Netflix is deleting more content, removing two Emmy nominated shows from the platform. For those concerned about media preservation, this is a huge red flag.

The IMAX Shortage: How the Lack of Premium Theaters Hurts Audiences Premium formats like IMAX and Dolby drive ticket sales, but most theaters only have one β€” or none at all. That’s a problem.

The lack of premium theaters is hurting audiences, filmmakers, and movie theaters, as everyone is competing for a tiny amount of screen real estate.

Why Collecting Movies is More Than Just Nostalgia Nostalgia is great, but building a movie collection is a lot more than just reliving the video store glory days.

Collecting movies is about much more than just nostalgia. Film preservation, ownership, quality, discovery, and community are all just as important to collectors, myself included.
