Big Top Pee-Wee
Synopsis
With his beloved bicycle safe and sound, Pee-wee Herman moves on to loftier pursuits in the 1988 sequel to Pee-wee's Big Adventure. When a traveling circus lands in his backyard, everyone's favorite man-boy falls for a lovely trapeze artist and takes to the high wire to win her heart. Much silliness ensues, including a talking pig, a hot dog tree and yes, Benicio Del Toro

It's a private beta nipsyEpixHD.com offers its free, HD-quality videos without annoying commercial interruptions. The site will have similar features to Hulu and YouTube-like crystal clear picture, rewind/fast-forward capabilities, and there’s no need to download any special software. The Epix movie service is a joint venture formed by the content owners; in this case, the service is powered by the movie studios Lionsgate, Paramount, and MGM.
The service has some 175 movies available, including some relatively recent hits like Iron Man and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, as well as a custom-produced recording of a live Madonna show from her Sticky & Sweet tour of last year and an exclusive Eddie Izzard comedy special.
For the beta-test period, though, you still need a user name and password to log in. A bit more technical background: The service is delivered using Adobe Flash Media Server 3.5 and Akamai’s HD streaming service. (HBO also has selected the Adobe Flash platform for its “TV Everywhere” play.) Each asset, according to Rensing, is encoded six times with bit rates ranging from 500 Kbps up to 720p HD at 3 Mbps. Every 10 second, the video player automatically detects the bandwidth available and adjusts the rate accordingly for smoother playback. Epix will be bundled directly into cable packages; under the current business model, it will never appear as a separate charge on the bill and will never have to be added to a package.EpixHD.com offers its free, HD-quality videos without annoying commercial interruptions.

I won't hold my breathe.So what's the catch? How can viewers watch Iron Man, Cloverfield and other new releases without paying some kind of fee? Currently Epix is working to keep the content free, to strike deals with cable and satellite providers to offer the channel as part of the standard TV lineup. Epix didn't go into specific details on how the content will be provided without some kind of revenue, however Ars Technica reports that Epix is perusing a strategy similar to ESPN 30, ESPN's streaming service.
