I also have great memories of "The Big Reel," before being absorbed by
MCW.  I was very young but could not wait for the little poorly made,
folded typing like paper periodical to arrive.  You had to be quick for the
deals.  This is a foreign concept for those growing up with tech.  Hate to
live in the past, but it was such a thrill to look through the film
listings and try to beat everyone to your wants.  It took a little work,
but a very satisfying time.  You actually had to navigate times to call,
etc., and you dealt with a person instead of a keyboard. Tony
