Good Netflix

App, Movie, TV Show, Business IdeaBrett MercerComment

Idea: A redesign of Netflix which is actually good. It'll be good because a) the shows are better (obviously), and because b) it'll offer a much more immersive experience. It'll support immersion into a particular movie or TV show by including commentaries, Arsenio Hall talk show promotional segments, bloopers, and other bonus content related to the movie or TV show. It'll also support immersion into the time period of the movie or TV show by showing TV commercials from the time period (and allowing you to buy the old-timey products in the commercials), by enabling censorship rules from the time period, by simulating audio/video quality problems of the time period (such as tracking issues), and by simulating other inconveniences from the time period (such as stopping the video stream at 1:00 AM to simulate the local TV broadcast tower shutting down for the night)

Animation Studio Sitcom

TV Show, MovieBrett MercerComment

Idea: A smart, topical, and meta sitcom about workers at an animation studio who never get to finish their movie because real world news keeps necessitating plot changes. Also: not knowing the plot of the movie you're animating, releasing the movie that the animators are creating in the sitcom as an actual movie, manipulating world events to match the movie you're working on
