Amazing
Quake II mod:
You finally saw the yacht in the seemingly random bunch of dots! You can see the dinosaurs and dolphins in the Magic-Eye books! Now use your skills to free yourself from your evil extra-dimensional zombie oppressors! Welcome to Quake II as it was never meant to be.
Quake II AbSIRD is a modification of the Quake II graphics engine to produce SIRDS instead of standard 3D images.
I was never very good at seeing those magic-eye things, but it always surprised me how cool it was when I did get it. Of course the first thing I wondered was whether you could produce the effect with moving images. Evidently you can. Not sure this has any practical applications (I guess it depends on how hard it is to see and whether it gives you a massive head ache and makes you cross eyed or something like that,) but I'd love to try it out. Windows only unfortunately.

I have low hopes for
V for Vendetta, since Alan Moore comic adaptations to film haven't been good so far, and he's disowned this one. The Wachowsis have some balls, though--this is about a terrorist blowing up buildings in a near-futuristic but Thatcher-like England. It's a really unsettling comic.
