-- Netflix's most popular deaf movie
Netflix rates their sports movies. The second most
popular movie is a Deaf Movie! It is "The Hammer" which
profiles the fighting career of Matt Hamill. The actor
that plays Matt Hamill is the hottest deaf actor -
Russell Harvard. The most popular movie is The
Perfect Game and the 3rd most popular is Happy Gilmore.
This tells us that The Hammer is really a big time movie!
-- much easier now to contact FCC on your complaints
In the past it was not easy to complain to the FCC.
Now it is much easier. It now has a video service
844-432-2275 or 202-810-0444, Mondays thru Fridays,
daytime hours. Problems with captions, lousy relay
service, no weather emergency warnings, etc - just
use you relay to contact FCC directly. But if
there are no captions on a Saturday night TV program
you have to wait until Monday morning to complain to
the FCC. This is the bad part.
-- world's largest captions!
Want to watch a TV program where the captions are very
big? Titan, a British manufacturer, has built a new
TV set, called Zeus. It is 26 feet wide and 16 feet
high. Cost? Only 1.7 million dollars! DeafDigest
imagines that the captions are very big. One problem -
may be impossible to carry the Zeus set through the
front door of a house.
