Waiting For That Movie

Once upon a time, you didn’t think about a movie until it reached your local theater. And that was a good thing, because they didn't play in small towns until months after the official release. Then as theaters expanded, you’d see trailers on TV a couple of weeks before the movie opened, and that was the first you heard of it. Now, we get every scrap of film development on the internet years ahead of time. And for a fan, it’s not easy to wait for the finished product.

Sadly, it also applies to TV shows, video games, and books. We get teased too much about them before we ever get a chance to try them out. -via Tastefully Offensive
