SCREENSHOTS: 1000 Rated Movies on Netflix

Feel a little proud of this tiny accomplishment:  1,000 movies is a lot.

If you don’t have Netflix, get it and then rate a bunch of movies because Netlfix will give you some solid recommendations based on your voting history.   I’ve learned a lot about my movie preferences by the type of films Netflix recommends.

It seems as though I like classics, romantic comedies, cerebral thrillers and visually-striking films.  Plus when Netflix suggests I would give a film a 4 out of 5, they’re usually right. But they’ve been wrong a couple of times.

I’m not getting paid to say all this about Netflix, nor do I really have any allegiance to their service – I just really like it and you might too.

Get Netflix and we could be friends too and share movie recommendations! :-)  My username is CrequeVision.

P.S. – I’ve seen Eddie Murphy’s Delirious before. Netflix is trying to play me… smh

Song makes me wish I could play the piano.

BUTTERSCOTCH is on IMDB

There are still a lot of details that need to be added to the page, I’ve sent a request to update some of the missing information and correct incorrect crew positions.

I’m also trying to merge “Neil Williams (X)” with “Barry Williams (VIII)”. I want, “Barry Neil Creque Williams” as my full name on IMDB.

Mouthful, but at least I’ll be the only one.

Chyea,
Neil

Shout Out To Neal Creque

Was on YouTube (searching for the documentary I still haven’t finished) when I arrived at a link to my relative Neal Creque, jazz performer. Here’s what the wikipedia article on Neal Creque has to say:

Neal Creque (1940-2000) whose real name is Earl Neal Creque was an American jazz composer, born April 13, 1940 and originally from the Virgin Islands; he was based in the Cleveland area up until his death. [1]

He also composed music with Mongo Santamaria including the grammy nominated song Sofrito which was sampled by Jennifer Lopez on the album J.Lo.

He was a sought after session musician and his credits include Stanley TurrentineTheresa BrewerLeon ThomasGrant GreenHarold OusleyBernard Purdie, and Eddie “Cleanhead” Vinson.

I met him once when I was little, according to my mother, but unfortunately I don’t remember.  I really enjoy his music though, it has this funk, jazz and latin fusion that I’m really digging.  Here’s the video/song I was listening to on YouTube!
