Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

I liked Leverage too, but my wife made us stop watching it because it was too dumb

your wife is right

(i say this as a lover of much dumb TV)

no way, watch all the Leverage

it is pretty dumb and yet its STILL not as dumb as Flashpoint.

i didn't even know that flashpoint was set in canada until i read it on wikipedia. so, i'm basically dumber than the show. canadian t.v.! i really have sunk pretty low...

always kind of liked the just shoot me! guy though.

if you need canadian television just watch continuum

as I've mentioned before, it's almost worth it to see the recycled vancouver actors

Flight, so there's one to pull from the dvd queue

also This Is Not a Film which looks great

hugh dillon on flashpoint was the leader of one of the most successful canadian rock bands of all time!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headstones_(band)

never heard of them.

flashpoint is not so loud and proud about being canadian but they do have a streak of canadiana

that one cop-gray's-anatomy show, rookie blue, is canadian and ashamed of it, so they just try to make everything seem generic in the hopes that foreign audiences will be into the show

hugh dillon also on continuum. and on The Killing on netflix.

see i noticed the canadian accents on flashpoint but i just figured they cast and filmed it there like a lot of shows. i thought it was supposed to be out west in california somewhere.

the bridge, the show with the dude from battlestar galactica as a swinging dick cop who fights for his union and uncovers corruption, also quite canadian, but as i recall their city was kept nondescript

oh lol, it's that guy

yeah, I would have had no idea about this rock band thing

he's very snarly in the youtube headstones videos i watched. a mohawk at times. he used to have hair. kind of like The Godfathers and kinda like grunge punk. pretty funny.

They just added "Computer Chess"! Really excited to watch this.

I finally watched The Road last night. i liked it okay! i love empty highways though. one of my favorite things about the end of the world. i still don't really get what kind of doomsday earthquakes kill all animals except for dogs but whatever. feel like another director could have made it more frightening. that scene in the house where they go in the basement should have been friggin' TERRIFYING. even The Walking Dead does it better and that's a t.v. show. and i'll never understand why they left the bomb shelter. dumbest thing i've ever seen in my life. still think i prefer HELL, the German movie that i keep telling you guys to watch that none of you will watch. same basic idea for a movie.

i had everyone watch that kid chess doc thinking it was something we could all like but cyrus got bored and i got a little bored too. rufus and maria seemed fine with it. pretty straightforward. the drama wasn't that dramatic to me. they seemed like awesome kids though. and it definitely felt great when they did great.

Europa Report. I liked it. Others may not.

Teen Wolf was added a few days ago, I believe. Re-watched it.

Oh, memories.

I love that movie.

the road is awesome

Computer Chess is up

as is Tabu, which is excellent and you should all watch it.

Haven't seen Blancanieves but it's there too.

also you can watch all those films have a b&w themed night to accompany this: http://mubi.com/notebook/posts/what-is-the-21st-century-totemic-values

Might re-watch WarGames. Matty looks natty.

and ally is so adorable in it. best fantasy nerd girlfriend ever. almost believable.

best movie ever.

Oh, Ally.

breakfast club is up too. you could have a sheedython.

Ally and the Breakfast Club have been teasing me for a while now as I scroll through my recommendation carousel.

i might watch Europa Report. looks kinda cool.

I didn't like it.

okay its settled then i won't watch it.

Close call there.

Check out Primer.

i saw the trailer for primer and i don't know...

i just really want thrills and spills. big budget action. i can't help myself. i think i've seen most of the good ones on netflix though. that's why i have to resort to buying liam neeson dvds at the fye store. i saw a good one today that i haven't seen for 4 bucks but i didn't buy it. maybe tomorrow.

oh snap i still haven't seen The Grey. i'll watch that tonight.

Is The Grey based on that book by the guy Shakey likes, Jon Armstrong, maybe?

Was a bit let down by The Grey. Felt like it should have been scarier or something.

Kind of stoked to watch this new Ray Harryhausen doc that turned up.

the grey rules!

it's been on Netflix since it came out on DVD too!

otm

i really liked it. but i love snow movies. even more than empty highway end of the world movies. this was even bleaker than the road actually. or rougher to survive anyway.

if you watch it make sure you watch the credits to the end!

watched Sniper:Reloaded last night. pretty boss. bought discount dvds at fye but now i see skyfall is on netflix so might watch that first. dvds i got were: colombiana (a scandalous blend of action, sex, and violence), babylon a.d. (with over 10 minutes of additional explosive action), faster (the best straight-up action film of the year), rampart (tense, shocking, complex, mesmerizing), unknown (neeson kicks even more butt in unknown), and the contract (the only thing standing between an assassin and his target is a father who must protect his son).

unknown ZZZZ

but he kicks even more butt!
