This isn't as clearly documented as it probably should be. I have a Netflix account. I have an eligible T-Mobile plan for "Netflix on Us". What is the entire process, soup to nuts, on 1) enabling this feature on T-Mobile, and 2) updating my existing Netflix account to that I get the $8.99 credit from T-Mobile, per month.
These directions don't appear to be correct. I've tried to click "Manage Netflix" on my cell and on my computer with IE and with Chrome. It just keeps taking me to a screen that doesn't align with the directions. Nowhere can I log into my existing Netflix account. Are these instructions still accurate?
It appears Disney and Netflix are heading in opposite directions. One agent who spoke with IndieWire called it a role-reversal between Disney and Netflix; at one point, Netflix was the home for auteurs and Disney was the king of blockbusters.
Oh, and for iPhone 15 peoples, the existing two-years free applies. Meaning that on the whole, Apple has deferred this potential-payment-problem decision till 2025. These days, the feature is available in the following countries, for both iPhone 14 and iPhone 15 users.
The core difference with an app like RideWithGPS is that it also has sensor support (even Garmin Varia radar integration), as well as uploads to all the various 3rd party platforms like a head unit (whereas Google Maps will most definitely not upload to Strava).
Two Things:
1-I like the PeakDesign phone holder on the handle bars, good choice!
2-I wish Peloton would allow none Peloton bikes to connect to their system, specifically for their scenic rides. I like to do those rides from time-to-time, but I am not a fan of the bike itself as I prefer to ride my Cannondale on my Wahoo.
Most other communicators (EPIRB/PLB, 911 call on a cell phone) will pass through an emergency call without any other charges, so long as the device functions. I think where Garmin and others in the satellite device arena are making their money is non-emergency check-ins and tracking, as well as messaging, rather than on a cost per emergency call.
I doubt it will ever happen, but it would be interesting if NordicTrack finally feels enough pressure to add Netflix to its platform after years of users having to use all kinds of workarounds to get it working.
Hi Ray, on my peloton bike+ (UK based) I only see the Disney App in the Beta Entertainment function. Is there a way of getting access to more providers or is all pushed depending on your country etc? There is the netflix app hidden away in the Apps area but there is no ride data displayed in a sidebar so pretty useless. Anyone else had similar experiences?

If you're reading this, you've probably watched Fear Street Part 1 - 1994 by now on Netflix. The horror film launches a pretty solid trilogy that continues to unfold this weekend and next, but once it concludes with Part 3 - 1666, the story of Sarah Fier has come full circle and reached its natural conclusion. Which begs the question, what do Netflix and Chernin Entertainment do with R.L. Stine's beloved Fear Street books next?
Well, for starters, I think they need to plan some standalone movies and traditional franchises, rather than a series of interconnected films from different eras, featuring different casts and styles. Don't get me wrong, I admire the ambition behind the Fear Street trilogy and think that overall, these three movies turned out to be a successful experiment in terms of both genre content and release strategy. The buzz is definitely strong out there among my fellow genre fans, but Netflix may want to mine individual titles for solo films going forward. That said, given my own personal Stine fandom, I think it would be smarter to combine certain titles with similar settings and themes, which is how I approached this list of five directions that Netflix should take the Fear Street franchise next.
The first two kinds of Fear Street books that came to mind were vacation-themed stories set on either the beach or some kind of skiing trip. Setting and atmosphere are an important part of horror movies and Stine has always had a knack for capturing the odd feeling of being in a new place, a feeling that kept readers on their toes and would likely do the same for viewers, I imagine. So the beach and the snow prevailed, as did two of Stine's most popular series -- the super-chiller Cheerleaders stories and The Babysitter books that aren't part of the Fear Street franchise. My last slot went to Stine's holiday-themed books, which seemed like they'd fit well serving a single story while offering up their own individual strengths and iconography.
OK, so this one would combine the Fear Street books Ski Weekend and Truth or Dare. Now, I know what you're thinking -- didn't Hollywood just make a terrible Truth or Dare movie? And yes, it did, but that film hinged on a supernatural concept, which is not what this is at all. Cold as Ice (a working title) would be more of a psychological thriller in the vein of Karyn Kusama's masterful slow-burn The Invitation and E.L. Katz's underrated directorial debut Cheap Thrills.
