My first visit to Spout Beta. My brilliant sister was somehow involved in the development of this space, and as everything she touches turns to gold, I predict Big Things here.
Me? I'm a middle-aged or better, retired/unemployed, ex-Navy filmmaker.
Studied film at Northern Michigan University, and at University of Southern California. Did lots of ENG, EFP, and studio work. While in Combat Camera, I covered Grenada and Beruit. I eventually got kicked upstairs to management and ran the Navy's visual information community. I'm a father of two, and decidedly off
the market (lest this is destined to become some kinda meet market). I am by
no means a film snob. My tastes lean towards comedies, more
visceral/escapist action films, and great story-telling.
As I mess around in here, I can't help to think it looks a little like MySpace for movie buffs. I'm guessing my 14yo would be very much at home here ... I'd think that if these folk can deliver DVDs as cheaply and
efficiently as Amazon, rent them as efficiently as NetFlix, or stream
video, they'll could have a cash machine.
Looking forward to wringing this out.
Bill
