Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

holy shit is he? i haven't seen it since 01, it's been sitting in my queue for forever like so many other things

very very very small hidden role as the narrator

scott, saxondale is fuckin' great; do watch that

Series 7 is super awesome

we watched part of some firefighter witness relocation movie with bruce willis and it was megalame and then we switched to a completely bonkers Dutch movie called The Northerners which defies description, but then we settled on a movie called Another Happy Day which was actually pretty good and a step above the Sundance movies. about a fucked up family. ellen barkin and ellen burstyn are good in it. demi moore is evil. lots of fighting. oh and blue crush is the cutter daughter. some pretty crazy scenes. and some laughs too.

and the nina simone song that ends the movie is pretty incredible.

directed by barry levinson's son. who was dating ellen barkin at the time it was made.

plus Dale was in it and he was hilarious:

4400 "ending" was soooo annoying. it's a pretty solid C+/B- level show

they ended the story with a couple of books after the show was cancelled. can't netflix books though.

reading? that's for chumps!

Nhex I am both envious and terribly sad for you

"The story was just horrible to say the least. camera angles were bad in spots. The only thing I liked about this movie was just seeing hot and sexy shirtless buff guys. The reason why I rated it 2 out of 5 is just because of the shirtless hunks."

the woman on cover of that second one looks scared or weary

this is not a good definition of 'best'

Scott's stills from the movie are cool though

jesus h christ wtf are these movies

how do these make money

LANSING, MI—Seeking a sense of bottomless dread about an aspect of ordinary daily life that had heretofore seemed innocuous to him, local resident Michael Strzpek decided to watch any of a thousand documentary films available to stream on netflix.com Thursday evening. “I already feel terrible about American politics, advertising, water, dolphins, fast food, and Walt Disney, so let’s see what other documentaries can make me feel terrible about something it never occurred to me to feel terrible about before,” the 31-year-old claims adjuster told reporters. “I’m just really in the mood to feel like complete and utter shit about something I do, eat, purchase, patronize, or support, and I want the depths of its ugliness revealed to me through a combination of shocking footage, interviews with experts, and sober voice-over narration.” At press time, Strzpek figured this documentary exposing the dangers of wind turbines “should do the trick.”

LOL, was just going to say, the canon DeCoteau will provide all your softcore needs. Provided you like dudes, in particular.

Enjoyed Happy People: A Year on the Taiga. I'm not entirely clear on what was done by Herzog vs the other director (I had originally thought it was shot by the other guy for Russian TV and re-edited/narrated by Herzog, but I'm not sure), but it's definitely more straightforward and earnest than the standard Herzog film. Certainly has a lot of his standard themes. Very visually beautiful and even kind of inspiring.

Dredd was pretty solid! Thanks for the tip. Like a more entertaining version of The Raid (imo) crossed with a Robocop reboot. Appreciate how it justifies all the ramping.

okay if this was as good as the raid, i gotta try it

Fwiw, I didn't like The Raid.

u get the side eye

Dredd made me want to see Trespass again. and every movie where people have to shoot their way out of a building.

It kind of made me want to see Lockout again.

Parker is streaming now. #Statham4ever

Parker was a fine action film but didn't feel much like a Parker film, if you know what i mean.
The opening heist scene is cool but there were several things later in the film that seemed wrong to me.

Something about Statham to me seems like he should be right for that role, but isn't? But I still haven't seen it.

haven't seen the parker movie but it seems like while statham has the right face and attitude for the character, he's maybe not big enough? parker is always described as huge and hulking while statham seems like he might be short.

Hooboy, by that criteria you'd better avoid Jack Reacher.

i don't mind non-hulking action guys and i like statham. it's just that parker is supposed to be BIG and SCARY.

it could be that Statham is such a known commodity now it's hard to take him seriously enough. (and I am a fan! but he will never top Crank)

would have preferred statham as reacher, that's for sure. maybe too young though. kinda hard to tell how old statham is though. neeson in top form would have been perfect reacher. yeah, he's not perfect in parker. his americanisms are way off, but i didn't care, it was fun enough.

i said it before and i'll say it again, other than neeson, the governor would have been PERFECT reacher.

dude has the ex-military bearing, the bulk and height, and he looks like he could snap you in two. and he looks like he doesn't have a problem being really quiet for weeks at a time.

when i read parker books i vacillate between picture him as lee marvin à la point blank and, for some reason, burt lancaster

hey u guys, movies have never been beholden to physical attributes in a novel. Rooster Cogburn is sposed to look like Grover Cleveland.

that would have just confused people
