Wow. I didn't consider that would be a problem beyond giving people headaches or maybe a little motion sickness.
The Pokemon stuff was crazy. Tons of colors and flashing lights in the background during specific scenes, and a lot of kids going to the hospital for seizures.
I thought it had to be like a lot of full screen flashing to trigger a seizure. But just the flashing of space lasers can trigger it too, huh?

Well, I was definitely wrong about the reverse psychology aspect.
As far as I know, Ridley didn't apologize to any of her remarks yet (good for her), but she has now come out and said that anybody who voted for Trump is insane, when talking shit about her own PM.
So she's an anti-Brexit, anti-Trump elitist like the rest of them. How's that for subverting expectations, huh?
I'm sure that's going to play well in the lead up to a movie that a lot of people have already said they're not going to pay to see.
My prediction is that Bob Iger is not going to be occupying that seat much longer. They're going to replace him with a stunning and brave female, but at the same time she's going to get her idiot actors to STFU and keep their political opinions to themselves going forward so Disney doesn't continue to hemorrhage money on franchises that should have been money trees for decades to come.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Yes, and it can be lots of bright flashes going at high speed that if someone has a seizure disorder can cause them.
In a child it can be hard to know what could possibly trigger a seizure, if they weren't born with them. In an adult it is a little more specific usually they are caused by a traumatic brain injury which is what the tumour is "classified" for me and what caused my seizures along with the surgery.
I haven't seen any of the later "Tron" films. Once and this was years ago, I borrowed a copy of the second one from a local library. Thought nothing of it but about 10 minutes into the film, I had to turn it off. The graphics were driving me bugging and I was worried that I would have a seizure. So, I turned it off.
At some scenes in the last Star Wars movie I had to close my eyes. Had to do that in the second prequel movie as I felt as though I was going to have a seizure. Told my neurologist what happened and he said I probably was experiencing little ones through that particular scene. It was one of the space battles. Lots of flashing and things whizzing on screen. Not nice.

Jeez... I feel for you.
Did you see Edge of Tomorrow? If you did, how did that effect you.
Just asking because it's one of the only new sci-fi movies I've seen in years.

Don't think I've seen that. What's it about?
That is why I am so careful about watching sci-fi even though it is my favourite movie genre.

Edge of Tomorrow?
That's one of my favorite Sci-Fi movies of all time. Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt. It's the movie where he dies during a war with aliens and keeps waking up to live the same day over and over again.
If you want to see a badass chick kick ass and be totally believable about it in a movie that isn't pandering to anybody, you owe it to yourself to at least give the movie a try.
I won't say it's worth risking an epileptic seizure to watch it, but it's totally worth risking an epileptic seizure to watch it.

Might have to see if I can find that at my local library. Could be interesting because I don't know about it.

Yeah. It's a great movie. I won't say any more about it and ruin anything for you.
I can't recall if there are any scenes in it that might be triggers, but I don't really think so. There's quite a bit of CGI in it, but it's mostly on the ground battle stuff more like Starship Troopers than Star Wars. I didn't have any problems following the action like I do when watching a lot of the movies out there today with a billion things happening on the screen at the same time. A lot of the movie outside the battle scenes is pretty chill too.
Let me know if you check it out.
Oh, BTW... an alternate title for the movie was Live, Die, Repeat. I think the box for the DVD says that very prominently, although the actual movie title is on the bottom corner of the DVD. You might want to look for both titles.
And if you like the movie even half as much as I did, I think you're going to get a kick out of the last 30 seconds of it.

My wife also has a seizure disorder and there is one scene that did bother her a little bit, it takes place at night. It didn't actually trigger anything but she did look away for a minute. We both really enjoyed the movie and recommend it. (Hopefully JSF doesn't find out we're talking about it 
)

Which movie you talking about now, Moose?
Thread kind of got de-railed here (my bad), and just want to make sure you're referring to Edge of Tomorrow now and not one of the SW movies.
