    Excellent work, Andrew! You must have put a ton of hours into the video edits, but it all flowed really well. Best yet, for sure. I have to agree, Toy Story 3 was the perfect ending and Toy Story 4 was completely unnecessary. Subtraction by addition. I'm sorry to hear there will be a Toy Story 5, I had no idea. I won't make that mistake again. Also, great shout out to the man, the myth, the legend that is... Scott! Sterling!

    I was thinking back in 1980 which was when The Shining hit the theaters, & the fiilm involves about Isolation. NO ONE Couldn't Predict the Exact Fate that WE'VE ALSO Suffered The Same Isolation, when the World went into The Lockdown, due to Covid19 within 40 years later in 2020! That was a Very Brilliant Way for you to Put that! It wasn't Healthy for Jack & his family, let alone Delbert Grady & His own family. But it Wasn't Healthy for Us either however, fortunately no one went Mad & turned into a Homicidal Axe Maniac behind closed doors. (I don't think, Lol!) This was a Very Good video!

    Thanks for the video. As to the "plot hole" you mentioned: while you're right that it doesn't matter, as the film is in part a fairy tale and that isn't at all the point of the film (just like it doesn't matter that we don't see the police/clean-up crews show up at the end of III to inspect the destroyed DeLorean, as that would only clutter the ending with something that doesn't matter), there is no plot hole there. It's been thirty years since they've seen a kid they knew for a week, and human memories are extremely volatile, even with life-changing events. I guarantee you that, within five years, Lorraine remembers Calvin as being taller and buffer than he really was, as she thought of him as strong and an absolute dream. Her mental image of him would slowly alter to suit those brief emotions she had. After thirty years, George and Lorraine would have completely different mental images of what he looked like--one would remember him as a blonde, the other as brunette, one with blue eyes, the other with brown, one as tall, the other as short...ah yes, I remember it well... So, not plot hole, just human brains functioning as human brains do. I've been watching this film for thirty years and also keep getting new things out of it as the decades go by. It's excellent, and truly special. I don't think I could ever tire of it. They are some of my most-watched movies.

    Gallo and I both have Lego DeLoreans. Just sayin. She saw the Broadway play and I have not, so she's definitely got me on that one. This is one of those stories that they nailed the first time and never should have tempted lightning to strike twice in the same place (pun intended). Love the Halloween photos, I vividly remember the second one! :)

      I’m kinda iffy on the idea of adapting Back to the Future into to a broadway show. I mean the source material is so perfect that attempting to capture that again but as a musical just rubs me the wrong way. As a massive fan of the film I’m curious to see if they can even attempt to recapture the magic of the movie but I remain skeptical.

    Okay, I greatly appreciate the subject matter, but I feel this is your best video yet. The background music was a nice touch (appropriate for the mood and also not distracting). The use of clips was the best I've seen as well. You stepped up your game for this one, which is highly appropriate considering the content. :) And you added a lot of content and context of your own, which was a great touch. Awesome work, Andrew.

    All of the good that the first two movies was undone by ewoks and then years later, by Jar Jar and the sequel squad. Star Wars is such a farce....you know what Lucas's nickname was out in California? Lucky. I enjoyed Star Wars as a child. Now I puke at the sight of it.

    Well thought-out and analyzed, cogent, and clear. That painting Cameron was looking at was probably the most famous pointilist painting, "A Saturday Afternoon on Isle of La Gran Jatte" (or something like that) by Seurat.

    Great movie, been watching it since I was 9 years old. When the movie was a fanciful look at a way off future. Way ahead of its time. Today many things I saw in the movie in terms of tech have come true in one way or another. But my real question is, What would you do if someone gave you a catskin wallet?

      Disk rot usually is a manufacturing error and is easy to spot very early on. It can still appear much later in a discs life span, but the problem is a bit overblown.

      A bit overblown? It’s hugely overstated. 99% of the people who bring it up have never owned a dvd or a cd and never want to and are just trying to fearmonger Discrot only affects an absolutely tiny percentage of discs. Vastly, vastly, vastly under 1%. Probably not even 0.00000000001% of discs are rotted

    One of the most important aspects of movies and art in general is reach out to our emotions, make us reflect and think, and make us better persons, not all movies demonstrate this, but it's beatiful the attention Spiderman 2 gives to themes with which teens and young adults can relate. Having understanding and paying tribute to emotional themes and social commentary give meaning to movies in the long run. Great video, thanks for sharing.

So Streaming Companies never provided us with the promised Quality How would 4k work when even HD is not working. And we are paying for the poor quality.
