I don't know if it has already been mentioned (I didn't found it with a quick look on the posts), but in Ironman 2 Tony Stark is watching a film of his father presenting the Stark Expo with a Kodak Pageant 16mm projector

I know this is a family-friendly site...so this projector-spotting addition will be handled discretely [Smile]

Starting around season 1 episode 8 of the Showtime series Masters of Sex, film becomes an intergral part of the plot. If you have ever watched any of this series you'll understand why these are carefully chosen screen caps ... and if you haven't seen it...well...Doesn't everybody watch films in their bathrobes? [Wink]

BTW....cute little circa 1950's 8mm projector [Cool]

I didn't see the series, but I presumed "Masters of Sax" was about saxophone prodigies.

LOL...Your browser must be censoring the text Martin [Smile]

. Replace the "a" in "sax" with an "e" [Smile]

...and see if that makes it a little clearer. Of course if you haven't seen the series...it still might not make any since [Roll Eyes]

I'm currently looking through all episodes of The Persuaders for the umpteenth time, and in the episode Angie...Angie the story unfolds during the Cannes Film Festival. One of the action pieces of this episode acctually takes place in a projection booth.

Wow, that looks more like scans than screenshots. Awesome colors (do you have any faded ones at all?) ;-) Always great colors on your prints it seems. Thanks for sharing

The French national channel France 2 broadcasted tonight a live play (with the French actor Gérard Jugnot). There was a cine projector displayed on a wall. It was not very visible but was there.

Watched Sinister (2012 Movie) only the other evening and that was a fascinating watch given that it was all based around an attic find of 8mm Movie film and equipment that as the the title suggests, all had a very sinister background.. very spooky supernatural horror film and quite a good watch indeed!

Yes, SINISTER is a pretty good horror movie with Ethan Hawke, who has made some interesting films. The film and projector is clearly Std 8, or Regular 8 but when the character looks up how to repair the film he looks up Super 8 film. Perhaps this is to show the character isn't familiar with film, anyway, he manages to splice the films okay...

Andrew and Steven I had posted these screen shots from Sinister last year (page 16). I liked the suspense in this movie, but was disappointed in the ending. However the use of film and the old projector kept the movie interesting.

Thanks, that's interesting. It has just been on British TV so this is why it has been topical again. Good film. I liked how Ethan Hawke burned the projector and film but they just reappeared in perfect order. They made stuff to last in those days!

I am unsure of what the movie is called, and this footage is dubbed but we can see a Cinemec LX1600 35mm portable in use.
