"film" is an annoying term for the movie industry. I say this because film as a medium is outdated and must be BURNED. The small credit card sized blocks of thousands of tiny adjustable mirrors is a far superior system for instance. It would work digitally, and would provide a sharp image on a gigatic screen with no artifacts, and NO BREAKING JUST WHEN THE MOVIE REACHES THE END. I hate the term film because I hate the medium of film. Arbitrary and stupid yes, but I like it too :D.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
