Listen to a Movie Online (No Pictures, Just Sound!)
Who says a picture is worth a thousand words? Sometimes you’d be surprised by how much is conveyed in a movie just through sound alone. Of course, the whole “moving picture” thing is kind of what makes a movie a movie, but I’m sure I’m not the only one who sometimes puts on a movie just for a little background noise. Now, with the website ListenToAMovie.com, you can listen to over 1400 different movies and 300 different TV episodes… absolutely free!
As their tagline states, the site is aimed at “The Cubicle Workers of the World”, and although it’s not intended as a service for experiencing movies you’ve never seen before, it’s an easy way to throw on an old classic while you work. The cool part is that apparently they also have a lot of audio commentary tracks included as well, which can be even more suitable for listening without the accompanying visuals. Is this all legal? Something tells me it’s not, however, I’m guessing the MPAA probably has bigger fish to fry at this point. So if you’re interested in listening to a movie online, click on the link below and take this site for a test drive.

I discovered this yesterday and turned a couple of friends on to it. There was much joy to be had in listening to four or five movies through the workday and suddenly everyone is in a better mood.
For some reason it doesn’t work for me where I work, which I find odd since my workplace doesn’t block us from accessing any kinds of sites or media. Sadly, listening to Die Hard will have to wait until I’m at home (when, really, I could just put the DVD on).

Posted by el suave on November 27th, 2008I used to do this when I was a kid, I recorded movies on to audio tape and listened to them constantly. Beetlejuice, Evil Dead 2 and a few others.
Posted by swarez on November 27th, 2008Good stuff.
YES! A couple of years ago I bought a bootlegged copy of Casino Royale, that had a really good picture but horrible sound. Now, thanks to this website, I can synchronize the audio with the bootlegged dvd. It’s a dream come true. Thanks for the link, Sean.
