Weird how the piece invokes dueling premise movies (like Armageddon/Deep Impact) and movies with public domain titles (like anything Amityville) — two things which are totally unlike this Road House situation — while ignoring the one actual cinematic equivalent: Sean Connery in Never Say Never Again

The impetus for writing it? Bursting the myth that porn fueled VHS's win over betamax. It also didn't play into Blu-Ray's win over HD-DVD. And since writing that piece in 2015, sex/porn couldn't help keep 3D TVs a viable home tech, nor has it really helped push VR into more homes.
