YouTube Movies

The American President is one of my favorite movies, and while I happen to be watching it on Encore right now, one day I probably will not have access to the many channels my parents get thanks to Verizon Fios. So I was delighted when I (re)discovered that YouTube has movies!

I love the screenplay so much in this movie; not only is it quick and witty, but heartfelt and meaningful. You just don't come across awesome monologues like the one that President Andrew Shepherd gives at the end of the movie.

I was looking on YouTube for clips of The American President to share on my Tumblr; I figured there were so many awesome quotes and scenes that I was bound to find something worth sharing. And then the first thing that came up was the actual movie.

This will be great when I do move out and won't be able to afford getting movie channels.

Here's the link to The American President on YouTube. It's $2.99, which is a little bit less than renting a movie On Demand.

I know that a lot of college age students will try their hardest to avoid the ever-increasing movie ticket prices and will scour the internet to find a way to watch movies for free, often at the cost of the security of their computer from malware. I honestly think it's ridiculous, and as an aspiring artist myself it's greatly frustrating to see people undermine the value of art by being so selfish as to refuse paying for it. People today expect to get everything for free or as cheap as possible. They refuse to understand or acknowledge the value of something. Well, anyways, that's enough of my rant today. Just remember that good movies are worth their price!
