Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

it's way more talky than even I remember, like lets not do anything ever but stand and emote for half an hour DON'T YOU SEE DONT YOU UNDERSTAND
I still,love it though

Thank u Pacey for being awesome in Fringe

aw i think katie holmes is kind of good in the first season! maybe not good exactly, she's pretty limited but she's kind of likable in the first season. there's so little that's likable about this show; why am i obsessed with it? i really do love katie holmes; she was so young and full of hope and unencumbered by tom cruise irl then.

v. bummed that the theme song had to be replaced

it's hilarious how the fake theme song is maybe even worse than the paula cole theme

after watching Antichrist, I made my 20yo friend watch Dawson's Creek. She made fun of me for 20 minutes (also castigating everyone on the show) then got hooked and made me watch two more episodes

didnt realize till now that antichrist was an adaptation of DC

lol

this is the exact quality of watching dawson's creek. my senior year of college i would regularly watch the last season with two friends of mine at their apartment. we told no one. one day i went over early and they were watching n'sync concert videos and were incredibly embarrassed that i'd surprised them in the act. layers upon layers of shame.

that's how i discovered n'sync's terrible cover of "just got paid."

what is this thread about again?

she doesn't understand my appreciation of Michelle Williams and thought having the sun dress unbutton between her legs was pretty skanky

damnnnn they had to replace i don't wanna wait on dawsons creek!? that is just plain wrong. is there some kind of petition i can sign to have it reinstated.

I DONT WANNA WAIT
FOR OUR LIIVES TO BE OVAHHH

i've been going through all of brothers & sisters, there needs to be drinking game around the heartfelt speechings

"Black Stallion!" A+ kids fare ftw

"The situation presented in the 1970s horror classic The Omen is not just the stuff of fiction in this examination of Satanism and the occult. The film presents evidence of Satan's offspring on Earth and connects the monsters of history to the devil."

just climbed out of a Netflix rabbit hole after adding 20 documentaries to my queue

Was 666 Revealed one of them?

It was, actually.

I assume The Story Of Anvil's one of them as well.

tim & eric's billion $ movie is up now apparently? haven't seen it and it got mediocre reviews but i'll probably watch it

also "jon benjamin has a van" has been up and is very inconsistent but when it clicks it's capable of being very very hilarious

the ep with tim and eric is great. time travelin van runs over alien. film at 11.

i like the one where their sound guy gets kidnapped so it's silent for like 10 minutes, some great sight gags

prepare for sorrow at Tim and Eric s movie - what a failure

johnny depp rum diaries movie is up - plz note, have not seen, might be garbage

I'm a big tim and eric fan but I couldn't get even halfway through the movie.

it was a very sad departure from their show. I think they did tha on purpose becuase they are msichevious and like to mess with people

i had high hopes for Rum Diaries-- the director of my favorite film lured out of semi-retirement for the first time in almost 20 years-- but it is thoroughly mediocre despite some great performances. I suspect the problem is the hunter s thompson original which depp and robinson seem too eager to be faithful to.

Oh shit Tom Noonan's amazing What Happened Was... is on there now! Recommended x 100.

i watched this the other night, it's p great

Wow this Tim and Eric movie is something

Annoyingly, a smattering of Miami Vice episodes, which are otherwise streaming, are disc-only. I gather this is music rights related, but still - fuck you netflix.

they pulled that with Magnum P.I., then pulled it from streaming, and now it's back with all eps, I think. And Magnum wouldn't have had music issues, so who knows.

they should replace the problematic Miami Vice music with crappy cover versions like WKRP did.

Why else would I watch the show if they take out the music cues?

they did do that with miami vice - there is a sound alike girl just wanna have fun in episode one

They should have hired Mary Margaret O'Hara to rerecord THAT one.

"Hot Dog: The Movie"

Amazing how gritty and class-conscious a lot of these '80s movies are, even (or especially?) these late night cable specials.

OK, maybe not class-conscious, but definitely working class oriented.

i started watching case 39 for some unknown reason. it was so bad. got about half way and had to stop. tbh because i was scared.

listen, shut up

it's a p conflicting set of emotions when something is very successfully scaring the pants off of you but it is also so completely crappy

totally gonna have to check out case 39 then.

haha yeah don't. ...i didn't come here just to post about case 39 but clearly i didn't get to it. hmmmmm. i wonder what it was.

anyway, there are two versions of apocalypse now on instant. original and a 2001 re-edit. do i bother with the new edit? or was it some bullshit george lucas move?

i dont care for the redux, orig is better imho

Being Elmo was great. Kevin Clash is so rad.

watched the apoc now redux for the first time a couple months ago. It's chock full of new, mostly uninteresting scenes better left on the cutting room floor. Original is where it's at.

the extra 3 minutes of Brando are cool.

I feel like every ski/snowboard comedy is this way. Always those fucking snobs picking on our plucky hero ski bums.