See, Ski Weekend follows best friends Ariel Munroe, Doug Mahr and Shannon Harper, who become stranded in a blizzard and are saved by a strange man named Red, who guides them to a hilltop ski resort -- only in this movie, Red takes them to the luxury ski condo from Truth or Dare. They proceed to play that same game, which Red and his fellow hosts quickly make uncomfortable, and it soon becomes clear that their snowy refuge is a trap of sorts. As the night progresses, the game becomes deadly, and panic soon sets in as Doug's car disappears and no one can get any cell phone service. But hey, at least the house is full of guns. Will Ariel, Doug and Shannon escape and live to ski another day, or will they be forced to turn on each other in a battle to survive against all odds?
Wanna know how I'd make this movie if I were an exec? Well, first I'd cast Netflix darling Noah Centineo as Doug, and I'd cast Whitney Peak (Gossip Girl) and Emilia Jones (CODA) as Ariel and Shannon. That's a solid young cast right there, and then I'd pay Michael Shannon a few million to play Red before calling it a day because that package should be enough for a greenlight, baby!
One of the reasons I'm super excited to see Old, the new movie from M. Night Shyamalan, is because it's a horror-thriller set on a beach. We don't see too many of those, and when we do, they're often cheesy B-movies emphasizing bikinis and gore over any semblance of a story. But the beach is scary, and it's not just because of the shark from Jaws. All of those small oceanside towns that survive off the summer tourist season would make a fascinating setting for a horror movie, and there are several Fear Street books I think you could mine for beach-related material. You take a sliver of Sunburn and add a gram of Goodnight Kiss, a dash of The Dead Lifeguard, and a pinch of Party Summer, and you've got yourself a tasty treat for young genre fans right there.
In fact, let me tell you exactly how to do this. You start with the basic premise for The Dead Lifeguard. It's about a bunch of young lifeguards at the North Beach Country Club, which some say is cursed. Sure enough, lifeguards begin to die one by one as evil stalks them... from above. That's right, the villains here are vampires -- the bats flying over the beach in Stine's Goodnight Kiss, and the dead lifeguards are April and Todd from that story. But we don't know that vampires are behind the murders right away. No, the first two deaths are initially ruled to be fatal accidents. It's Claudia, the protagonist from Sunburn, who suspects something else is going on while visiting her friend Marla's beach house for the week.
Claudia and Marla team up with Matt from Goodnight Kiss -- who we'll make the head lifeguard here -- and together they track down the vampires, who can either be Marla herself (in a surprise twist) or Party Summer protagonist Taylor and her three friends, which would make this one something of a gender-swapped take on The Lost Boys. The vampires could even "hang out" beneath the town's deserted motel, the infamous Howling Wolf Inn from Party Summer, where the mysterious owner (possibly the main vampire?) allows them to stay. There's an epic confrontation between the bloodsuckers and the surviving lifeguards, who use their training to defeat evil. But is it once and for all? That's for Netflix to decide!
I'll leave the casting up to Netflix as well, though I will say this -- they need to make either David Hasselhoff or Pamela Anderson the Drew Barrymore of this movie and kill off the lifeguards' beloved boss in the opening scene. That's what would get people talking. And again, the title is totally open for debate! I only love it if you love it, right?
OK, so these books technically aren't even part of the Fear Street series, but trust me when I say that this Stine property is The One. And there's no reason that Jenny Jeffers, the titular babysitter, couldn't just babysit for a family that lives on Fear Street. So that's a pretty simple fix.
The Babysitter, not to be confused with the Netflix movie starring Samara Weaving or the 1995 Alicia Silverstone movie, follows a 16-year-old babysitter who starts receiving menacing phone calls from someone whose twisted motives appear to be driven by past trauma they've attributed to an inattentive babysitter. A sequel could move things from high school to college, where Jenny starts seeing a psychiatrist at the university hospital due to her continuing nightmares. Jenny has allowed herself to start dating again, but she's reluctant to take a new babysitter job even though she could use the money. Eventually, she relents, and the threatening calls begin again. Is the culprit Jenny's new boyfriend, her shrink, or someone else entirely? Of course, by the third film, Jenny herself becomes a suspect, which would be understandable given the trauma associated with multiple attempts on her life -- a route I've been waiting for the Scream franchise to go with Neve Campbell's Sydney Prescott.
