Streaming Wasteland
by Greg, Richard
In the wastes, no one can hear you stream.There are no shortage of movies on streaming services, but if you're like us, it takes so long to find a movie to watch that you end up giving up and watching something familiar instead. All the other movies are consigned to the wasteland, to linger on the server endlessly, hoping that someone will click on it.That's where we come in.Each week, we trudge through another movie found out there in the desolation, and answer once and for all if it deserves to be forgotten.
