Maybe I don’t WANT to see unofficial snaps of the new Spidey suit while the latest movie is still in production.

Epic 1979 Robert McCall concept art for STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE.

Pay phone in Superman (1978). Clark laments that it's not a full booth, so he can't use it to change.

I love pay phones. I love movies. I love payphones IN movies. This thread is a love letter to pay phones in film, and an exploration of their once-ubiquitous role in pop culture. Updated whenever I get spare change. 🧵📌

IT CAME FROM... Genre Pop-Culture Insights and Interviews from David Weiner, Nostalgia Curator.

Friendly reminder that my retro pop-culture blog @itcamefromblog.bsky.social is free, no ads, hand-crafted/written using my brain & fingers on a keyboard; no A.I. images/articles. I do it simply because it brings me joy. I guess I’m just old-fashioned that way… itcamefromblog.com?ref=spelling

Sweet!

Enjoying my retro/nostalgic posts on @itcamefromblog.bsky.social? Please reskeet/spread the word on Bluesky! I’m truly enjoying the post engagement, but kinda struggling to increase my reach to fellow nerds of a certain age…

Jim’s epic shelf of tie-in books is what inspired me to resurface, reclaim, and expand upon the many tie-in books of my happy upbringing!

My new coffee mug is my mantra. Thanks, Stranger Things. ☕️

The epic movie tie-in book shelf at my pal Jim Kunz’s former Hollywood studio where we shot interviews for the first In Search of Darkness doc. Notable happy visitors pictured: Joe Dante, Mick Garris, and Don Mancini (and Jim & me)!

Normally I’m the guy behind the camera, but today I sat in the spotlight to film some promotional material to hype up our IN SEARCH OF DARKNESS: 1995-1999 final pre-sale in October…

It is told entirely from the point of view of the winking fish. Daring narrative choice!

Look closely — it’s there!

Part 2: More tie-ins and vintage movie/TV paperbacks on that line my desk as inspiration.
