  1. Yes! I said the exact same thing in my LJ, although perhaps with more words. I wish I could say I told Mike so but he bade me to give him no opinion whatsoever. But I am glad you two came to the exact same conclusion as me. It gives me hope for your taste in movies. ;)

  2. I wish I’d know that for Pirates III. My family was the last ones to leave the theater, but we ended up not finishing the credits because one child had to use the facilities. Apparently, we missed something rawther important…

Blockbuster CEO Doesn’t Understand the Fascination With Netflix — ‘Equally bewildering to Mr. Keyes is the emphasis on catalog size. Why would anyone want to watch anything other than new releases, he wonders. “I don’t care how many movies are available to me. As my personal taste as a customer, I want to watch the new stuff so whether we have 10,000 movies or 200 movies doesn’t matter if I don’t want to see any of the movies that we have . . . our assortment is heavily weighted toward newer releases and mainstream staple titles.”’ And that is why I no longer go to Blockbuster, you idiot. Because I saw the new releases in the theater, thanks very much, and I like watching old stuff that I’ve never seen. You know, on this nifty archival disc format we have. (via DF)

Neuromancer — with Hayden Christiansen in the lead role, I fear for the quality of the movie. The poster makes a most excellent iPhone wallpaper, though.
