And they’re already being sued.
Honestly, I was frakkin’ surprised not reading them already being sued in the article I linked. Still, I’m on their waiting list now. But, I doubt they’ll “win” against the MPAA. And, I wonder whether the MPAA will go after their customers proclaiming DCMA violations… ): That’s a scary and not so incredible thought.
Wouldn’t be an issue if Netflix offered subtitle options on all of their titles…
Utah news reports that collecting/using rainwater is ILLEGAL

Huh? What? Wait…

Not so fast. There’s offline caselaw almost directly on point. It’s not so good for Zediva. In Columbia Pictures Industries v. Redd Horne, for example, the defendant was a video store named Maxwell’s. It rented videotapes to customers, along with private 4’x6’ exhibition booths in the rear of the store. You’d rent a tape and reserve a room, buy some popcorn, and go take a seat in the booth. ($5.00, plus $1.00 for each additional person.) Then, a Maxwell’s employee would put the tape in a VCR connected to your booth, hit play, and the movie would show up on the TV in your booth.
The court in Redd Horne had no difficulty finding that this was a public performance that the movie-studio copyright owners had every right to prohibit …
Not looking good…
well, that would mean I could do that because when we bought our house here in Utah, we got water rights with the property. Yea win!
The Hobbit is going to be shot at a higher frame rate which is the ossim! The downside is most theaters will not be able to show it at said frame rate… But it will most likely be released on DVD at the higher frame rate, for more info read the article at the link-

Brandon Lee will always be in my mind with this franchise
I’m of the mind that any movie where the main star dies during the making of a movie, that movie shouldn’t be remade. They should let the franchise/character rest in piece.
Exceptions would be characters like the Joker who’s mythos is interwoven into the story. But, the Joker (despite Ledger’s movie stealing performance) isn’t the main character in that story.
Bond, I’m enh about.
I know it was supposed to be unexpected, but I so saw what Hanna did coming.
I was also waiting for it. Looks cool though. During WonderCon the director said that Hanna would be the Anti-Sucker Punch.
Nine part webseries is about to reach into your chest and rip out your still beating heart…and stuff.

Question: How will TOS be in HD??
Just click “enhance” a few times.
More seriously, the originals were recorded to some analog medium (Not in the business so don’t know. I assume Xmm film, where X is a reasonably small positive integer) so couldn’t they generate an HD quality file from there?
More cynically, a 1920x1080 single-color square is technically HD
