damn realplayer. i refuse to install it after all the problems it has caused me. i hate it when sites require it for streaming audio or video.

be sure to read the release before submitting, there's some pretty serious rights transferral in there. of course, it's only ten seconds, but still, be sure to read it.

The Big Bang is pretty funny.

Some of these are pretty good. I like Schoolfight the best, but I didn't get to watch them all yet. They should make it an option to watch them all strung together in one file, rather than having to view each one separately. Just to make it a little easier.

these videos, are they something you would need RealPlayer to know about?
I too was enticed by their siren call, but steadfastly refuse to install the player

I also refuse to install RealPlayer. So do these guys.

Well you could install, watch the films and uninstall. Or would that be cheating?
"Toasted" is one of my favourites so far.

(Yawn). Wasting your time 10 secs at a time is still a waste of time.

The one called "school fight" rocked, by Yamaguchi.

But their website fucking sucks, and I refuse to tell people about it. There's no way to tell anyone about a movie, unles, I want to enter their email adress into the site (no thanks). They could at least provide a direct link like hot or not.
