Who Review: The Central Column

Lets examine the 2005 Console. Well the first flaw I can see is they adopted the central column design from the 1996 Fox Movie. The 96 movie saw a break away from convention in that the column extended from the console to the ceiling support structure. It wasn't so much of a problem during McGann's time because the column is slender enough and clear enough to facilitate conversation with people on the other side of the console. The 2005 console has a larger bulkier column that isn't as clear. This limits your shots as a director. Because suddenly you have this giant monstrosity in the room that you need to shoot around. This means your companion has to be right next to you. Or worse still people can hide from you on the other side of the console.
