Program director #1093

I would like to play program director.
The advantage to having all the movies in a database, just as having a 
collection of cds, is the ability to program them to play one after the other. 
I have a collection almost as vast as the "Turner" film collection.
   This Halloween I would like to program the Halloween "Spooktacular" I would cue-up my Universal films of classic monsters. I would start off with  Frankenstein ( the original starring Boris Karloff). Follow that with the "Bride of Frankenstein" and after that the Bela Lugosi "Dracula". Why pay for HBO or "Showtime" when I can play movies I like over and over again.
   With a program director feature I don't have to stop cooking to referee the dispute over what to watch next. Truly commercial free tv would be mine! We won't even talk about the movie line-up I've got planned for Xmas!! During the football season??? Between games, We got one for the gipper, Brians song, Any given Sunday. Not to mention recordings of previous games from the week before. Then I'll go live for the broadcast of that Sundays games.
