@Polly_Phluid @deesnider Agreed. And Nigel Planer talked them last night at Old Woollen in Farsley. Enormous fun.

Cliffhanger was my third major movie press conference after Split Second and The Fugitive. Remember it well. My “exclusive” interview appeared in Impact - The Action Movie Magazine.

@JohnDensmore So Bruce is a Doors fan? That’s cool.

Physical media all the way… 📚

[Fandom Pulse @fandompulse]

Peter Jackson laments the death of physical media:

“You can get Blu-rays and DVDs, but they’re almost a niche product for aficionados now,” Jackson said. “Since they only sell small numbers, no studio wants to put extended features on them or to extend the cuts. We did hours and hours of behind-the-scenes material for The Lord of the Rings DVDs, and so many people have thanked me for doing them. People would watch that stuff over and over again because it inspired them to make films. That’s all gone now, and I think it’s a real shame.”

Do you still get real books and DVDs?

[TONY EARNSHAW, Esq. @TonyEarnshaw]

@NigelPlaner1 Tickets bought. Am assuming books will be on sale on the night (in Farsley) and you’ll sign them.

This 👇

[Dave @GamewithDave]

They removed CD/DVD drives from devices.
They made physical media harder to buy and use.
They removed expandable storage from phones.
They pushed us into streaming subscriptions.
They made always-online normal.
They made unlimited internet necessary.
Then slowly raised the price of everything.

Ownership quietly became renting.

Be a hero like John.
