Especially those streaming platforms that force you to pay to have ads removed too. People switched to streaming platforms like Netflix SPECIFICALLY because it was CHEAPer than cable and had a wide array of all the content you want to watch, but now all these different platforms’ plans cost damn near more than cable. WHEN IN DOUBT, YOU ARE A PIRATE 🏴‍☠️!!

My Thoughts On... #43 - Premium subscriptions 💻▶️💲💸

Many of you are familiar with streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, YouTube Red, Peacock, Paramount+, Disney+, etc. Where you can watch many shows and movies, as long as you have an account. But there is one drawback to some streaming sites which is premium subscriptions. Yeah, there are some episodes of certain TV shows as well as movies where in order to access them, you need to sign up from a premium subscription. Which not only requires you to enter your name, age, gender, e-mail address, city, state, and zip code, but also your credit card number as premium subscriptions cost money. Also, it's not just streaming services that make you sign up for premium, it's also this one comic strip site called Comics Kingdom. (Which I mentioned in a previous My Thoughts On... post) Yeah, they're wanting people to subscribe to premium in order to access their comics. Also, I know what you're thinking, "If you're bothered by Comics Kingdom requiring people to sign up for premium, then don't visit their site anymore and stick to like ArcaMax Comics or something." Well, suppose one day, ArcaMax will do the same thing. Require people to sign up for premium before accessing their comics. All I'm saying is, while I understand that they're having us sign up for a premium account in order to make money, they're practically draining our credit cards into worthlessness. Nobody's going to want to watch any shows on any streaming site if it means they have to pay possibly more than they can afford. Plus, there might be some people out there who want to watch shows and movies on a streaming service, but they don't own a credit card. What are they going to do? What if whatever show or movie they want to watch isn't available on other streaming sites that don't require premium accounts? I'm just saying, premium subscriptions are a waste of time, and a nightmare for a bank account. I mean, like I said, I get that some shows and movies require a premium subscription so the people who run the streaming service can get paid. Also, it means the shows and movies are ad-free, which is a plus, but not if it means draining our bank account once a month. Or I could just be overreacting and don't want to pay for a premium account, or can't anyway because I don't have a credit card, and if I did, I wouldn't use it to pay for viewing TV shows, movies, and comics once a month. Of course, there might be some people who are the same way. They don't want to drain their bank account just for some entertainment. So, what do you think? Should premium subscriptions be abolished? Anyway, those are my thoughts on premium subscriptions. Hopefully you'll enjoy this post, and be sure to favorite, re-blog, and/or reply. It's optional, of course.

[airyairyaucontraire]

What??? Why can’t I keep what I’ve got and not have to pay more for extras I won’t use? I don’t want to blaze anything! I don’t go over the limits for posting, queuing or liking! I bought Ad-Free because I wanted to get rid of the ads and support a website I liked using. Now I have to go back to seeing ads and stop my support! This isn’t what I want at all!

@support @staff this is a really, really, really bad idea!!! Please walk it back or you will lose this subscriber. Just let me keep the plan I have! Don’t try to gouge more money out of me for the same service (I will not use the extras!) or you will not get any more money from me at all.

WOETH AUTISM BE UPON THEE

ko-fi doodle for @don-queerote

[mistyheartrbs]

another thing about i saw the tv glow that fascinates me is the like...movement (transgression?) across mediums in that to begin with it's a theatrical feature film about a tv show. and when you think about it, while there are lots of tv shows about tv (30 rock, showtime's episodes) and lots of movies about the movies (singin' in the rain, la la land) there isn't as much crossover between the two as you would expect - few if any tv shows about movies, even less in the realm of movies about tv.

