Television is also why movies started getting more extreme. At least in the Queen’s country. When the BBFC introduced the X rating to try and moral cuck the cinemas, making you need a loicense proving you were over 16 to get in to certain movies, it had the opposite effect; studios just started intentionally trying to gun for the X rating so they wouldn’t have to make family friendly stuff, which finally give people a reason to go to the theatres. Which I guess is why Hammer horror movies also double as titty movies.

I remember seeing Fire Walk with Me on Criterion Blu-ray and thinking this is the best looking movie I’ve ever seen on my TV. I don’t know how the upcoming 4K release could possibly look significantly better. For some movies, 4K just seem like diminishing returns. I definitely couldn’t care less about seeing Full Metal Jacket on 4K or even on blu ray. I never upgraded from the DVD. It’s the opposite case for 2001, of course, where you go on seeing new details forever. I don’t really care about seeing the skid marks inside the toilet when Pvt. Pyle blows Hartman away. Do some people really get 4K for every movie they buy? I mostly get things I already saw and know I’m going to watch 5 more times.
