    I love that this is one of the first movies that get converted to knew technology (like blueray, etc) when it comes out. It’s always great watching again every decade or so in higher and higher fidelity :D

    The amount of practical effects used to make this is always impressive, especially compared to today’s green screens. I was amazed to see that they made a scale section of future NYC for scenes. And all the costumes? So varied, imaginative, and amazing. One of my favorites for sure

      I’ve never been quite sure. The movie industry works with YT to remove uploads they don’t want and restrict others in some places, according to (contracts? laws? whims?) That’s about all I know.
