If only there was a technology that allowed theaters to play movies in an analogue manner that they were in 100% control of. That would be cool. Why hasn’t that ever been invented?
Nothing wrong with digital, just the drm part that sucks
Yeah, and freighting, protecting and maintaining 30mm films in cans is a pain.
And the fact that your access can vanish for no reason at any time.
Also… internet crash. That’s going to be fun for folks.
Maybe we'll have that kind of technology in the future.
im looking at a future that no longer has any working film production equipment because nobody makes parts for such things
Somebody’s collecting all those old projectors and celluloid and that person is going to be the coolest person in whatever city they are in depending on the celluloid they also collect.
In fact — in Portland — a big assed projector would go over huge even today.
I think people are sick to death of the magic of digital streaming.
There are lots of things that can go wrong with film.
The film caught fire when I saw Interview With the Vampire in the theatre. It was awesome.
Yes — but local projectionists maintain the ability to restore the ability to present the films.
When corporations are in charge of everything, humanity is a powerless minion holding its icky tiny gruel filled bowl and whining, “please, sir, May I have some more.”
