So far the survey says that over 210 people feel film has no relevance to them whatsoever.
In contrast, just over 30 individuals find fulfillment through film.
Seems pretty conclusive that from this heavily weighted demographic (most respondents are previous film users or are very familiar with film's attributes, not "general public") that film is essentially dead to the largest possible marketing group, with only few still interested in commercially available product.
In fact, the skew of film fans seems to be heavily weighted toward "roll your own" developing and/or printing/scanning.
If the film production was nearly non-existent, as it has been for years, any small uptick will be a huge statistical percentage. But comparatively, if 20 years ago, 1000 units were being produced and purchased, and today only 2 are being produced/purchased, if the number climbs to 3.5 units that's an enormous percentage increase over 2, but catastrophic compared to 1000.
The survey is pretty clear, and the opinions of the widest number of respondents echo this. Only the energetically repeated voices of the same few seem to make the claims of increased film use stand out.
There is an undeniable remaining interest in film use, just as there are still model train associations, and Civil War re-enactors. People still love and maintain horses and stables, and even though automobiles have largely made horse travel obsolete, horseplay can still make for an interesting lifestyle -- or simply a pleasant afternoon. ...Show more →
Statistics are funny. What I am seeing is 31% of the respondents still use film in some fashion. Given this is a digital based form...that's pretty darn good. Try this same poll in a film based form like apug and see what the results will be.
Were you really expecting any other results. In reality, I'm quite amazed at the results with 31% still using film.
By the way...I found you last paragraph very derogatory.
