Sounds fun! Wish I didn’t have to work :)
Time to get the PROXY turned on and tune in from Canada ;)
seriously, why 3pm ET? Not that i cannot put on my bluray whenever i want, but seriously?
Good question #3. Why not at 8:00 PM when everyone’s not at work? I’ll be curious to hear how this comes off. I’m betting there will be lots of “Please wait….buffering” going on. No thanks, I’ll stick to my Bluray too!
US proxy time I guess
@ Enterprisingguy … totally agree.
It’s nice they’re doing stuff with Star Trek, but 3pm Eastern is noon my time. Not really convenient.
Heck, 3pm isn’t really convenient on a weekday.
I might do it but just have it minimized so I can listen to it while I’m working.
I have a digital copy on my iPhone and iPad. Streaming is cool but eats bandwidth I can’t use at work.
It was such a fun experience chatting with other fans, commenting on the movie!
Did I see you there, Anthony?
i was there, couldnt figure out how to change my icon, but i hopped from ‘row’ to ‘row’ and put up lots of inane chat triva and silly thoughts
This event was apparently timed for those who don’t need to work.
Aw, sounds like fun for everyone who made. I know the live viewing that TrekMovie did was a great time. (What ever happened to having more of those, by the way?) It’s not just the watching the movie, those who mentioned thye can just pop in a Blu-Ray, it’s watching it with a bunch of other fans and chatting and having conversation and discussing at the same time. I couldn’t watch this one, but they’re a lot of fun and maybe I’ll join in next time. :)
#9. I couldn’t figure it out, either, but I had fun. We prolly exchanged lots of comments! I couldn’t figure out why some of the lil
boxes were jumping up and down and being annoying–until I figured out how to use the Sheer! button. Then I annoyed right along with the best.
Epix is cool. Finally caught Iron Man on it this morning.
We could arrange our own group screening for friends from here. I still have 6 days left on my trial subscription…
