Hollywood reflects reality? Great! So where's my goddamn warp drive and flux capacitor?
And my Cherry 2000 robot wife? Actually we might be real close to that one.

Paychecks are for sellouts.
This is going on in my home county with all the official stuff going on in my hometown. My position on it is the same. The design is pretty great, but the odds of the finished product matching the design aren't. I still have zero faith in Kevin. There's nothing short-term that will change that. Trust has to be earned.

I'm reminded of Henry Rollins talking about how people think he's an angry person. "I'm not angry _at_ you. I'm angry _for_ you." Louis and Henry both hate seeing people get screwed over (especially by politicians) and are quite vocal about it.
To be fair, being a "nice guy" isn't considered positive in modern parlance.
Louis is probably the best weapon the Right To Repair community has right now.
So might as well spread your cheeks then?
Microsoft would have buried this kind of thing.
Apple, too.
Already fixed here. That was easy.
I miss track points.
Size.
There's no list in TFA.
Will all of them combined even make a dent?
Even a bigger, louder pile of crap is still just crap.
....and have ourselves a snack.
Intermissions used to be a thing. Being able to take a leak and grab another snack/drink halfway through the film used to be a thing.
Hell. For longer films like Titanic or Lord of the Rings, that would be a blessing. Even the "cheap" theater in my hometown is all-digital now so it's not even a matter of splicing more film in. Maybe concession prices could even be lowered since volume would go up?
I'd still probably sneak snacks in, though... as if I even went to theaters anymore. Last film I saw was Sausage Party in 2016 (chaperoning my daughter and her boyfriend for Top Gun 2 in 2022 doesn't count). There's just nothing worth seeing anymore because it all gets streamed almost immediately and even then I rarely care.
