I'm pretty sure you can stream it from Amazon on your computer without prime membership. Or rent it from Google Play and play it on your computer. You only have 48hs to watch it once you start streaming it though: [link]
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!
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.

iTunes might also have it. You could check WhereToWatch.com to find out which sites have it available to rent or buy.

Unless your computer is too old?
Ooo, must research. I bought this computer three weeks ago, it's a Win10, it should be fine.
And I will ogle any bit of Renner I can get my eyeballs on. I even actually bought "Hansel and Gretel" for the skinny dipping scene. That movie gets a lot of fast forwarding.
(With video tape you could just rewind it to the place you wanted to watch and leave it there)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I think you're fine on your computer. They probably emphasize streaming devices because they assume that people consider their computer to be the default device.

I'm starting to feel like Old Man Simpson: "Old man yells at [online] Cloud!"

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Connie, just go to Amazon Movies and search for Ghost Protocol, you should be able to rent it in HD for $3.99. You have 30 days to start watching and 48 hours to finish it once started.

Thank you! I have a Friday evening of cold diet Coke and pizza and ass-and-arm ogling ahead!

In an unrelated news, Matt Damon is... saving China from monsters during the building of The Great Wall 1,000 years ago? THE HELL? [link]
It's directed by Zhang Yimou of the Raise the Red Lantern, Hero, House of Flying Daggers-fame, and looks like half the cast are Chinese. So presumably not a Gods of Egypt type fiasco or What All These People Need Is A Honkey narrative. Still. Matt Damon in that outfit! I think they're going for Epic but it mostly looks silly? Given that it's Zhang Yimou, it'll at least look gorgeous.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Movie tie-in question: Can any Buffista who spots the key lime slime twinkies in the wild contact me about the possibility of picking up a box or two and shipping to me? Fully reimbursed, of course. In their infinite wisdom, the nice people at Hostess apparently decided they didn't want to sell to SoCal, or at least not to San Diego. They're on eBay, but none for non-exorbitant prices (or reasonable prices with usurious shipping costs). I really want to try them (and the boy that I currently like is also a big fan of lime - one of the things we've bonded over - and is currently very bitter over the fact that food manufacturers seem to neglect us as a viable market [see also: Lay's special contest flavors] so I'd love to share some with him).
Ta ever so!
