I was not just making a joke, amigo. I am old enough that I used this stuff back in the day. I graduated from dialing into BBSes on my Commode 64 to this stuff. And I am amazed and happy that it is still around.

But what about Veronica?

This is ART.

Thank you, Mr. Watterson. The world would LOVE more of this if you're ever inclined.

Consumers are getting fucked. Media companies will continue to make it worse while trying to improve their bottom line. How long until it is all pay per view at sky high prices that only keep going up?

I try to own my media in physical form as much as possible. But I don't think it will be long until physical is not an available format. Or unaffordable, like vinyl is now.

We should have resisted and stopped the DMCA. We should stop all media being rental only. But we do not resist, we comply. We bend over and get fucked like the sheeple we are.

Until consumers take control of their government they will continue to take it up the ass from corporations. They count on you to comply.

I would start reading Rolling Stone and similar stuff. The radio should also help.

Or are you looking specifically for only hip-hop?

I also saw it in the theater. So tragic that it did so poorly in theatres.

Visually stunning. There are some amazing looking scenes, standout being the huge holographic woman.

Tragic storytelling. These poor goddamn replicants who are so close to human.

Fascinating characters both real and virtual.

Instant classic. Different from the original and both better and worse.

I own this on blue ray. Thanks for the reminder, I need to rewatch both of these awesome films.
