Mini Movie Theater

In the last week or so I’ve done something twice that I never thought I’d do: watch full-length movies in streaming video over the internet. It’s either been the quality of the video or the speed of my connection or something that made it not worth my while. Also, what retard sits in front of his computer monitor in order to watch TV for two hours at a pop? I know it’s the big thing to turn your PC into a DVR, but that doesn’t make it any less retarded. And don’t get me started on dumb shit like Slingbox and AppleTV. Like my TV itself doesn’t have enough worthless bullshit on it to watch so I have to supplement it with more worthless bullshit to watch from the internet.

Anyway, it’s gotten to a point now where that might be changing. I guess that’s progress. Even if one of the movies I watched forced me to download Microsoft Silverlight when Abobe Flash player is already out there doing the same thing. But what can you do. It’s still a Microsoft world.
