I pay for a hulu sub and it's well worth it because at any given time no matter where I'm at I can watch Kill! or any number of dope movies that are on hulu thanks to the criterion collection.

why would you want to pay idiot tax of not being able to x, y, z with poo poo you torrented

It's more of a convenience tax. If I want to watch say, any given zatoichi movie, it's a lot quicker and ever so slightly easier to just pull it up on hulu than torrent it.

i mean seriously who doesn't like watching samurai swordfight while some reeds wave in the wind and poo poo and the sun is setting then like one of them blinds the other by reflecting the sun with his sword and SLINK he loving chops the other dudes head off.

IFC used to have Samurai Saturdays where they'd show like 3 good movies in a row every Saturday morning. That poo poo was like Saturday morning cartoons for grown ups, it was awesome.

I remember that. But just think man now, with the magic of hulu, every day can be that day potentially. Now that's progress if I've ever seen it.
