Anyone Familiar With Tubi TV?

[Darcy Parker]

Cool not that big into Anime anymore,just kinda fell out of watching it.

Been tempted to grab Peacock for a month to watch Season 3 of AP Bio. First 2 seasons were fun.

Just looking at the lineup again, MP has a ton of great Japanese and Korean movies thanks to licensing from Arrow.

Darcy what all does Midnight Pulp have? Been meaning to try out a new service.

Also B-Movies TV now also has a VOD channel.

They have a fair crossover with Tubi for horror stuff, but a ton of cult and anime, including a shitload of anime OVAs that are very expensive and rare physically these days.

It would be nice if they did what Midnight Pulp is doing now, offering a paid level to get rid of the ads but keeping basic service free.

Good point. Even though I'm a cheapskate and don't like to shell out money to rent individual movies, I would definitely pay a monthly fee to have access to Tubi's library commercial-free, as they have a vast array of titles.

Watched the movie AVENGED (2013) on Tubi today, and there were about a dozen ad breaks, each of which seemed around 2 minutes long. (Yep, I do know I could watch the service on my computer to block the commercials, but I prefer to stream on Fire TV.) This seems to be happening as they get more and more popular. I wonder if there will come a time when Tubi becomes so mainstream, they decide to no longer show movies of the kind they now offer.

By the way, I also noticed in the Full Moon section that BEST OF SEX & VIOLENCE is being shown as REEL EXPOSURE. Not sure why.

I just watched it today for the first time. Unfortunately, it's a severely cut version (69 minutes vs. 77 minutes). Pretty much all the extreme moments I've read about seem to be missing.

It was still pretty crazy fun. The Nazi symbols on the armbands that would be whited out then return from scene-to-scene and the final confrontation in what is clearly the back of the soundstage used for the movie (including the shooting schedule clearly shown on a board with the film's alternate title, STINGRAY II) are just a few of the demented highlights.

Thanks for the recommendation, Mark...

Aw, that sucks that it's the chopped version. There was some discussion on AVM about the whited out swastikas, that if they were out in certain areas, displaying a swastika could get you arrested, but in other locations, not a problem.

I don't know how I feel about recommending the film if the swinging dick fight scene was cut.

That's sad. Mad Foxes aint the same without the castration.

Tubi just added

MAD FOXES.

So, if you've never seen MAD FOXES, now is your chance. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

I just watch through my browser and use adblock.

[Jack J]

I'm in Euroland and I watch Tubi thru a VPN - no problem. Also, I download the films that I'm going to watch and thus avoid the commercials.

Thanks for the list of AGFA films, Ian. I hope they release their print of CENTIPEDE HORROR on bluray (and add it to Tubi) at some point.

I know amidst all that is going on in the world, this will sound petty, but...DAMN, the ad breaks on Tubi seem to be getting longer and more frequent.

I'm trying to find out what service the ads come from if it's external. Once I get the info, I'll share it here so we can all set our routers to block them!
