Cameron H. 23786 Posted July 4, 2017 Ah, but not all Netflix is created equal. Canadian Netflix has a completely different library to American Netflix. I imagine CamB has an entirely different set of menus in Japan. Look, I need you to be a CanadiCAN, not a CanadiCAN'T. Is there any overlap? Does Hulu or Amazon Prime have a similar service? 8 Share this post Link to post

I wish I could be a CanadiCAN about this, but Hulu and Amazon Prime (and Seeso) are not available up here at all. :( 4 Share this post Link to post

Also, Japan has more Netflix movies than the US! 5 Share this post Link to post

We don't have to use the Netflix Chrome extension. We can pick a movie and live post here (if it's allowed) or even on letterboxd. 2 Share this post Link to post

In that case pick away at whatever movie. I should be able to get a hold somehow of most anything via streaming or hard disc as long as it's not too recent. Most important thing is fine a date and time that work well for all those that want to participate. Being in Japan and working a regular job EST Friday night is my Saturday mid-morning so that works well. 2 Share this post Link to post
JammerLea 2070 Posted July 5, 2017 OH MY GOD I CANNOT WAIT FOR TIMECOP! EEEEEEEE!!!! Taylor Anne we'll finally be able to compare some notes!!! Super HUGE thanks to Paul as well for listening to the concerns about those calls, and bless Dana for going through them. I don't know if I can push myself to call in with my phone anxiety but we'll see. I feel like there's at least one thing I can harass Paul about, but I feel like I wouldn't be the only one who might call on it. 7 Share this post Link to post

Being in Japan and working a regular job EST Friday night is my Saturday mid-morning so that works well. Yeah, I wondered how that might work for you, I'm glad it sounds feasible. We can hammer out those details if we decide to move forward on this. I was also thinking, between HDTGM and Musical Mondays, it might be too much for some people to keep up with. I was thinking, depending on interest - and if we decide to do this as more than just a one off - maybe we do it as a monthly thing rather than a weekly/biweekly thing. And while I don't want to put too firm a label on this (I'd like it to be any type of movie, really), but how does this sound: HDTGM Classics. We could either go through the old catalog of HDTGM movies (which might be cool for those of us trying to catch up on the movies we've missed. Plus, we might be able to co-opt the old threads for our purposes) OR this could be us discussing "classic" movies - which is something we discussed Musical Mondàys morphing into, but based on everyone's interest, I have a feeling MM's may go beyond the one year time period we had initially set. :)/> Just food for thought. If you guys just want to watch Kong or something, I'd be happy with that, too. 5 Share this post Link to post
tomspanks 9039 Posted July 5, 2017 HDTGM classics would be great! I still haven't seen a lot of the earlier movies like Mac and Me and Burlesque. 6 Share this post Link to post

My deepest sympathies to poor Dana for having to descend into that twisted Lovecraftian cesspit every fortnight.

I feel like there's at least one thing I can harass Paul about, but I feel like I wouldn't be the only one who might call on it. Thank you Dana SO MUCH for all the hard work you have done... I have called twice, I know I have to work on my accent and pronunciation and also have a quick farewell at the ready to end the call... Also, my anxiety ramps up exponentially as I speak but I have no problem dialing or making the call OH MY GOD I CANNOT WAIT FOR TIMECOP! EEEEEEEE!!!!

When I met CakeBug, I didn't pay attention to a single thing he said, but I liked hearing it in an Australian accent. 4 Share this post Link to post

I don't actually have an Australian accent, but Cameron had his heart set on me having one, so I got an accents tape out of the library and learned phonetically.

Cakebug Tranch 6873 Posted July 5, 2017 Also: I just called in. Having serious message leavers' remorse that I didn't nail it. Or my pronunciation of my awesome new word I just invented: Timecoppelatio. It's okay, it's a grossout message, so I bet Paul will love it! 3 Share this post Link to post
