2. This is a great idea , thank you
Often times I don't feel like surfing boards or chatting on line..I prefer watching a great movie. I have one
special one for Asian movies and Drama, but its a by invitation only website..and I was lucky to get in on it.
I wish there were more, cause I know I am missing out on some great Japanese and Korean films. I love them..
especially the ones that make me get all weepy..

5. I discovered by accident that there are movies you can watch on youtube.
unedited, as well, but I haven't tried it lately, and don't know how to do it

I imagine it can't be that hard to figure out

7. btw, no commercials or other stuff encumbering the show, either. like this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=tvRrKtPYNV0

Fast Sofa

not for everyone, that's for sure, but if you like Crispin Glover, well....

there is a 27 second commercial, actually, at the beginning

I just googled Fast Sofa youtube, and it came right up

guess you can try that with any movie, and if it's available, you should be able to get it there

8. I watched The Testament of Dr. Mabuse on YouTube the other night.
It was cut into 10-minute pieces, but I didn't mind. I've seen it a few times and love it anyway :D

6. Here's another one: Public Domain Torrents
http://www.publicdomaintorrents.com

Where else are you going to see such "classics" as Hercules Against the Moonmen, Mesa of Lost Women, The Killer Shrews, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, I Bury the Living, and so much more!

There are some good movies there, if you're willing to sift through it all :D

19. Where do y'all find those etiquette and other "educational" films?
I always wondered where MST:3K found them, too. Some really brilliant comments and reactions were had with them :D

16. I have to admit since I got NetFlix last summer I don't watch the sites like Hulu anymore.
For $10.95 a month I get 3 Blu-ray dvds a week in the mail and I have thousands of hours of movies and documentaries and tv series available and they look good even on my 50' plasma. I can watch a tv series one episode after another as well as some relatively new movies, all without commercials. Best $10.95 a month I ever spent and I have no cable or satellite tv, getting all my channels over the air.
