PVOD (premium video-on-demand) is when you pay a one-time price to watch the movie digitally on platforms like iTunes, Amazon Prime, Vudu, Google Play, etc.

Personally, at those prices, I'd much rather wait for the Blu-ray release.

Not to mention having this exact amount of money in your bank account.

That's correct.

Fun fact: last year, The Super Mario Bros. Movie made $75 million in PVOD sales. Additionally, studios get a bigger cut of the money in PVOD - instead of splitting it half-and-half with the theaters, they get about 80% of the profits.

And the best part? It's all digital, so there's little to no manufacturing costs, and they won't "run out of stock".

It's no wonder they're focusing so much on digital these days.

The company or the politician?

An even better deal would be to buy the 4K version. You're paying $30 for two discs!

I know, I just need a keyboard and nothing more.

Though I might have to try out Heliboard to know what I'm missing.

EDIT: Wow, I'm trying it out now, and it's like I have a completey different phone! I'm switching to Heliboard full-time now, thank you!

It's amazing how much time you can kill when you're constantly at doctors appointments all week.

Doctors appointments? Not for any negative reasons, I hope?

Then we get The Webslinger (with one of the most iconic screen portrayals of the Green Goblin before the actor unexpectedly dies), and finally The Webslinger Rises.
