Netflix (NFLX): A new world for video
2009-03-16 05:00:00 "There are always stocks that can buck the trend and go up when most others are going down; one such issue is Netflix (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/quote.htm?sym=nflx) (NASDAQ: NFLX (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/quote.htm?sym=nflx))," says Sean Broderick (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2952),In- Money and Markets (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2952), he explains, "Netflix has exceptional growth prospects as it ventures into streaming movies and games over the Internet." Here's the advisor's review."Netflix is doing bang-up business, and if history is any guide, should continue to do so. During the Great Depression, movies were one of the few growth industries, as a weary world turned to escapist entertainment."Netflix had an excellent recent quarter. Revenues jumped 19% and earnings rose 58%. EBITA, a widely used measure of a company's efficiency and profitability, hit a six-year high, and was up 18% over the year earlier."...

For now, Netflix will have to wait.

Netflix Questions

Is Blockbuster better than Netflix? Please feel free to leave your thoughts and opinions in the comments section.Thank you!

Netflix Review In A Minute: Thank You for Smoking
2008-06-06 20:41:00 Let me first take a completely vain and shallow moment by saying; Aaron Eckhart? Yum. He's one of those hot but not too hot/unattainable men. Now I'm even more motivated to see The Dark Knight, if that were even possible, as he plays Harvey "Future TwoFace" Dent. Yum.OK, back to the movie. I liked it. I thought it was a cute movie. I really feel it should be labeled a horror/comedy a la Shaun of the Dead, for while it was funny, it was eerie to see how suave a lobbyist can be. Eerie to realize that while this may be fiction, lobbyists no doubt actually view their work this way: trying to bring together to very opposing forces onto one agreeable platform (with blatant disregard to death).Katie Holmes unfortunately shows up to play a slutty, manipulative writer. Fortunately she's not given many lines, so she doesn't fuck up the movie too bad. Her character also gets what's coming to her for being such a shitty writer.This movie is packed with top notch actors: Rob Lowe, Adam Brod...
Netflix Review In A Minute: The Queen
2008-06-05 18:54:00 Wow. What an amazing movie. In my mind, seeing this film was like the witnessing Miranda and Carrie having a spat while shopping for vintage clothes in Sex and the City. You know the dialogue exists, but only now, do we finally get to hear what they were thinking about one another. As is the case with the Royal Family in The Queen.You can read all the tabloids you want, all the biographies of biographies of speculations, but it was nice to see a film try and show the war between tradition and modernizing and between God and ethics with pieces of stories and facts from multiple sources...not just one biased side.Helen Mirrin did a fantastic job as the Queen of England. I should hope so since she won the Oscar for Best Actress in this role. Mirrin's Queen was one of poise and great tradition. Her plight in this film was attempting to stay afloat after the news of Princess Diana's death. Her belief was that, the monarchy has stood the test of time and no matter what comes and goes in...

Netflix Review In A Minute: The Number 23
2008-06-02 16:44:00 Jim Carrey plays Walter Sparrow, an animal control worker who's wife gives me a book called The Number 23, written by Topsy Ekkrets (aka Top Secrets). The book follows a detective by the name of "Fingerling", as he solves crimes and has violent sex with a luscious Italian woman. Walter begins to realize that the book almost parallels his life but there are some holes that don't match up. Then the book lays down the idea of the 23 Enigma: that everything in the world, can somehow be traced back to the number 23. Walter goes crazy trying to figure out who wrote the book in hopes it will stop his obsession with the number.The movie is a thriller, so I wasn't really scary. In fact most of the interesting or thrilling moments happen in the book. In the real world, Walter is very plain and somewhat boring up until the last 10 minutes of the movie. I liked Carrey in this. People always harp on him acting in serious acting roles, and ever since The Truman Show, I knew he had the ability ...
Netflix Review In A Minute: The Fountain
2008-06-01 22:15:00 I have no idea what the hell I just watched. I remember way back in the day, when Brad Pitt was attached to this film. I guess he pulled out and years later Hugh Jackman picked up the role. I sympathize with Pitt as this film is a piece of hot mess crap.We're led to believe that Tom and Izzy's love spans a millennium in three different time periods. OK. I can kind of get on board with that. But then you learn that Izzy is writing a book and that the Spanish Conquistador storyline is part of her book. So...then are we not supposed to think that in another life these characters were together? That it's just Izzy's creation? Or does Izzy know that in another life they were lovers. The presence of Izzy's book just confuses everything.I guess the main point of the movie is to teach Hugh about accepting life and death as an inevitability. Unfortunately the film seems more focused on looking cool than actually making sense. You jump through time to different versions of the characters...

