Cinema lost something when we stopped regularly seeing movies about people at train stations. Waiting for people to arrive, seeing them off, it’s the essence of life and relationships given physical expression.

Some posters on the private IMDb message boards offshoots I came up in would post images like this in the “last film seen + rate it” thread and be like “Stemple’s Theorem (or: I Like to See the Sea) - We all know this bad boy. Got it on KG and watched it in 480p without subs. Beautiful. 10/10.”

I just think everyone in Hollywood should pause, take a deep breath, and remember why they do this in the first place: to harness and share the power of the movies

I'm glad smart people are on the film culture implication beat but I don't have the energy to catastrophize every fucked up corporate merger that happens, a trend that's been going on since before I was born. I still remember the hysterical tweets when Filmstruck was discontinued. cinema prevails!
