Last weekend I went with my brother to the cinema to see the Terminator 2 3D re-release, because the only movies I care about are the ones I liked when I was a teenager and can equate it to a time when life’s relentless, ghastly struggle hadn’t yet destroyed all the optimism and vague concepts of pleasure that once trickled through my young veins, and I reject any new movies because they implicitly suggest younger people are getting enjoyment that is no longer available to me
Before the movie there was a trailer for the inevitably horrible Justice League movie. A trailer that was itself preceded by a trailer for the trailer itself!!!

Because you kind of let the rat out of the bag with that T2 anecdote. That was a fucking brilliant story by the way, I hope you’ve got more where that came from- Ed> but considering the quality of ‘Prelude’ it may well be so good that all art registered immediately null and void
