The Video Fortune Teller DVD uses the random-access capability built into almost every DVD player to serve up "customized" Tarot readings. Pop the disc in your PC, click Enter, and "Madame Munzunicar" will assemble your canned reading from scratch.
Weary of Tarot readings? You can also consult her Crystal Ball readings for "Yes/No" answers, consult her Spirit Board for "Magic 8 Ball"-style commentary ("My sources say no!"), or hone your psychic abilities by guessing which of eight symbol cards Madame Munzunicar will draw.
Prefer to try before you buy? Snag a free sample reading from the web-based version of the same software over on FortuneDiva.com.
Well, she was a little dramatic...but my 9 yr old son and I did have a good laugh asking her yes/no questions...but she kept saying 'noooooo' to everything. :)

My affection for the German silent cinema had me accidentally "read Tarot" via DVD.
Films such as Metropolis, Faust, the Golem, Nosferatu, and the Cabinet of Dr. Caligari are loaded with symbolism which are uncannily similar to those one finds in many Tarot decks. I've loaded a bunch of those German silent DVDs in my 5 disc player and hit "shuffle mode" to play the chapters randomly. The experience was like a Tarot reading, but instead of using the static images of cards, these were images in motion being shuffled and displayed. Please note that I'm not making claims that the film makers of Weimar era Germany were inspired by Tarot. One can simply see some similarities in the symbolism.
