Unbelievable. I only just found out that there is a Kickstarter project to fund an HD restoration of Manos: The Hands of Fate — one of the worst films of all time, and subject of a classic Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode. This clip shows some of the early results.

Netflix spins DVD rentals into a separate company →
I have to say I’m quite surprised to hear that Netflix is launching a new company called Qwikster.1 The new company will take over their entire physical disc mailing business, while Netflix will be streaming-only moving forward.
The stated goal is to better focus resources on each of these products, which have their own cost structures and so on. Fair enough. It’s clear they have realized streaming is the future, but not quite yet. I wonder if this won’t just kill their physical mailing business Qwiker (bad pun).
