Do you think the "zoom and enhance" trope is dead, now that "enhance" basically means "hallucinate"?

    It always meant “hallucinate”, that’s why it was funny.

    No, because that scene from Red Dwarf beat everyone to the punch.

      I love Red Dwarf sooo much but I believe that was from the episode Back to Earth from 2008 and was parodying Blade Runner from 1982 as well as CSI from 2000.

      Now I want to see someone recreate this scene with one of the hallucination machines.
