What was going on with the hexagonal porn cinemetric? I thought it would have looked more like the Aliens visualization, active all over the place rather than six discrete chunks.

Darkhorse you pervert ;) That's my favorite metric actually because it shows the more interesting potentials of this program. What if all commercials had to be sent through this filter in order to be broadcast? Say it had to pass a certain framework.

I think maybe it's chunky because a particular 'scene' in porn lasts longer than in most other movies. Let's say a bedroom scene might last for 25-30 minutes and there are only 4 or 5 scenes per length of film. The colors are great too - must be all those money shots. I'd like to see this metric compared to something like 'Russian Ark'
