Film in general shouldn't be associated with the recent hipster lomofaggotry.
For me, film is about achieving a certain "look" that's very hard to capture with digital, be it B&W or Velvia. It's also about working with equipment that's a really nice change from the hectic pace of working with my AF-slamming 8FPS hunk of magnesium and digital technology. It's really nice to hold a finely crafted classic camera, focus and set exposures totally manually, and remind me that I still love photography, something that's easy to forget when shoving lights around a studio all day, or running around a racetrack or trade show with ten pounds of lenses and a huge DSLR, and then spending all night importing, shopping, and uploading dozens of shots.
