Loved it! So far this is the only Hugo nominated that impressed me (and no surprise that it's a Pratt--his writing seems to be ideal for my tastes, the worst of his stories were still well above average and the best are just fantastic).
As a mediaphile I could totally relate to this guy. My tastes tend to spread out more across different types of media, including books, movies, and video games, but I can totally see it. Now the story's made me a little bit sad that I can't see all those movies!!! Especially Selleck as Indy and the rendition of Ender's Game.
I like how the alternate universe had very little changes but all the money and technology were so divergent. There is no "right" way to format a movie, there just has to be some standard, it doesn't matter that much what the standard is. So tiny differences in history could really throw everything off.
I was rather angry when he just seemed to decide he wasn't going to see her again--I was silently shouting "what the hell are you doing?! all you have to do is be in the story when the flip happens!"
And a quibble that didn't really diminish my enjoyment: They're missing out on mucho opportunity by not taking any movies across from her world. Sure, you can't play them NOW, but that doesn't mean that they'll be unusable FOREVER. Take a DVD player, a sack of your favorite movies across and hire someone to reverse engineer the DVD player for you and then alter it to deal with current voltages and video formats. Then rip to a standard DVD. Sure, the reverse engineering would be expensive, but just think about what you could do with those DVDs once converted! You could make millions and never have to live off peanut butter again!! OK, so you probably couldn't sell them in any legitimate way--I'm not exactly sure what copyright law would do in this circumstance. They wouldn't protect video which had never been recorded in this universe, but any movie that had too similar a script to a released movie would get in trouble. But the later works of Orson Welles, for instance, you could probably get away with. But... It's probably just as well Pratt didn't go there. It would've been a huge divergence. But it's what I would've done.
