Sadly, I just saw The Shining for the first time last weekend.

Nor have I.
At least I've seen The Godfather now.

Stanley Kubrick is genius. But he can be an acquired taste. I think The Shining has some pretty strange and creepy moments. Some audiences laughed at the "scary"parts.

I bet most people have not seen Barry Lyndon, which I have.

At least I've seen The Godfather now. I haven't seen either. I'm a horrible person.

I liked Barry Lyndon. Maybe my favorite Kubrick film.

As for batteries... I have two comments:
Portable music:
Then: Boombox with 8 Alkaline D-cells
Now: Player of choice with an internal rechargeable Li-gel battery.
ENG video cameras:
Then: battery belt of lead acid batteries that make you look like you're diving for sunken treasure.
Now: Lithium ion or Lithium polymer battery pack on the back of the camera.
Bren R. Car Batteries Then: Heavy lead acid ~1.5 cubic feet Now: Heavy lead acid ~1.5 cubic feet Seriously thou, I'm just eternally disappointed in battery tech. There has been so much effort put into researching how to make them better and while there have been improvements they are all just minor improvements from what was previous. I demand a compact battery to power my smartphone for day s and something half as large and heavy as what we see in current electric cars (Telsa, Volt, Leaf, etc) that can power the vehicle for at least 3 times as long.
