I have heard of no such thing! We’ll probably see more and more of these places pop up in the next few years, though, as DVDs become as undesirable as old VHS tapes to the masses.

As of today, the following Universal-controlled movies are now available on digital video on demand for the very first time. Some real hidden gems here. I'm a fan of Love Slaves of the Amazons, which I talked about here: www.cerealatmidnight.com/2022/05/revi...

The same goes for movies. They can often say new things to us depending on where we're at in our lives and the experience we've gained.

When retail is dead and malls are gone and I’m feeling nostalgic and sad, I’ll need to remember waiting 30 minutes to buy one item because the entire store was being run by less than five people.

I had this issue in my backpack one day in middle school and another classmate saw it and started making fun of me for still liking Disney. This girl in the class said “I like Disney too, leave him alone!” We were, like, 11 or 12 years old. Now I’m creeping up on 50 and I still like Disney.

Maybe they're going to license it out to someone else, but if they don't, fans will (and arguably should) turn to piracy. Fans will take care of the shows they love when the studios that distribute them fail to serve the audience.

Arrow Video's end of the year releases are also some of the BEST of the year. Let's check out Shawscope Vol. 4, the TMNT trilogy, The Mask, and more!

Antenna TV channels are like "here's four minutes of Bewitched interrupted by a five minute commercial about stockpiling gold."
Seriously, these shows are cut so heavily, they must be missing 50% of their run time. Grit is the worst culprit of all.

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.
Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.
This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

As it should. Netflix is not a friend to movies, to movie theaters, and to cinema history. They exist solely to farm watch minutes from their subscribers and feed their shareholders quarter after quarter.
