@Web-Man I'd like an invite. Thanks!

@DraconyAlso applying for an invite if you have another to spare. Thanks!

Vamp 1986 - A film that features one of the most bizarre avant-garde stripteases I have ever seen in a movie. Two dudes are desperately trying to get a stripper to entertain a fraternity they want to join and one of them locks-onto Grace Jone's character.

Hey @Dracony, I am interested in a Filelist invite if you still have one left.

Hi @cinematorrent I'm applying for your HD-Torrents give-away. You may have run out by this entry, but crossing my fingers. 

I think they like to mess with the audience, and LOL at the "swing kings" being the band they wanted.

Al Bundy?

Yeah, and for me, the Netflix DVD mailing service  is more appealing than the streaming service since it has that older content and a bigger library of movies. I only streamed when certain shows came on, like Arrested Development, but couldn't find much else to stream, so I cancelled it.

Please no.

There was another post asking which format was preferred, and 1080p was one of the most popular. What filesize (x264) do you target for a standard length movie (about 90mins)? I tend to go for around 10GB, give or take depending on the movie. I don't have a very scientific approach to that number, but it seems a DVD movie is on average 4GB in size, but is mpg2, so double that and add a little more for 1080p and x264 is a bit more efficient. Bluray remuxes at 20+GB at the moment seem a little too big for the time and space required for them. I'm curious to see what other people tend to get. 

@emitto Thanks, I guess this topic can be closed now.

Another movie to check out is Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988).  It's a fun movie with great visuals and practical sfx. The Chiodo bros / cousin bring a bunch of artistry to the movie that they developed since making movies as kids.

Summary: Aliens who look like clowns come from outer space and terrorize a small town.

Which 80's to 90's ABC TGIF show was your favorite? Which would you want to have a reboot if it already doesn't have one?

Could be wrong, but is this one just for Howard Stern stuff? It is in beta / very new.

Lucy Li, but earlier stuff.

Sex-Art. What's your favorite?

To have underboob requires bigger ones-- I like this trend. When will freethenipple finally be accepted?

The cryptocurrency sector is populating with enthusiasts on a daily basis. This makes the mining process more expensive as the energy requirement increases. However, the founder of BitTorrent is building Chia, which will be a proof-of-space (PoS) cryptocurrency unlike Bitcoin’s proof-of-work (PoW). According to the creator, this will be a cryptocurrency better than Bitcoin (BTC).

According to a report by WIRED, Bram Cohen founded Chia as an alternative to Bitcoin. Notably, Cohen made a controversial reputation for himself with his aim to “democratize” the internet. From facing thousands of lawsuits from content creators, now he wants to sanitize the cryptocurrency space.

The WIRED report notes that Cohen wants to create a crypto-coin that is acceptable to the industry. However, the coin will not be symbolic of what cryptocurrencies are today.

The Chia Network launched in 2017 after Cohen left BitTorrent. In fact, BitTorrent is currently under new management after acquisition by TRON. Particularly, the coin will try to balance between the traditional financial institutions and the blockchain network. According to Cohen, who is Chairman and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Chia, they will facilitate monetary transactions.

Interestingly, the person who once facilitated the illegal transfer of files over the internet now wants to facilitate money transfers. However, the main focus here is to change the relationship between the blockchain industry and traditional financial industry.

Per Cohen, Chia will not focus on the initial supply of digital coins. He notes that this is one of the reasons that initial coin offerings (ICOs) are unattractive. Also, many ICOs turned out to be scams which drove more people away from the concept. For this reason, the coin will go public through the traditional initial public offering (IPO). Chia is not after inflating its coffers. However, the start-up wants to establish a professional relationship with investors.

For this reason, the startup already has around $3.4M USD in seed capital from Silicon Valley investors. Perhaps it is not just the professional look that attracts investors to Chia. According to the startup’s website, the business will adopt an unusual startup model. Instead of the usual mining process to obtain cryptocurrencies, enthusiasts will have to “farm” them to obtain the Chia coin.

What is different is that traditional cryptocurrencies rely on PoW, which consumes a lot of energy. In the case of Chia coins, users will rely on Proof-of-Space (PoS) in order to obtain the coins. Basically, this entails using more storage space that users the world-over have.

Fragmentation and exclusivity is annoying, but these services also lack older content. That content will die-off if people don't continue to curate and maintain these media libraries. The streaming services need to figure out how to get more content available and that sticks around long-term. There are many times I see amazon stating they no longer carry a movie since they lost the streaming rights.

Hopefully there are back-ups of the info there. Is there anywhere else that has an equivalent?

Prefer 1080p bluray, but web-dl is usually fine as well.

I'll start with TerrorVision (1986), a very strange and campy movie that is an entertaining watch.

Summary: A family's new satellite TV system starts receiving signals from another planet, and soon it becomes the passageway to an alien world.

If you like 80's workout fashion, check out Kiiler Workout (1987). It features an interesting murder weapon and has a little bit of a mystery to it

Summary: Two years ago, a young woman named Valerie was burned after entering a tanning salon. Now, her twin sister, Rhonda, runs a local gym where, all of a sudden, people are being murdered.

What a strange idea, why not just make a NEW character, like a daughter he didn't know about and have her become a spy?
