Not only images but audios like the characters voices. It's easy to place accents when characters are from an actual place on earth. Like London or southern Tennessee. But why in fantasy adaptations have to go with the UK accents. My dwarves sound like Cajun swamp dwellers and somewhat of the miner accents from the 1950s. My elves sound like noble farmers from the Midwest. My humans vary. Orcs sounds like gorillas with smokers lungs. The list goes on and on.
Hollywood fix your shit.

I'm very interested in this term for a few years now. I have a 3D brain (near full control over my visual cortex while awake) so it's a bit difficult to comprehend. Question. When you recall a memory. Say like a movie scene or an action you just did from a few seconds ago. How is like in your thoughts process?
I not only can recall a memory but I have so many spatial references that I can set up "cameras" and change the camera scenes pov for my entertainment. It does have flaws. As sometimes my imagination overlap the actual observations leading into dyslexia.

That's the best explanation I heard yet. Its amazing how that is opposite on how I comprehend. I have to "see" it to grasp the concepts of meanings. Example if reading a sentence doesn't translate to visually, the words are meaningless and might as well be a foreign language.
My wife recently found out this term amphatasia but wasn't ever able to explain it well with me.
I wonder. Do you "see" dreams?
Edit: Oh another question! I have issues remember names or remember sentences Ive read but yet I can even remember minor details on faces. Is it the opposite with you?
