The Name of the Rose ~ Sean Connery lead this medieval mystery to winning three awards, love from critics, and millions at the box office.   

Excalibur ~ Do you love Patrick Stewart or Liam Neeson? Without this dark retelling of the King Arthur story that hit #1 at the box office, they may have never been launched into stardom! 🪨 🗡️

In Taiwan early 90s, "MTVs" were like video stores but with laser discs, & when you picked a film, you'd go to a private room with a big screen TV, surround sound & a sofa. 1st saw Terminator 2, Ninja Turtles & Miami Blues that way.

Você já deve ter ouvido falar que os LaserDiscs eram mídias analógicas, mas não sabia o motivo. Então, o Tech Tangents estava com um microscópio dando sopa, pegou um LD e... Agora é possível entender por que tal afirmação. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZuR-772cks

What Happens When You Put a LaserDisc Under a Microscope?

It turns out you can quite literally see an analog signal if the conditions are right—and you look closely enough.

Bought a Pioneer Elite CLD-79 #LaserDisc Player to replace our old one at the hacker space and we inaugurated it with #Akira

Something about sitting around with friends watching the 1995 Criterion master of the film (which was not perfect) projected on a big screen with friends hits differently than the modern 4K restoration.

Even though I can't play this #VHD copy of #Highlander...I assume it's the exact same transfer of this #Laserdisc which I *can* play.
