Beyond Blockbuster

The days of traveling to the video store to rent a movie for the night are over. With Blockbuster now renting online like Netflix and Redboxe renting movies for $1 a night in your local grocery store or McDonalds, the need to go to Hollywood video is no longer an issue. The world of movies got even easier when Hulu was established. Hulu.com was created in a partnership by NBC and ABC and includes 120 full length movies that you can start in an instant by pressing play. No signing up and absolutely no fees (it's completely legal as well, which is an added bonus). Even newer movies such as fever pitch are on Hulu with new movies added daily.



One of me and my brother's favorite things are the SNL digital shorts. I love Youtube but sometimes it is impossible to weed through all of the videos that people made themselves in order to find a 2 minute clip you saw on SNL that you want to share with someone. On hulu you simply type in SNL and an entire page with skits and mock commercials pop up. I was able to find my favorite skit of last season in less than a minute.
