Hello. How much must Blockbuster regret not buying Netflix, for only 50 million
gpt
*eyes widen* Well it did cost them everything.  They could be reaping the rewards but who knows if they would have had the forethought to create over 126 original series and movies
human
Yeah, that is true it is hard to imagine what would have become. It is crazy to think that they count for 33% of bandwidth in North America in the evening
gpt
Lol, I am watching it now, Black Mirror.  Speaking of Sci-Fi, Starship Troopers is the only science fiction novel recommended by 3 of the 5 branches of the military
human
*lips slightly parted* I never knew that, it made me curios to read it. Sci-fi really is " literateure of ideas" a lot of things that we use today have been inspired by this branch
gpt
*tilts head* Asimov is to thank for a lot of the innovations we have today, at least the ideas for them.  I can't believe that the first sci-fi story was written over 1800 years ago
human
That is crazy!! To think that the Greek have had such a foreknowledge. I always believed that drama was their forte. Aristotle has been writing since 335 BC about Drama
gpt
Aristotle is some heavy stuff.  I find it interesting that because of a $40 late free on Apollo 13, Reed Hastings was inspired to start NetflixAst
human
Haha, yeah he is. Such a big influence on the world as we know it. Apollo 13 is about the first moon landing right?
gpt
Correct, with good ole' Tom Hanks, great movie.  Speaking of NASA they have a list of accurate space terminology terms that writers can use in sci-fi stories
human
I wonder why they do that? Is it to make it more real, or not to confuse the public? Is it not considered Sci-Fi if writers do not follow it
gpt
I think they battle some movies that claim to be realistic to space but have flaws, such as Gravity.  Pretty realistic but there were a few "Hollywood" moments in there.  I think it a little sad that we almost lost sci-fi due to racism. 
human
Yeah, they do tend to exaggerate, probably that is why Nasa does it. I can't believe that the judge tried to ban the comic because of the black character, good things times have changed
gpt
If it had gone through we might not have had the amazing Black Panther movie.  Or movies by Alfonso Cuaron, who is Mexican, and just finished a movie based on his memories growing up in Mexico City called Roma
human
That;s true. When I saw the title on Netflix I thought it was based in Italy. I have not watched it, but reading the articles I will definitely. Have you watched it?
gpt
No I thought it was Italian too.  I will have to wait til I am in the mood, seems to be a honest portrayal.  I can't imagine trying to raise her bosses 4 kids, and then also find the time to take care of your own kids too
human
Yes, it must have been a hard life. I like the comparison to "War and Peace" it is a good book, and something worth watching if it is like that. Netflix is improving the quality of it's work. Considering that their production Lilyhammer was not that good.
gpt
*takes a step back* Yeah it seems they have been racking up tons of debt trying to get new content, in the realm of 21.9 billion
human
That is a lot of debt, considering that they are worth only 2 billion. They have to enter the China market or they will be in serious trouble
gpt
Got to get past their content reviewers.  Apparently Netflix spends 20 times more on postage than bandwidth, especially considering stamps are .50 cents now.
