Yay, Netflix!

I got myself Netflix yesterday (as a reward for getting a job offer; more on that Monday), and today I discovered that it lets me watch movies instantly on my computer. I'm very pleased about that. I watched "Orange County," which I wanted to see when it came out in theaters but wasn't allowed to because it had Jack Black in it and I was eleven. Cake's "Shadow Stabbing" played during the opening scenes, causing me to do a bit of a double-take, as I'm used to hearing that song at the beginning of a different movie.

Netflix predicted later that, based on my other ratings, I'm likely to give "Wordplay" 4.7 out of 5. Good to know the system works!

It clearly doesn't work. ONLY a 4.7?

The .3 must have been docked for Ken Burns. Or maybe Netflix just agrees with me that your hair was way too short.

So was Orange County good? I kind of want to see it.

Yay job offer! Tell us more!

It was a cute movie. Not terribly realistic, but fun and amusing. And Jack Black is just awesome.

I'll post details about job stuff when I know more, which should be on Monday.
