Your tech talk avoids the point man. I like your movies but I also like T hall, off skis he is fuckn annoying, and so is your self rightous tone you film snob. I don't have to make films to know what I like, in fact the consumers opinion, not the filmakers, makes the $$$. My opinion is it's time for a change and filming is headed in that direction. True, they still shoot in super 16 (i.e.mack dawg picture this)

but they use an HD transfer, and any kid that buys that shit regardless of their tv or dvd player is going to notice the crystal clear depth and clarity. My opinion is the reality of newschool riding along with good editing and music portrayed in an HD transfer dominates the look of 16 mm. You can disagree, but it doesn't change the fact that everyone is going to start using it and people love it.
