Went through the whole site. Overall looks clean but it is still confusing. 

I want to know exactly 
1. How it works
2. Who it is for. Is it for learning english or learning another language?

Here are my stream of reactions as I scrolled.
1. Don’t just show movies on the homepage. Show me a little of how it will actually work. I discount it because just showing movie footage is lazy. Makes you look cool, but doesn’t show me the value. 
2. Don't just show me a list of movie posters. Cool artwork, but how will I learn from the movie?
3. The text “A new learning experience powered by stories.” is fluff. What are you actually saying? New doesn’t equal better. Learning experience = what? Powered by stories = I get that already the first two pages are all about movies.

const arrowTenPromise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    let importantNumber = 11;
    if (importantNumber == 10) {
      resolve('Success using arrow functions, so we call resolved for the promise.');
    } else {
      reject('Rejected because important number is not equal to 10');
    }
});

arrowTenPromise.then(function(result) {

Heuristics to tell great AUDIO stories
1. In Interviews, questions to always ask:

1. Tell me about...
2. How did you feel when... (or, how did that feel?)
3. Can you give me an example?
4. (Superlatives) Best, worst. funniest, scariest, hardest, least certain, favorite, etc...
5. (Dig for emotional moments)
2. in reviewing tape, look for three types of moments as good quotes to use:
1. Facts to understand the story (many can be voiced over if they drag on, so don't overlook if they're boring. Flag them.)
