Charles Miller @carl.fish · 7hI watched Starman when I was a kid, and basically the only thing I remember about the movie is "yellow light means go faster". 130
Charles Miller @carl.fish · 21hI mean, how's that different to opera? Or something like The Planets or Pictures at an Exhibition where each section is invoking a particular image. Symphonies/concertos are definitely their own thing, but they're not the be all and end all of classical music. 110
Charles Miller @carl.fish · 02/10/2026For real though, almost every well-known orchestral work in the last fifty years was written for a movie, or more recently a video game, and we need to stop treating it as "lesser" art if we want people to keep going to see orchestras perform. 332

Charles Miller @carl.fish · 29/09/2026One thing I really liked about the 60s Day of the Jackal movie was how the creators weaponised this against the audience. Just when you started to root for the competent, cool assassin, they hit you _hard_ with how flat-out evil he was (and that you'd have to be to do that job). 291
