If you've got a decent broadband connection Hulu.com is a great way to catch a movie or even a TV show you may have missed...limited commercials...or none...very cool. I watched North Shore the other night.

Lots of other great content...search surf, surfing, etc...good stuff.

On your recommendation Stoneaxe I watched North Shore tonight and quite enjoyed it - cheesy as it is. I haven't seen it before. I like seeing real people acting - they are always so bad at it. As an actor Laird sure makes a good surfer! Hearing some of classic 80's Aussie disco from Gangajang and Psuedo Echo was also a bit of a blast from the past.

Do they still call tourists Haole and Barney over there?

In the movie, I liked how they gave us Haoles/Barneys a mini soul surfer apprenticeship, along with a Hawaian love angle and Turtle was a great 80s character.

If you've ever been to the Gold Coast/Queensland I think the native Hawaiians got a pretty good deal compared to what happened to our Aboriginals, in terms of trashing a place. I've always been impressed with the way Hawaii limited high rise development to only a minute percentage of the islands. Queensland and the Gold Coast in particular is a basket case when it comes to preserving the natural foreshore and limiting high rise to just one part of the coast. Which brings me to another classic early 80's movie - Basket Case, I'll have to get that one out again.
