Same here cecil - chromecast (google tv) into receiver for me - amazon prime does dolby dts, and crave does not.

I don't mind missing the 5.1 though as my receiver does a decent job of mixing things

This is why I download shows to Plex even though I subscribe to Crave. It’s just a better experience.

Anyone watch the new Elvis movie? Absolutely loved it, very well done. It's cliche to proclaim an actor was born to play a role, but Austin Butler truly seems like he was born to play that role.

Has anyone come across any promo codes for Crave for those without a service provider?

Curious if this is just a "me" problem. I use an Android phone to cast the Crave app to Chromecast. About a month ago the "skip intro" button moved from the phone to the TV screen. So it still comes up for a ridiculously short period of time, but I also can't press it because, well, my projector isn't a touch screen. It just pops up there, taunting me. I thought this would be a one day glitch and they'd fix it, but apparently not. Is this my punishment for asking them to leave it up longer than 3 seconds? Why are they so bad at this?

They did have a Black Friday deal, so they might also do something for Boxing Day.

Also, you can buy a $100 Crave gift card for $75 until January 4, which you could then apply to your subscription: https://www.crave.ca/en/gift

Just started this yesterday and binged through 6 episodes so far. Really enjoying it and I'm not even a big basketball fan.

There's a funny canadian movie called 'arsenault et fils'. Kind of Fargo-esque:

Huh, flicking through the French channels and had no idea Super Ecran just shows straight up hardcore porn late at night.

So, the obvious question is, what time did you end up going to bed?

Turns out they show porn on Super Ecran 3 every night starting at 10 - https://www.crave.ca/en/live?tab=schedule

This is like a 90s teenager's heaven. We had to sit through how many erotic thrillers just to see Shannon Tweed's boobs on our tv screen?

not even a boob straight up, like a scrambled monochromatic boob from the Superchannel subscription your parents didn't have

I became a real cinephile in high school because of the Drambuie Showcase Revue.

Does it count if you never made it more than halfway thru the movie?

When Tom Cruise made vanilla sky I was like I’m sure I’ve seen this before in Spanish.

Highly recommend four part documentary on Crave called Thunder Bay. Based on a Canadaland podcast about Huge numbers of Indigenous deaths in Thunder Bay that have gone uninvestigated by Thunder Bay police due to systemic racism rampant in the force. Absolutely sickening and gutting.

The Crave app is the slowest least responsive app in the world.

Also, read the book "Seven Fallen Feathers". Just heartbreaking and enlightening.
