  • Ah okay, I mean I buy that part too but I think that’s more investors and the film industry themselves to blame.

    I say that, but I also blame Apple for getting the industry on removing the SD card slot, headphone jack too. So I follow the same logic it seems.

    I also think Netflix and streaming have changed things. A lot more interesting shows are being streamed and we likely don’t hear about them either with the market segmentation on different platforms. There’s a chance more people would go to the cinema to watch more “spectacle” or “events”. I think that’s kinda been shown because the MCU has been throwing bomb after bomb up until Deadpool and Wolverine.



  • I had a friend that voted for Brexit. When I asked him why, he said that his grandfather was able to buy a house and take care of his family on his salary. His father was able to do the same. He said, these immigrants come in and live two families to a house and are willing to work for far less. He said, I don’t want that type of future for myself.

    No amount of telling him that – the people that caused this issue are also benefitting from Brexit – could convince him.

    Was weird because I wasn’t an immigrant but my family was and he was cool with me.

    I don’t know if I’d trust any of the text around it until we see more … the picture doesn’t seem like it matches at all.

    I mean, you can downvote me but the text seems utterly ridiculous. If it’s real then you guys are right, but it certainly doesn’t seem like a believable story.