Streaming Netflix Movies to TV
2008-05-27 16:44:00 Last week online movie rental giant Netflix announced that their subscribers can now purchase a $100 set top box, manufactured by Roku which allows them to stream movies directly to their television. Last year Netflix took the first step in moving from mail delivery only when they introduced their Watch Now feature which allowed users to stream movies to their PC. However, the ability to stream movies to television will probably capture the attention of a broader audience.The Roku set top box provides the necessary connection to the internet via wired or wireless-G network connectivity. The device has HDMI, component, composite, and S-video outputs. Netflix customers initially have 10,000 titles available for streaming and can easily select them from their queue. For those who rent movies online via Netflix, the other good news is that the streaming service costs nothing. Once the set top box is purchased there are no additional fees beyond their typical subscriptio...

Netflix Review In A Minute: Fat Actress
2008-05-25 19:30:00 I may hate Scientology and it's cult members, but I really liked Fat Actress...and it's entire one and only season before it got the axe. I seem to be on a real self deprecating high, because I love the concept of the show: Kirstie plays a mock of herself as a fat actress trying to get back on television. It's kind of like The Comeback, but not a documentary. In fact, I think those two shows aired roughly around the same dates.The main arch of the seven episode season is Kirstie attempting to lose weight so she can fuck Kid Rock. I love the obscurity of picking Kid Rock. I'd understand if they chose him because...well...what else does he have going on and could easily be used in each episode, but he's only in one episode...so I'm not entirely sure why he was chosen.Like Will & Grace towards the end of the series, Kirstie whips out the celebrity cameos left and right, to the point of obnoxiousness. John Travolta helps out in the pilot episode and his psycho wife plays Kirstie'...

Netflix Review In A Minute: My Life on the D-List Season 1
2008-05-22 16:40:00 I would just like to say how much I love Kathy Griffin now. I remember being annoying with her appearances on Seinfeld and her gig on Suddenly Susan...but now? Now I love her. The first season really attempts to set her life up for you; you meet her assistant, husband, parents, and her "main gays". First off, I love her assistant Jessica. While I'm not sold on her being a great assistant (given how late Kathy was to the Grammy's or Kathy not having her ticket to get into the Oscars), just her facial projection of not giving a rats ass about anything is enough to satisfy me.When Matt, her husband, is first introduced, he's rather large (close to 300 pounds) and you learn that he was thin before he and Kathy got together. I had a huge problem with him trying to sneak weights on his body, so that when he went to the doctor, he would weigh enough to qualify for gastric bypass surgery. They way he kept talking about how it'll just make everything easier really pissed me off. I think ...
Watch YouTube videos, Netflix movies and listen to songs from Last.fm in Vi
2008-05-22 13:34:00 Windows Vista Media Center is an excellent media server for your home entertainment needs. You can connect it up to your TV and watch movies, videos, stream music, record TV shows onto your computer, link up your Xbox 360 and do lots of other stuff. It’s pretty neat actually. However, the best part of Windows Media Center are the plugins! Using plugins, you can do all sorts of other cool stuff like convert your dvr-ms format recordings into other formats or access your Outlook email on Windows Media Center. There are a couple of plugins that I would suggest that really are great if you have Vista Media Center at home.

Netflix Review In A Minute: Scarface
2008-05-20 17:20:00 Well I finally watched Scarface. After a life time of rummaging through Scarface posters at Suncoast or having Scarface t-shirts shoved in my face walking down Canal Street...I decided to see what the fuss was about.Overall, I did like the film a lot. Not something I'd watch over and over again, it was definitely entertaining and held my attention all the way through. If you can get past Pacino's annoyingly fake Cuban accent, I think you could enjoy the film too.They definitely do not hold anything back. Language and gore abound in this film, starting with a rather bold attempt at a chainsaw torture scene. I secretly just wanted to see this film because I love Michelle Pfeiffer and she does a rather good job of playing a disco-era remnant now stuck in the 80's with her old Studio 54 nose candy habits. Her final scene in the restaurant where she rips Tony a new one, was brilliant. Unlike all of Tony's other subordinates, she was never afraid to stand up to him, which I loved.I fe...
