From what a quick googling seems to tell me, the whole idea behind
"Duovision" was just a glorified split-screen ala "Time Code."
But lord how I miss hyperbolic trailer announcers that don't come from Asia. :(

Fantastic example of cinema bullshit marketing. A simple split screen showing simultaneously occurring but different events on either side of the screen is given a glossy complicated name and sold as the next breakthrough in cinema technology. You don't need glasses, but you WILL need protective equipment.
Judging from that song, I'm guessing earplugs.

I have to see this movie, if for nothing else for the wonderfully awful themesong.
