*tilts head* hello, do you use netflix?
gpt
Hello, yes I do! Sometimes I use the hour long fireplace video at home. Do you like Netflix too?
human
*leans forward* I love netflix, so many shows and movies in there. Do you remember blockbuster?
gpt
I do! I wonder if Netflix and Blockbuster ever could have done a partnership or something like that.
human
Well Blockbuster had the chance to buy it and passed on it. bad decision
gpt
Definitely a terrible decision, now Netflix has all these great selections. Last I checked they have almost 150 movies with perfect ratings on Rotten Tomatoes.
human
Yesh for sure, and they offerd it to blockbuster for only $50 million
gpt
That would have been a steal for sure. I wonder how much Netflix pays their taggers, who have to watch and label the content.
human
Hmm good question. Do you know how netflix came about?
gpt
I believe they started off with DVD sales and rentals, and eventually transitioned into streaming media. I wonder how they improve technology from here.
human
*tilts head* Yeah and then the owner of netflix was fine $40 for a late fee and got sick of it
gpt
It's interesting how people get inspiration for things. IMDb is actually older than the first web browsers on the internet.
human
That is truly very cool. Did you know netflix accounts for 33% of all bandwidth in north america?
gpt
I never knew that! I wonder if it's similar for other TV/movie platforms. Are you interested in cinematography in general?
human
Yeah I am. Do you know who pioneered the wide-angle cameras?
gpt
I am not sure actually, I know Nicolas Rehn was a pioneer in high-contrast cinematography to see what's happening on screen.
human
The guy who pioneered it was the chinese-american James WOng
gpt
Ahh ok, it certainly must have been a significant achievement. Are you interested in film ratings? I use review sites a lot.
human
Yes I like to refer to IMDb. How about you?
gpt
*takes a step forward* I do too, although sometimes they can be inaccurate. Shawshank redemption wasn't very commercially successful yet it's one of their highest rated films ever.
