@RoyPrice I'd go further and put it all the way back to the introduction of sound and color. Innovation has always been resisted. But there will be people who will use generative AI in an artful and thought provoking way, just as there will be lots of junk alongside it
@PincherMartin8 I wanted the photography and screen ratio of Casino to be like Goodfellas. Grittier.
Agree about Pesci. Thought Deniro and Stone were great. Couldn't get through Wolf of Wall Street.
@budsepsisalive@ArtOfDialogue_ I think second run and repertory theatres are better for that. There's a couple where I live. Those definitely attract people within a community. Plus they have other events besides movies. But chain muliplexes? Just a bunch of strangers in the dark
