Netflixfan

The links alone are worth a visit. It is Netflix-centric, though.
Netflix has a distribution center in Greensboro that gets our
films here (Durham) pronto.

favorite film-related sites. You'll have a great time exploring

Film
Rotation's newsfeeds, News from just about every film site
with a syndicated news feed on the Web. Takes a long time to scroll
through them all, but you can't say it's not comprehensive. Or
will be when they add us...
Internet Movie
Database, purely for your convenience. If you need boiler
plate info about movies, this is the place to go.
Fillmmaker
Magazine is one of our favorite publications about the biz
these days. Its Web site is well worth your time, too. We post
there now and then on their blog and visit the site regularly.
MovieMaker
Magazine is another excellent publication about making films
and filmmakers. This is the one we buy religiously. The archives
on its Web site are well worth a bit of crusiing.
Hollywood Movie
Stock Exchange, is an online game you can play for free and
it's a lot of fun for any movie buff. You get "money"
to start and invest in films, betting on their opening gross,
or in stars, directors, or projects still in development. What's
more, scientists say these mass market stock exchanges have real
validity in terms of predicting success and failure (or should
we say, in this case, "Reel Validity?" If Hollywood
moguls aren't paying attention to this, they should be. We love
this game.

ten-minute film, which we first saw at the Riverrun Film Festival
in Winston-Salem, now on AOL's moviefone.com and the International
Student Film Festival DVD.)
