Thanks Dank

Some young guys got on the train around Linlithgow and started acting up, singing Rangers / Celtic songs (seemed to be a mixed group of Rangers / Celtic / Falkirk). At some point a fat bald guy lost his shit and came up shouting at them to shut it or he'd leather them, at which point all ten or so of them shat it, then started getting wide again when he went back to his seat, so he came back and they shat it again. They started gradually getting wider again as the journey went further on, to the point of loudly bragging to each other about how much abuse they were going to give him once they were off of the train. He then got off at the same stop as them.

Netflix has their shit figured out. Their internal data tracking is amazing. Netflix tracks clicks and watch rates based on geographical region, time of day, and season. They have upwards of a dozen unique posters/box images for their Netflix Originals, all genre-tailored to your liking. If you live in Australia, the artwork for House of Cards is different if you lived in NY. If you typically watch a lot of "action" type movies, the artwork/title logo on thumbnails for shows/films will use the delegated "action" looking visuals even if the show isn't really an "action" show. The entire presentation of box art on your Netflix UI is slowly being created to appeal to your watching trends in more ways that you think.

Just read that on Reddit. Pretty interesting.

Wondered why their artwork has been fucking horrendous for the last few weeks

Do they do any external marketing for their films?

Can't remember seeing a Netflix film on the side of a bus or that.

[PHOODLE-OUt]

Never consciously pay attention to adverts tbh

Don't call pregnant women "expectant mothers" as it might offend transgender people, BMA says
