30 for 30s are up now but it's annoying because they're up as like 30 separate movies instead of a series, so you have to go add each one individually

congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 1 August 2012 21:37 (eleven years ago) link

Any recommendations on 30 for 30?

"The Two Escobars" and "June 17, 1994"

Lots of boring talking head interviews, but a fascinating story.

The Woodmans is on Netflix now - haven't seen it yet but it's about Francesca Woodman (promising photographer who killed herself in her early '20s) and her artist parents, I've heard it's quite good

wtf @ neo ned

Looking for belonging, young Ned (Jeremy Renner) falls in with a group of neo-Nazi skinheads and soon lands in a mental asylum after getting entangled in a racially driven homicide. But the arrival of a beautiful black woman (Gabrielle Union) -- who believes she's possessed by Adolf Hitler -- sets the stage for an unlikely romance and plants the seeds of Ned's redemption. Cary Elwes also stars in this engaging indie gem.

goole, Wednesday, 15 August 2012 04:27 (eleven years ago) link

scott: is it actually good?

Legendary General Cypher Raige (Gukbe), Wednesday, 15 August 2012 04:38 (eleven years ago) link

I finally saw The Lovers on the Bridge last night. A bit of a mess, but *that* scene was just wonderful.

Legendary General Cypher Raige (Gukbe), Wednesday, 15 August 2012 04:39 (eleven years ago) link

i enjoyed it. kinda like heathers for a new generation. depends on how you feel about watching people being gunned down in a movie theatre though. or the whole i'm mad as hell and i'm not gonna take it anymore theme. i would have liked it s lot more when i was younger. because the idea of killing all the awful people always appeals more when you are younger.

scott seward, Wednesday, 15 August 2012 13:31 (eleven years ago) link

The Turin Horse is now up on Instant.

Also Glengarry Glen Ross, which I admit I've been jonesing to rewatch ever since that thread got revived.

UPDATE:

though labelled as seasons 2, 4, and 6, the series of prime suspect on netflix instant are 1, 2, and 3. no idea why. this company is so fucked sometimes.

goole, Friday, 17 August 2012 18:05 (eleven years ago) link

"PRIME" suspect, indeed!

max, Friday, 17 August 2012 18:06 (eleven years ago) link

i was just gonna say. i think they must have fucked up the numbers from the episode nos. (last in 1 is 2, last in 2 is 4, etc.).

j., Saturday, 18 August 2012 04:22 (eleven years ago) link

the other seasons are there too, sort of.

Ladies and Gentlemen...Mr. Leomard Cohen

Earth, Wind & Fire & Alabama (Eazy), Sunday, 19 August 2012 05:45 (eleven years ago) link

what does 'sort of' mean?

goole, Sunday, 19 August 2012 17:47 (eleven years ago) link

well, the instant website now shows 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, but all of the actual series are in them, mislabeled and not in the right order. i think that affects how the show player skips through them, too. but if you watch on something else, like an apple tv device, the show's screen lists the actual series in proper order and properly labeled.

I never knew ppl liked Prime Suspect so much
