Film Is DEAD

Posted by marantzman on October 18, 2005 at 19:35:42:
No one seems to post here, so I'm sending up this little troll post.
Film Is Dead! One of my instructors said it in art school way back in '93 or so and I thought it was a stupid thing to say. Now it's true. Film is dead. Kodak has stopped manufacturing B&W papers and the end must be near for Kodachrome and Tri-X. It makes me sad in many ways...but I haven't actually used those films for several years.
Digital is easier, faster, and cleaner. And now...for the most part... the quality is AS good as film.
But we're losing something.
RIP film. We hardly knew ye...
