with your head completely still, not get up to use the bathroom, and or get a drink. You solve nothing by banning them and just add another task to an already minimum wage under appreciated employee to enforce.
"Horrible movie. Random unexplained scene of main character dropping a deuce and getting popcorn refill. Made absolutely no sense, still confused."

I know they are becoming wildly popular with young hipster parents for taking candid videos/shots of there spawns of satan
The Split isn't entirely ugly... but they need some designers of real glasses to put their touch on it. I wonder if it's too heavy for rimless glasses?

Hopefully they will have better looking versions from this partnership

I'd love one to play with, also easier to wear them in public since downtown Vegas has quite a few w/ all the tech startups and other companies moving in/hanging around.
Like joeboo, I'd need one in the $300 range. Get it down that low and takemymoney.jpg.
