A Long Awaited Return

After a long hiatus, I'm back in action and ready to write again. Finally having gotten over the initial shock of returning to school, my mind is back on film and with Netflix at my side this time around, I'm prepared to revolutionize the film industry. Well...I might be setting my sights a little bit high, so I'll just settle with keeping what few readers I have left informed of what's going on in film and what I have to say about it.

For right now, I'd just like to say how excited I am about having Netflix for the first time. It's been working out great with the affordable $8.99 plan which allows me to get one movie at a time, but the amount of movies per month is unlimited. Included is 9 hours of instant watching time. The one thing I was worried about was the return policy. Firstly, I wanted to know about late fees...low and behold there are NO LATE FEES whatsoever. You are allowed to hang onto a movie for as long as you want. And Second, I was concerned about how deliveries would work trying to fit a package through a tiny mail slot and how I would package it up in order to return it. Again, Netflix pulls through. The package is as thin as an envelop and will fit in any mail slot no matter the size. And as for sending it back, you just reseal the envelop that the movie arrived in with the unused sticky strip on the edge of the envelop. It's genius and I'm sad I've caught on so late, but if YOU haven't GET ON IT!
