The one redeeming factor was San Francisco Rush 2049. Redeem tickets to get poorly made prizes, try to get some kind of ball in some kind of hole and listen to inane sound effects that are better suited for a drunken Dumbo’s hallucination. Half the floor was filled with attractions that belonged at a carnival instead of a traditional video game arcade. I would give an “A” for effort, but it was too depressing. Stuck in hospice mode, our local theater tried to pay homage to Johnny Zee’s death (press F to pay respects) by having their own, smaller version. It’s a shame, but you can’t stop progress. You’ll still find a few bastions here and there, but smaller motherboards and massive increases in console processing power negated the need for overly large cabinets. Innovation always has victims and sadly, arcades are one of them.

More than just a documentary about the Beatles, Get Back is more importantly a film about the process of artistic expression and collaboration that also offers a detailed reconsideration of the official myths and legends about the final days of the band. The Beatles: Get Back draws from the raw material collected in 1969 by director Michael Lindsay-Hogg for his 1970 documentary Let It Be. Writer and podcaster Rob Rousseau joins me from Montreal to discuss Peter Jackson’s new epic-length documentary about those four mop-topped Lads from Liverpool.
