Okay it's not high definition, it's a silent film but it needs almost no system ressources.

1. Open Terminal

2. Type there telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl

3. Wait a minute and enjoy the show!
 
thats awesome 😀

I assume it's streaming from the internet, yes? If it isn't, I might watch it on the train. It doesn't kill the battery at all 😎
 
That's correct. In the simplest terms, you're opening a "remote desktop" connection to a computer that's playing the movie.
 
Just so you know, this will work in a terminal from any operating system, including, GASP!!!, Windows....
 
Whoa. I first found out about this about 3 years ago. It's not done yet?

I didn't even know it was incomplete, because I never bothered to watch the whole thing.
