POINT BREAK 1991 Dir. Kathryn Bigelow

If I drive for you, you get your money. You tell me where we start, where we're going, where we're going afterwards. I give you five minutes when you get there. Anything happens in that five minutes, and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything a minute on either side of that and you're on your own. I don't sit in while you're running it down. I don't carry a gun. I drive.

— DRIVE (2011) dir. Nicolas Winding Refn

The Shining (1980) dir. Stanley Kubrick

Remember how LiveJournal let you have several icons (or avatars or "pfps" as you might call them now)? And you'd carefully choose an icon to fit the subject matter, your tone, and the blog on which you were commenting or posting?

And it could make your argument look that much snarkier if you used a rude one? Or you could use it to add a multiplier to a joke?

And icons, alongside banners and wallpapers, were a whole genre of fanwork with its own design language, conventions, and norms, including carefully crediting people for them?

That was neat.
