Just think about all the classic film noirs from the 40s and 50s.
Got a tip for us?

She starred Fargo (also a film from the Coen Brothers), she was the protagonist and did an amazing job.
I join the other comments about going black and white not being very appealing, there are so many artistic choices to stand out this age and that is an odd one.

I’ve got Apple one maxed out and find it very worthy of the price! Lots of cool stuff to watch and magazines to read! Not to mention an occasional arcade game! Also iCloud storage out the wazoo😂
That’s cool. I really wish Apple would have picked up A24’s The Green Knight (I’ll blind buy TGK when it’s released on iTunes.) I would have joined Apple TV for that.
You struggle to find things to keep you interested on Youtube? You’re just pretending to disagree now. You have no interests in life? Someone who is into cars for example can watch car channels for days.. good ones. Even ones that are specific to their favorite car.
Do you own a home? Do you know how much great amazing content I have learned just from watching a few channels ? It has literally saved me thousands.
Not to mention all the old great TV shows that people upload, I have watched some of my favorite things on TV from back in the day on good old YouTube.
Are you into gaming? There are so many great gaming channels. I’m not trying to be rude, but maybe you’re just not creative and need Apple to think for you? I dunno maybe YouTube is too much effort for some.
Denzel? Along with Tom Hanks, Apple's programming strategy continues... "Let's find some actors that were huge in the 80's and produce some new bland content with them." This IS your father's streaming service.
I think I remember Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow being originally filmed in black and white, but had to be reshot in color because theaters would not show a black and white movie? I did see it eventually, but it seemed kinda watered down in color. I'd rather have seen it in black and white as intended.
I don’t use YouTube for entertainment. Just for the occasional how to video. Other than that I don’t use it much. It’s possible that some of us just have no reason to use it. Simple as that.
For native English speakers, it's obvious. For non-native English speakers it may not be so obvious.
That's all. Cheers.
I don't buy or sup to anything that can't offer decent storytelling because everything they do is all down one side of the aisle.
Not for me. It's a gain because I spend less time vegging out in front of vacuous programming.
Oh my God, that's a boring list. Really, Samuel L. Jackson? I have to listen to his yelling again? And Hillary and Chelsea Clinton? I have to listen to those chickens yelling again? Stop the madness and please come up with a better list. And if I see Scarlett Johanssen doing her mouth thing one more time, I just may vomit! It's like she's checking for broccoli bits with her lips closed, thinking we can't see that going on!
I got nauseous halfway through that list. And THEN I nodded off during the 2nd half!
You made some great suggestions here. I've learned how to disassemble and clean my dryer, sanitize my coffeemaker, clean my fountain pens, unclog my toilet (it wasn't the kind of clog you're thinking of, really), make real effective use of Excel in my job, and much much more.
First Apple reduced the number of ports on MacBooks, now they’re reducing the number of Cohens. What next?
Wow. That is a lot of content. The 66 new shows especially is a very big deal! 27 feature films is significant but considering the quality of their productions they will be a force to watch closely sooner rather than later. There will be a run away hit in this catalog I’m sure and the tide will shift.
This is a list of announced shows and movies. None of these are out yet. Many haven’t started production yet.
Interesting. You say that like everybody watches television and there's simply no other option; no other path except for the only one that you know.
But there ARE other choices available, I assure you that this is true.
It's all within your power, and your power only. You would need to start questioning your choices, then you would need to make a decision to leave behind the toxic, and finally to have the fortitude of will to act on it. Do those things and you could break out of your mental prison too. Set yourself free with the possibilities in your life that are still as yet before you!
Not at all. I use iPhones, iPads, apple watches, and am looking forward to buying M1 versions of iPad Pro and MacBook Pro later this year; the former because I want to upgrade and the latter because I want to learn to make apps for the ecosystem!
How is that "Apple Hate"? There sure is lots of prejudging going on these days.
And I can also see clearly when something is nothing more than Hollywood pedantics, pap, and political motivations, regardless of who's providing the stream. I do wonder whether or not people who can't see outside of their own television viewing habits are just trying to end the dissent by shaming or shutting down the dissenter.
And seriously...Seth Rogan? Uma Thurman? Opra Winfrey biography, in two parts, no less?
Puh-lease. All this stuff is already available somewhere on an already-free or mostly-free streaming service, You-Tube, or Wikipedia. Hollywood COULD do better, don'tcha think?
Despite my earlier comment being in jest, I actually am interested to know whether this will in fact come out in Dolby Vision. With maybe two exceptions, everything I’ve watched in black and white has been older movies and tv. I imagine black and white could still benefit from the darker blacks and brighter highlights HDR has to offer.
You're right, there are interesting things on YouTube but again, using my Apple TV, the commercials ruin any time I try to get back into channels. Same reason I don't like Hulu.
