SONY CAN DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT FOR NOT PLAYING. while everyone argued about disc drives, the internet actually read Sony's European Terms of Service. section 21 of the current terms - and the clause has been there for years. - go 36 months without logging in, and Sony may begin closing your account - they send one email warning. You get six months to respond - miss that email, and your entire digital library - games, DLC, purchases - becomes permanently inaccessible - "Account closure is irreversible" - direct quote from the document now do the math with what Sony announced this week: > from 2028 physical disc production for new games ends - there is no backup plan. > three years of real life - deployment, illness, a broken console - and everything you've bought over the years hangs on a single email sent to whatever address you registered in 2026. THE DISC NEVER ASKED IF YOU'D BEEN ACTIVE LATELY.

a horror movie made for $750,000 is about to become one of the most profitable films ever made. Obsession - shot in 20 days in Alabama by a 26-year-old YouTuber with no stars in the cast - is now eyeing a $250 million+ box office finish. that's a return north of 300 times its budget. it's already the highest-grossing release in Focus Features history. now look at what the industry spent that same money on: - Joker: Folie a Deux - ~$200 million budget. a punchline. - Mickey 17 - ~$118 million. forgotten in a month. - The Mandalorian & Grogu - $165 million, 7 years, the entire Lucasfilm machine. it's currently losing the weekday box office to... Obsession. Hollywood keeps insisting you need $200 million, a pre-sold IP, and a marketing budget the size of a small country to make a hit. then a guy with a camera, a wish-granting toy, and three weeks in Alabama outearned all of them on a rounding error of their catering bill. the most profitable movie of the year cost less than a single second of screen time in the average blockbuster. turns out audiences never wanted the budget. they wanted a good movie.
