possible to run mplayer ascii video after boot messages?

Hi,

Is there a way to run a short mplayer ascii video clip after the boot messages?

I've got some video of a shark that I can play with the mplayer ascii feature (mplayer -vo aa -monitorpixelaspect 0.5 file.avi)

Sure. Put the command in /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
