Writer-producer-director, Robert Meyer Burnett, reacts to recent articles talking about the importance of image quality in pop media. Is it a meta-commentary on what our culture values (looks over intent) or is it a practical concern that as technology improves and media degrades, restoration (and enhancement) are required?

When is it okay to modify the original work (e.g. remove the visible wires from the invading Martians in George Pall's 50's epic, WAR OF THE WORDS) and when does it go too far (e.g. colorizing CASABLANCA)? Rob talks about these issues, production implications fore the future movie makers and more.

Plus, there are the usual letters and questions from fans in the live stream - making this a very-busy-but-not-so-horriblly-bad-epsiode of ROBSERVATIONS.
