Imagine an immersive movie with 360 views.

My neck is already hurting from craning all the time. And I'm guaranteed to miss the best part of the movie because I was looking in the wrong direction.

Moto X (2013) has a 360 demo movie on it. It was alright and neat to spin around in your chair to follow the action, but at the same time I could have sat still and the camera moved.
