Has it hurt the movie theater industry? Has it hurt Hollywood in any way? Or has it bettered the actors that could get roles and movies that are strictly for streaming services. Is there more work opportunity for them? That's a good question to ponder. How do you feel about them? Do you subscribe to many of them? And do you happen to find decent films on the streaming services? I know there are millions of streaming services out there now. Amazon Prime Voodoo Shutter, Netflix Screen box

But ever since I subscribed to Netflix over five years ago, I think I began binging House of Cards, and I don't think I ever went back. I went from one show to another, and the original content on Netflix made me pay closer attention to the subtleties of every show and movie. And I also think that the bar these days is a lot higher because of the shared diversity of content on all of these platforms, whether it's prime or Netflix or Hulu, whatever it is

I didn't get into that show, but I know it was very popular, but I do have Netflix. I've had it for years and I could find some good gems on there. You got to kind of dig deep, but their horror section is not too up to par, but they have a lot of television series that people like, and they do offer exclusives. And I enjoy the Netflix exclusives. And I've written several reviews on the Netflix exclusive, so I enjoy doing that

I really like Disney Plus for the movies because there's so many throwback movies for me from when I was a kid that I would have never otherwise thought of to watch, but because of Disney Plus, I'm able to watch them and really enjoy them. But yeah, I mean, you make a really good point and how it has definitely impacted Hollywood, I think, but not necessarily for the worse or for the better. It's just changed. And arguably the changed the way we view movies

I like to experience the movie on a big, huge screen with IMAX or surround sound speakers and all that kind of stuff and just the whole experience of getting the popcorn and all that. But I'm a film fanatic. I'm a movie buff. So that's what I like. Do I like sitting at home and watching a movie in the comfort of my own home with my bathroom right there. I could pause it and stuff. Sure, of course. And that's the pros of streaming
