looking up what fta means, that stuff here was either state news or russian tv. the "limited edition" poo poo when i was growing up was that one channel which would show dbz in german for a few hours 2 days per week, i think - those were the only non-soviet cartoons (that are admittedly decent) i had an option to see until i was old enough to torrent animу

hah you got dbz that rules

my anime exposure was pokemon, captain majid (Captain Tsubasa) and gobots (knock off transformers) in arabic

i would have killed for some dbz

they didnt even say how much woke netflix costs

they're trying to charge $10/month for magazines so it'd guess at least 20, plus a dtv now/playstation vue subscription and some premium channels so look, it's almost exactly the same price as a cable subscription!

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.
2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC

did we just take random terrible pitches from actors and make shows out of them

bump_fn posted:

literally yes
yep

every hollywood person has a desk drawer full of failed pitches and halfway thought out ideas. when netflix got going they went around to all the hollywood people and said "we have money. do you have any projects you want to make?" and the hollywood people blew the dust off their failed ideas and napkins scribbles and so now you have netflix's (mostly) deeply terrible lineup of original shows and adaptations

a few years later, apple comes along with its giant checkbook and gets to pick among the barrel scrapings that even netflix turned down

yeah the appletv remote is a really terrible game controller and games on only a touchscreen are pretty limited

on the other hand when a company that doesn't normally make game platforms comes up with a controller it's almost invariably trash

there are third party ios gaming devices but that's a chicken and egg problem

lol called it. Spielberg was was on stage and Abrams was on video. maybe Nolan was too.
