A new and better FBS thread

When did people start saying "linear" TV? And does linear include cable as well as over the air or just over the air?

Ya got me on "linear" but it's the term used on a different forum that I haunt. It's both cable and OTA (see: Fox, CBS, et al).

With the streaming model, Netflix isn't enough. You also need Apple TV, Paramount, MAX, Hulu, Disney, ESPN, and probably others I can't think of right now.

Netflix has more subscribers than all the cable companied have cable subscribers... combined.

Right, again, because it costs $10/month. They are not apples to apples.

Streaming services may be the way of the future, but if the P12 goes to Netflix in 2024, the conference itself will instead be history.

If it was the B10 or SEC, sure. They could make it work and hell they may earn even more money doing so. The eyeballs will follow them because they have to due to their relevancy. The P12 is dead in the water floating towards irrelevancy, being the first conference to jump to streaming isn’t going to help them.

Drift alert: The fact that Kilmer wasn’t even nominated for that performance—and the movie itself doesn’t even crack all time lists for best western of all time is a pox upon the western motif.

I agree. And when somebody says that WYATT EARP is a better movie, a fun thing to do is ask them for a quote from it.

A quote? I couldn't remember the cast without Googling.

Dennis Quade's portrayal of Doc is also very good. Different kind of movie and a different kind of character. For what it is, it's a good movie. Problem is, it's like a lot of other movies that are similar in tone and characters. Tombstone is just too fucking awesome for what it is and Kilmer's Holiday is the most quotable, badass western antihero ever to grace the silver screen. It's just not a fair fight to even attempt to compare the two directly.... Just my $0.02.

Kilmer wins on this alone ...

I’ve tried watching it a number of times and just couldn’t finish. And who is saying it’s a better movie? I’ve never heard this once?

My low-key favorite Doc line is “Johnny, I apologize, I forgot you were there. You may go now.”

Right on the heels of the most badass Wyatt Earp moment of the whole show.
