Chat Night movie viewing?

[RickR]

Just putting some feelers out to determine the feasibility of watching a movie together during a chat.  I figure if we all had access to the movie, we could try to keep in sync via communications during the chat...and talk about the movie as we go.

 

So who all has Netflix?  Is there some other on-line source I should look into?

 

Netflix has "Big Trouble in Little China", which may be a good movie to start on.

 

What do you all think?

This was the idea behind the Atari I/O Movie Club

I'm hoping we can find a source that we all have access to so we can watch and discuss together!  I think that would be a lot of fun.

Adventures in Babysitting maybe?

I do this every Sunday night with friends.   We use:  https://www.rabb.it/

As long as you can find a stream somewhere for it, you can watch it together.   It's not perfect, but it works pretty darn well, and a lot better than tinychat used to.

The bad news is there has to be a stream available publicly to use it.   The good news?  Well if you know what to look for you can find a stream for JUST about anything.

I'll be here for a few minutes testing (I've never hosted.)

If you have a second, please click and see if it works for you.

That works great!  I think this is a good way to do it!  Thank you!  We'll talk more.

Great, I also see that you can log into your Netflix account and share those movies too.    I'm in there streaming Animaniacs now.