when isttvg came out in theaters, brigette lundy-paine made an instagram post with this caption:

which is a direct reference to a line their character says in the film - that the pink opaque airs on the young adult network right before they switch over to black and white movies for old people. (i'll have to double check if maddy says "movies" or "reruns" in the actual scene; i remember it as "movies" EDIT: it's reruns but my point still stands) and, for much of isttvg's runtime, it both operates in tandem with and against this notion - it's a cinematic spectacle, visually gorgeous to be sure, but the scale is very small, almost claustrophobic at times, in a way that says that the experience of watching this movie wouldn't be incredibly diminished if you played it on a boxy television in the middle of the night on basic cable (so long as you had somebody to watch it with)

but maddy's line is said with a surprising and youthful sort of disdain - the pink opaque is so different from the dumb nostalgia of their forebearers (with the same winking-at-the-camera irony with which a comic period piece notes the record-breakingly fast ten-mile-an-hour horse carriage or what have you - what they see as progress already obsolete in the eye of the modern viewer), and moreover it's in the exact medium it's meant to be viewed in. it's a tv show they're watching on tv (and in fact the impetus for owen and maddy to grow closer is owen specifically saying "i want to watch it live") - versus black and white movies, the original filmic spectacle, being thusly reduced to something smaller and lesser than they were meant to be. but of course that would never happen to our favorite Brand New television show, the pink opaque, which is super cool and is going to be relevant forever! nothing like that stuff for "old people." it's indicative of how prickly maddy is but it's one of the least sentimental sentiments of what is otherwise very much a love letter to the screen. it stands out!

(and we get even more of that with the streaming version of tpo later, but i'm getting ahead of myself here)

and it's further complicated by the fact that owen views the majority of the show via home-recorded vhs tapes, handmade gifts from maddy, forbidden things. the way you watch it matters too. the way you construct your relationship with this story. which in a way queers the viewing model too; he's literally watching the show out of order!

and now getting back into the horrendously depressing streaming scene, in which schoenbrun does the impossible and makes the phrase "soup party" upsetting, the convenience is what makes it wrong. transgression in the wrong direction. anybody can watch it. you don't even need a disc, owen/isabel says in voiceover, numbly. but instead of maddy's tapes, born out of connection/love (to a degree that neither of them even fully recognize yet), this version of non-normative/alternative access is something dictated by capitalism (it's also worth noting that the streaming scene is the only moment of overt product placement in the whole film, with the new flatscreen with the LG logo all but shoved in front of the viewer). owen/isabel flicks through the episodes lazily and languidly, landing in the middle on the mr. sprinkly episode. there is no effort involved anymore, none of the personal element present in maddy's handwritten notes ("season 2 finale: guaranteed to make you cry!"), just picking and choosing.

all this culminating in a movie about television, with a pseudo-wide release and enough buzz that it did moderately well as far as indie flicks go.

yet - inserting myself into the supposedly distant third-person analytical essay, as queer theorists are wont to do - i don't really think i would have been nearly as affected by this movie if i'd just watched it on like. netflix. if it'd had commercial breaks on late-night cable ("past curfew," as owen's parents repeatedly note) that's one thing, but the modern streaming paradigm doesn't really allow for that. seeing this movie in theaters forces you to go to the theaters. it forces you to sit with other people and view it together/separately. to walk out mid-credits and talk it through with your friend and look at each other and joke "(gasp)............we're secretly in another world where that dunkin donuts is two blocks away!" when the google maps app glitches out. you have to sit with it. you can't not sit with it. it took effort to get here, and you cannot so easily get it out of your head. it's a movie about tv. the medium doesn't fit like a glove. it barely fits at all. and you are left feeling like it's been much longer than a hundred minutes.

(i'd love to see if a24 has fun with merchandising once it gets a home release - if they sell a novelty vhs tape or what)

i think a lot of that is really something to look at. much like the film itself i do not have a conclusion to this essay.

I knew this could happen but I didn't think it would happen so soon. It's too risky to rebuild this, since I also keep my research materials on MEGA and need it for my studies. Even if I could recreate this archive, the next time someone snitched I could get my account deleted.
