I just watched an episode of “Timeless” about Mary Grace Winterton. She’s been referred to as “Mrs. Sherlock Holmes” — a female investigator on the New York police force before women even had the right to vote

They could build a whole series around her. Sort of a Sherlock meets Bramwell but set in 1910s USA.

These are worldwide subscriber numbers. That number goes up because they keep adding countries, and then using the high prices in existing markets like North America to subsidize lower prices in emerging markets. This makes it easy to add subscribers. At a later date they will probably start slowly raising prices in those markets, just like they did in the US.

If you do some internet searches, you’ll see North American subscribers have been stuck at around 80 million for a few years.

Were his pupils dilated or something? Maybe he needed a bong hit to get through all of the craziness going on.

That’s worldwide subscriber numbers.

In the US and Canada it’s hovering around 80 million. Doing some searching, I can’t figure out if that number is going up or down.

It’s worth noting that outside of North America, Netflix subscription prices are usually much much lower. For example, in India, an ad free subscription costs around $7 per month.

So while Netflix is adding subscribers, it’s outside of the US, and possibly at much lower profit margins.

Can someone explain to me when Presidents suddenly got the power to tariff everything? I could have sworn this was congress’ role.

I recently watched an analysis of “2010 The Year We Make Contact” and I have to agree with the premise that this is actually an interesting movie. It’s got a stellar cast that put in good performances.

I also love the retro futurism vibe with CRTs and Apple IIc’s. This has to be a conscious choice to make the audience relate more to the situation by bringing in some current day tech. The future feels less far off, and less sterile.

Its sin is in trying to unravel and ground some of the mystery of 2001. But the HAL of this film feels a lot more like the creepy AI of today, and less like magic.

Maybe so, but this is the first article I’ve seen about the series that’s almost made me want to watch it. 😆

87% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes!

Such a horrible title for a decent movie. Then they tried to rename it for home video and just made it worse! It’s like they hired the team that names Microsoft products.

I found the other person who liked the Solo movie besides me!

The original Andromeda Strain is an excellent movie.

Should have stuck to the book. Doing vignettes about how the invasion affected people would have been far more interesting.

Dull dialogue. Wooden acting. Jar Jar Binks. What a disappointment.

I’ll believe it when I see it. Thank God that Moffat isn’t involved (yet anyway).

Now where did i last leave that Nicholas Cage “you dont say?” gif…

So what you’re saying is that articles like this are just meaningless marketing spin.

Is that adjusted for inflation? Because i find it difficult to believe that a CGI sequel has done more box office than say “Bambi” or “Snow White” which were re-released repeatedly in theaters over the years.

Is it wrong that I keep hearing this statement in the Matt Damon voice from “Team America World Police”?

I miss real Trek.

If by “stay ahead of”, you mean “own”.
