I intend to sign up once it's available on roku (hopefully early next year is what I heard). It's available on other platforms starting Oct. 19. I cancelled my Hulu plan a couple weeks ago, since they're losing all their Criterion movies next month.LoathedVermin72 wrote:I am very, very interested in FilmStruck.

Re: The Cinematic Motion Picture News Thread
I can't feel bad for him. This is the same sack of shit who encourages people who disagree with him to commit suicide and goes on longwinded Twitter rants about how much more accomplished and influential he is than his "haters". It should be shocking that he's also committed sexual assault but it feels pretty consistent with this kind of scumbag. Fuck him.

I didn't really mean to imply I felt bad for HIM. I can't stand him in any sense. But the situation is too gross for me to feel any kind of joy or satisfaction.

"I can only believe you" huh?

I can't believe that Ryan and Tim are coming to loggerheads at this point. Weird.
