30 minutes in: in terminable man on the street interview segment with various people about abortion

First: teaming of Netflix with Disney ensures the former just got a much longer lease on life.

Second: Doctor Detroit! So many weird things about this movie revealed just in the opening credits.

Theme song by Devo!
Featuring a performance by James Brown!
Dan Aykroyd in short shorts!
Howard Hesseman as a pimp!
The name of the DP is King Baggot! (he also shot Revenge of the Nerds)
The score is from Lalo Schifrin!
Expensive Chicago location shooting!

Plus, the woman who plays the mob boss was the cover model on Supertramp's "Breakfast in America!"

Also, James Brown performance in the third act

Donna Dixon and Dan Aykroyd are still married! Before she dated him, she dated Paul Stanley!

Looks like a boatload of classic Doctor Who was just added.

Oh, and Alps

That's the same Dr Who stuff that was already there, but broken into the original episodes rather than being strung together. Also no subtitles, which makes late night viewing a bummer for me... video is cleaned up though.

Suffice to say I have watched little else but Who for months now.

Watched "James and the Giant Peach" with my daughter this morning. What a horrible jumble of highs and lows, shot like shit and frequently poorly or overacted out the wazoo, but with its moments.

"pastorela" - mexican dark comedy about a cop who's yearly role as the devil in the nativity play is given to someone else

Expiring in the next couple of weeks:

Sin Nombre
Che
A shit-ton of kids' shows

speaking of, transformers prime RULES

do i get free 2 day shipping with Transformers Prime?

wow, it's won daytime emmys

"mansome" a documentary about the changing ...face of facial hair grooming, by the guys that played the two older brothers in arrested development. i guess it's mostly a documentary but i can't figure out how much of the main guy featured in the longer competitive beard growing segment was just joshing

so is this gargantuan "The Story of Film: An Odyssey" thing as good as it sounds?

on a more typical note, "FDR: American Badass" just showed up (Werewolf FDR fights nazi werewolves) and I am STOKED

I like Story of Film. Hemming and Hawing over it can be found here: Mark Cousins' The History of film: An Odyssey

sometime ilxor Jeff LeVine has praised Film: An Odyssey to the skies on facebook.

Has anyone seen Cleanflix? Looks interesting, wondering if it's worth checking out.

Ginger Baker in Africa

Queen of Versailles is an amusing watch.

just noticing seasons 3 + 4 of being human are up

I haven't had Netflix in a few months but if you like anime and want to see some crazy stuff, they had lots of "Sgt. Frog" streaming.

Queen of Versailles is an amusing watch.

I'm afraid it might just make me furious.

It won't. If anything it's a lot of schadenfreude.

ya thats what i asked my friend when she recommended it... do i get to see this ppl suffer

these

She comes off as quite sweet if often totally unaware. The husband is a right dick, though.

Why had I not watched Sherlock? I have been living life wrong.

otm

Dammit, why is Kind Hearts & Coronets or Badlands not streaming?

Is there some service I can pay for that's effectively just "Streaming Film School"?

Hulu+

What's the library like?

I don't have it myself, but Criterion has a deal with them so all their movies are streamed on there. That's as close to a film school library you can get, I think.

important to note that the Criterion movies on Hulu don't have commercials dropped into them

hmmmmm
