Zero Point: The First 360-Degree Movie Made For the Oculus Rift 53
Zothecula writes "The Oculus Rift has carved out a sizable reputation for itself among gamers, but virtual reality has many applications beyond playing video games. Now one production studio is preparing to release the first movie shot specifically to be watched through the VR headset. The upcoming film, called Zero Point, will focus on the history and development of virtual reality technology, while allowing viewers the freedom to look around each scene as the movie progresses."

The kickstarter was in August 2012 and all they seem to have done since then is spend kickstarter / VC money and repeatedly redesign thier product as newer technologies become available / cheaper. Still no date for actually shipping a product.
It's a hardware product, they can't just fix it in a patch, it needs to be good enough before they ship it or they'll destroy all the hype they've built for VR.
