I'm in the habit of waiting until a movie comes out on DVD. I like watching stuff in my theater, in my living room.


Me too. Netflix rocks!

Oh, I feel ashamed. I have a Netflix and FilmCaddy account.

FilmCaddy


Never heard of that one. Are they as good as Netflix? I live relatively close to where they get returned so I manage to get three new ones every week.

FilmCaddy is OK. You have to return them to Arizona. You get 4 instead of 3. Of course, being in Arizona, it takes longer. I'll probably drop them once my queue is empty. ONLY 100 to go.

I have a local Netflix hub here in Austin, so I get them a day earlier than they say.

I've always just bought DVDs, so I've never thought about those rental programs. How does that work?

How does that work?

If you have a credit card, you can try it out free for 10 days, I believe.

I'll have to look into that.

Netflix: http://www.netflix.com Link
FilmCaddy: http://www.filmcaddy.com Link

Netflix lets you have 3 movies checked out at one time and Filmcaddy lets you have 4 out at a time.

When you are finished watching a movie, return it in the postage paid envelope and when they receive it, they will send you the next movie on your list.

No late fees, just the monthly flat fee. If you can watch the movies quickly it comes to something like $2 a movie.

I have been in Netflix for about three years now. They are great. They have provisions in case something gets lost (happened once) and even if you want to buy one. The fee just gets deducted every month. We usually have three new movies every weekend for $20 a month.

Since when do the Guardians discuss DVDs on the Diplomats thread???
We really don't say much on here do we?

Aaaah but that is the way a great empire should be. We need do little ourselves as we have others to do it for us   Like keeping this thread at the forefront of the forum

That sounds like a lifestyle. Good one too.

Man, I finally caught up. Well...I must say why not have an evil person saying 'The end doesn't justify the means'?

Shouldn't an evil person being saying the opposite? That the end DOES justify means? (Unfortunately, this seems to be too often true! )

Hey, XgEvangelist, feel free to jump into any conversation over in the Diplomats forum. You have access, right? We are over there more than anywhere else, and we are working on ideas right now for the empire. Why don't you come over and jump in? We'll be happy to welcome in new ideas. Come over to the Embassy, in the Diplomat private section.

No! No! Our MoC! You can't have turned toward the light! You alone are able to maintain the balance of our empire!

I'm not saying anything

I was just asking...I am anything but near light. Remember, after all, I am the most feared assassin the Metaverse has ever known. I dare not run from my roots. There will be no light in me.

I am the only force of evil in our Empire, and I mighty force at that. I alone bring balance and I alone can unbalance it.

You would think Evil that strong wouldn't need any help.
