Ok, so let's talk about the pirated version of #StarWarsTheLastJedi that I viewed recently.

It's a Chinese rip and the most fascinating thing is that the first time you're presented with a major character, there's this small caption/explanation of who they are.

Maybe this is common in other film markets, but it blew my god damn mind.

@sonicbooming I've never seen this kind of annotation to a movie before, except as something ironic in a Tarantino movie. I like it!

@nelson @ThisQueerBashesBack I know right!! It's amazing! I feel like if I had some capital and was smart enough that this would be something to look at actually exploring. But that is WAAAY out of my league.

The reaction I'm getting just in this instance demonstrates how cool and helpful that technology would be. We're likely a ways off from it happening, but it's fascinating to ponder.
