the best aspect of About Time (2013) is that it constantly introduces new rules about its version of time travel that it just as frequently discards for emotionally poignant moments. no logic but emotional logic.

I've always been convinced that video podcasts exist to force creators to be reliant on a closed distribution platform. Podcasts are built on tech (RSS) that nobody can own. Every major tech company has wanted to migrate podcasts to something proprietary, but it never sticks. Video is their answer.

Does "Ms. Shipton's Travelling Tea Shop," sound good to you? It's the story of a tea witch and her cat, Misery, who break down in the English countryside.
It's the first release from a new digital audio label from my former editor and friend @fakeadamcecil.bsky.social.

Pixar designed Toy Story to be printed on physical film. The Disney renaissance movies were the same.
Today, it's hard to see them as they were meant to be seen. The versions on streaming and home media aren't quite the same films that ruled the '90s:
