Disney exits home video.
That doesn’t kill physical media.
It reshapes it.
From mainstream → to curated labels (Criterion, Arrow, etc).
Less volume. More intention.
Physical media becomes a niche — but a stronger one.

Hoth vibes, four-legged walkers, brutalist sci-fi design.
Star Wars aesthetics still shaping everything.

My first football jersey as a kid was from Real Sociedad.
I still keep that photo from the day they won La Liga — a reminder of identity, pride, belonging.
Tonight they play the Copa del Rey final.
Whatever happens, Aupa Real.

Netflix drops 10%. Paramount swallows WBD whole. Reed Hastings exits after 30 years.
And yet — the biggest winner in all of this might be TikTok.
Short-form is doing to streaming what streaming did to cable. Nobody wants to admit it.

It’s a discovery engine.

The official promo video for The Cannon Group is a reminder of a different era of filmmaking.
Fast, bold, and unapologetically commercial —
yet responsible for some of the most iconic cult films of the 80s.
A studio that turned constraints into identity.

Zodiac (2007) doesn't give you closure. That's the point. Fincher traps you inside the obsession. One scene: Graysmith following a suspect on the highway — baby in the back seat, paranoia taking over. No music. No relief. A masterpiece that refuses to comfort you.

The temple of dreams.
Where I discovered Superman, The Empire Strikes Back, Beetlejuice, Titanic, Armageddon, Aliens, Batman...
Cinema that opened other worlds. And now, a new chapter begins. 🎬

Frohe Ostern — a small reminder that simple rituals (painting, creating, slowing down) still help bring clarity and rhythm back into life.
A good day to pause and reconnect.

Merchant's Arch, Dublin.
A stone arch from the 1800s. Vintage clothes hanging at the entrance. A DJ spinning vinyl for anyone walking past.
Some cities still know how to make culture feel alive.
#Dublin #Vinyl #TempleBar
Dublin quietly does this too: IFI (Temple Bar), Lighthouse (Smithfield), Stella (Rathmines). Three models, one belief — the experience matters as much as the film.
Audiences pay more and travel further for curated, respected cinema spaces.
Cinema isn't dying.
Bad cinema is. #cinema #film
Some cities invest in cinema culture. Others convert their historic screens into clothing shops. 🎞️
Barcelona's Phenomena — single screen, 450 seats, 4K projection — just won the Carlo Lizzani European Cinema Award at Venice. Closing for full renovation. Reopening 2026. Going bigger.
Lean into the nostalgia.
