Thanks.  I'm an engineer, not a graphics artist.  Feel free to send me
a patch!

I'm not sure that this is a good idea.  I would like to see Filmwatch
target standard DVD releases only.  Otherwise, Filmwatch's credibility
will be in question (``So, just where do you expect people to get this
Matrix.avi file, anyway??'').  If more than one standard release
exists for any given movie, the name of the film can reflect that.
