Past, Present and Future

[--Pete]

Hi,

Pete can you stream Nextflix? I can now with my new OS Windows 7 & Windows Media Center, a free setup.

I can, but I don't use my computer. With TiVo, I can stream Netflix directly to the TV. The only times I've used my computer for this is if I'm previewing something while watching something else.

Do you put your Netflix return envolpe in your mail box or do you take it to the postoffice?

Magi works in a building that has a post office in it. She puts it in the mail there. They get it the next day and we get the new one the day after.

I don't recall the "shaky carmera" which is a handheld camera that can be is a bit much when over done, some movies are now made entirely with a handheld which can give you motion sickness.

Ah, thanks for the terminology. They only used it for some shots, so it didn't really hurt the film. It just happens to be on my list of "things done too often or poorly" along with fast cuts, starting in medias res, long chases of any kind, overblown sound and visual effects, and background music that doesn't stay in the background. Oh, and the Marlon Brando school of mumbling.
