Re: Buying movies?

I stream Tubi quite a bit. Hulu with Ads. IMO the ads are getting more often and longer. Takes away the control that physical media gives, as well as the impulse viewing. I got a Steve McQueen...

Re: Amazon: Blu-ray discounts and deals mega-thread

I saw one (the second one) after seeing it being promoted for so long. Tirelessly non-stop shooting. I don't think there was a plot, just shooting and a lot.
