Windows Movie Assistant"Often, movie viewers feel that they didn't get the most out of the movie. Maybe they missed a plot twist, or they didn't understand what was going on," said Alvin Hematoma, product manager for Windows Media Player. "We designed WMA to be like a good buddy watching the movie with you, or that guy that talks too loud in the theater." During playback, WMA will provide information to help the viewer. Whenever important information is revealed, the assistant will repeat the information, often with an explanation of why it is important. </i>"<br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/windows_movie_assistant.jpg" />

My brother used to do that to me when I was watching TV and he came in half way through the show. DROVE ME NUTS!!! (Until I moved out into my own place).
Good thing you posted that this was a spoof. I was thinking that MS had really thought some people needed this kind of 'assistant' and I was thinking of all the technological ways they could 'assist' the watcher. E.g. "Look over here (with big arrow). The slasher is going to come out of this closet with a machete..."
