Olaf the Troll ,'Showtime'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Oh, just to be clear, I am SO THERE as well. Possibly with actual bells on. Especially if such a thing would somehow guarantee me more shirtlessness.
Also, I suspect that the above whitefont spoilerfont is probably in DC's standard contract, and thus not so much a spoiler as a major selling point. But it amuses me.
Oooh. Looks a bit like Licence to Kill, no?
Anybody else just get the "we're keeping profiles" email from Netflix? I translated it as "please, for the love of God, stop calling us: you win."
What are profiles in Netflix?
Just got my notification.
The profiles are so that you can have a subscription for, say, 3 DVDs at a time. You can assign those DVDs to different household member's profiles. So Mum can get one, Uncle Tony can get one, and you can get one.
As opposed to having one profile for the whole house where you have to keep fussing with what DVD is at the top of the queue so that Uncle Tony doesn't keep getting his Sopranos DVDs and you and Mum get frustrated trying to get Pride & Prejudice and Shoot'm Up to be delivered.

Ah, okay. Not an issue for me but I can see how doing away with them would be a pain for some.
For Rocky Horror fans, Little Nell doing "Stillettos and Lipstick" and "Do the Swim."
Goodness, she had great legs.
lisah,
some people have used netflix profiles to have queues with different genres or types of media - e.g. one profile for tv DVDs and one for films; one for scifi/fantasy and one for comedies.

I'm thrilled Netflix changed their minds, but man it caused agita in the Le Nubian household.
I used one profile for work and another for play. I still would like to have the option to delete the extra profiles though.
I just got back from The Incredible Hulk, and enjoyed it much more than I was expecting to. Norton convinced me he was Bruce Banner in a way that Eric Bana never managed, Liv Tyler surprised me by making me like her Betty Ross more than Jennifer Connolly's, and the plot was actually both coherent and entertaining. The cinematography isn't breathtaking like the Ang Lee version, but it's servicable and the CGI character design is much better, verging on being convincing in some scenes.
