Technology has been added to the Now Showing pages that compresses the content before it is sent to you, resuling in smaller file downloads and subsequently faster page displays. For example, the Alphabetical list of movies view is around 65KB. Compressed, it is 6.4KB, which is more than 90% smaller. Current browsers support this technology, and older browsers that do not are automatically detected and sent the data normally. This has been tested thoroughly (it's been running on The Marquee and in Reader Reviews for quite some time), but if you experience problems, please use the Feedback Form and let us know so that it can be investigated.
