I gave up trying to research or involve myself with anything online until I catch up with the books - even the full names and titles of characters given in their wikipedia pages are huge spoilers.

Or could have been that it was poorly designed and just terrible to use. There are a lot of design compromises that have to be made to get that form factor in a 35mm camera, cost benefit/quality/ease of use probably just wasn't there.

Digital backs are standard in medium format cameras, but their design affords the bulky back end and display needed to make it work, rather than fitting the entire package in the space of two 35mm spools.

Nah, smoking that much weed was a part of his unadulterated character. There was a throw-away line about how him smoking so much was neutralizing all the other chemicals they were trying to get into his system.

Henchman 21: Do we have souls?
Henchman 24: Yes, but they're not quite souls, but in Earth's general idea, everything has a soul.
Henchman 21: Crap, so I guess we should become vegetarian.
Henchman 24: No, like everything living has a soul, even spinach. You can't win.
Henchman 21: So that's a problem.
Henchman 24: Here's something. You know how people cry about aborting babies because of their soul? Turns out you don't get a soul until you're like one.
Henchman 21: So, weird, one. Really?
Henchman 24: Or maybe six months. I forget. Either way, you're just this little crying, pooing monster blob until you get your soul.

Everybody knows Canadians can't violence.

Sure, middle size. Also willing to help produce/drive for anyone's LA parts.

Pretty sure that Legolas wind-up mount I thought existed was a total fabrication.

On my way to work this morning the first line from the last song popped into my head and I almost started crying.
