Films Are No Longer Cultural Events

Uploaded on Wednesday 9 July 2014

DESCRIPTION

We love films, and we also loves sites like Film Annex that promote films and filmmakers over the new mediums of the internet and online streaming. But what about traditional film? Thanks to rapid release cycles and an intense focus on opening weekend, has Hollywood turned its films in to disposable pass times as opposed to cultural events as films have been in the past? Steve and Ben discuss the state of films in to today’s connected age. The guys also discuss James Franco and Seth Rogen's new Kim Jong-un assassination film 'The Interview' slammed by North Korean spokesman, Time travel has been simulated by Australian physicists, Will the Supreme Court ever figure out technology?
