SlashFilm: Yeah, exactly. That’s what I–
Roger Deakins: I mean, it’s had a good run, hasn’t it?
SlashFilm: [Laughs] Wow.
Roger Deakins: You know, I’m not nostalgic for a technology. I’m nostalgic for the kind of films that used to be made that aren’t being made now.

Cinema chains dimming movies "up to 85%" on... →
dailybunch:
The best part: reportedly the employees at the theatre chains hate changing the lenses because of the insanely-strict DRM on Sony’s digital projectors, which “will shut down on you” if a small mistake is made during the reset process. As a result, they don’t bother changing them at all, because for the $9/hr movie theatre employee, screening a poor resolution film is better than no...

Q: What's the mistake with psychology and self-reflection?
A: "There's something profoundly wrong—as wrong as the Spanish Inquisition was. The Spanish Inquisition had one goal, to eradicate all traces of Muslim faith on the soil of Spain, and hence you had to confess and proclaim the innermost deepest nature of your faith to the commission. And almost as a parallel event, explaining and scrutinizing the human soul, into all its niches and crooks and abysses and dark corners, is not doing good to humans. We have to have our dark corners and the unexplained. We will become uninhabitable in a way an apartment will become uninhabitable if you illuminate every single dark corner and under the table and wherever—you cannot live in a house like this anymore. And you cannot live with a person anymore—let's say in a marriage or a deep friendship—if everything is illuminated, explained, and put out on the table. There is something profoundly wrong. It's a mistake. It's a fundamentally wrong approach toward human beings."
