    2. I remember when Netflix sent acting troupes to perform in the round, and it could take weeks for them to get there by caravan!

    4. I switched to Amazon after it took F-O-R-E-V-E-R to get the Zapruder film. I know it was a new release but come on!

    5. You silly kids have got it too good. I remember when the only Netflix distributor was based outta Alexandria, Egypt. You sent away for the next scroll in the book you were reading; back in my day, movies were known as books and you had an unlimited budget. And George Lucas didn't come around 20 years later and try to change what you'd imagine. And it could take months to get the next scroll, cause Rome was just a goat herding village back then and they hadn't built the roads yet. I tells ya, you haven't lived until you've read Gilgamesh in the original cuneiform. Now get off my lawn!

  6. Sure, he's a jerk . . . but there was Home Film Festival in 1992, and Video Mailbox before that.
