How We Got to Now was a 2014 PBS series with science writer Steven Johnson. Its 6 episodes had the themes clean, cold, light, time, sound, and glass. The one on cold showed how the very first use of air conditioning (subsequently identified in Time’s century-rollover edition as the 6th most important invention of the 20th Century) was for movie theaters.

“And damn that the air conditioner was broken too. We’d have left if Monty hadn’t complained about wasting paid-for movie tickets.”

The movie studios release their Summer dregs during the Dog Days of August.

With all the sequels out there, is Free Willy 6 so surprising in real life?

They should just move from movie to movie.

So the Free Willy fan was not a fan of his fan, that’s fantastic.

I’d imagine there were more choices at the multiplex than just Free Willy 6, but maybe they went for a random choice. Serves you right, Monty….
