Not just Netflix. Everything sucks. The ps3 needed a syatem update, so after an hour of doing that shit I had to reestablish the internet connection, login info, etc... Once finished, trying to go into the netflix app to watch The Babysitter froze my PS3. Netflix refused to load. Needed a software update. So I had to delete netflix from my ps3 and redownload the software from the playstation store. The playstation store also needed an update, so I had to delete playstation store from my actual playstation and redownload it. Once there, I had to reestablish my PSN account to the playstation store and search through apps to find and download and install netflix again. Updates are needed after the successful download of netflix. Currently waiting on netflix update to install itself to my PS3 again. Once all is said and done, I will then have the option to watch Babysitter (hopefully), but even if everything is successful, I still have to rely on 3rd, 4th, and 5th parties to ensure that viewing the movie is actually a possible thing. I have to rely on my playstation to maintain the updated software, I have to rely on the internet to not cut out, and I have to rely on netflix's streaming quality to not be total shit... which is generally not the case.

So much easier than pulling out DVD and placing in DVD player.

Stream quality is absolute garbage, at the moment. I'm leaving it paused to see if it can fix itself.

Hey, D. Did your Shelly shirt ship yet? All I got was an order-confirmed email. Sitting here twiddling my thumbs, hoping it arrives before the next Friday the 13th.

This movie strikes me as being similar to Carrie, which is somewhat fueled on by the fact the main actress played Carrie in the 2002 re-adaptation.

No such luck. She's just one of those hyper-organized, "don't tear the packaging to the birthday present" type of bitchy mothers.

I'm sure zombie could word it better, as he worships the movie. :P

I would hope that May would have more sympathy for animals than she's displaying, you know, cause she works at an animal hospital. :P

Saw Leprechaun 4: In Space earlier, along with Leprechaun: Origins.

As bad as In Space was, god, Origins was absolutely hideous.

Hope that someone has explained to May that is NOT how you do the hanky-panky. :P

I'm under the impression they still need to print, but no, hasn't shipped yet. I wasn't expecting to see it until sometime next week.

Watching this Fright Night documentary on Amazon/Shudder. I know it probably doesn't count for the challenge (as I don't remember documentaries counting) but I wanna watch it anyway. Could warm up right into Fright Night (1985) right after

I can't tell if this is Roddy, or one hell of an impersonator that's opening this. Because as I recall he's been dead for a while. Close ups make me think impersonator, but there is a "cable" filter for this "Peter Vincent" hosting the documentary.
