I got an ad for a screening of Blade Runner but with a live orchestra? And that's like the one movie where I *wouldn't* want a live orchestra, you can't watch blade runner without Vangelis' synth score
I've been listening to the Brent Spiner/Jonathan Frakes podcast and Ted Danson's podcast and, as a gen-x kid who grew up watching those guys, they have a nice gentle energy; it's kind of a parasocial hang where you get to listen to your cool tv uncles just reflect and shoot the shit with people (who a lot of the time are their friends or at least long time acquaintances)
I'm still grappling with how old all those guys are though
