Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

yeah it was like grade 3

running scared is a lot of fun iirc

High Art's good, too.

Bronies doc up today :/

Do not watch The Lifeguard. That is all.

Watched the Patty Schemel doc,Hit So Hard, the other night (along with the Big Star doc). Both totally worth the time.

Big Star doc was good. I was concerned that it was going to be a lot famous fans waxing nostalgic for the first time they heard "September Gurls" and while there was a bit of that bullshit (the bane of all fucking music docs AFIAC) it was more minimal than many and there are enough interviews with people close to the band and the recordings to make up for the fact that Bell and Chilton are somewhat... elusive to say the least.

The Big Star doc is excellent -- also glad it didn't spend too much with the "famous fans" at the end (also, I saw that show, and it was *terrible*). Nothing on "In Space" either (good).

100% behind the Big Star doc recommendations - it's tremendous. In a way it might actually have been a worse film if it was made a few years earlier - the lack of direct contributions from Chris Bell and Alex Chilton keeps the mystique preserved.

The STRAIGHT TALK WITH MARGE THRASHER clip is hilarious. "We'd like to do one more tune..." / "Gustavo, we're not quite ready for it."

Wine plus double-feature of Dredd and Lair of the White Worm made for a fun night. My wife hasn't seen Altered States, so I said we definitely need to watch soon. She asked, "is it weird too?" "Of course!"

I definitely want to see more Panther Burns footage.

hee hee, that whole performance is great

will watch the big star doc soon!

So great. My basic ambition in life is to have someone ask me "This is anti-music, is that right?" Tav's "Thank you very much" response to Marge's "That may be the worst sound I've ever come out on television" is perfect, as is his lovechild-of-David-Byrne-and-Ron-Mael image.

er, "ever HEARD come out on television", I mean

"100% behind the Big Star doc recommendations - it's tremendous. In a way it might actually have been a worse film if it was made a few years earlier - the lack of direct contributions from Chris Bell and Alex Chilton keeps the mystique preserved."

It would have to have MANY years earlier to get a direct contribution from Bell...

Good Burger

Death
Race
2000

In the midst of all the old catalogue coming back there lies James Franco's As I Lay Dying.

sailor who fell from grace is p cool

Oh, and Nostalghia

Rock'n'Roll High School! Red Dawn! 12 seasons of Murder, She Wrote!

Have something on my list called Color Me Kubrick or Colour Me Kubrick with John Malkovich expiring on the fifth. Is that any good?

My cat from hell season 3

yesssssssss

i watched 'new world' last night, which is this pretty incredible 2013 south korean gangster film. it's this almost perfect marriage between infernal affairs/the departed (undercover cop on a long-gestating assignment within a crime syndicate) and election/election 2 (two different crime bosses vying for a newly vacated throne.) loved it!

omg we watched miami connection last night and WOW
a little too much fighting but i loved the revenge of the nerds orphan house/band concept

what a grand picture that one is, we had the best time double featuring that w/'someone i touched' (that cloris leachman STD movie)

maybe i'll suggest that one for tonight! nothing says "snowed in" like topical cloris leachman!

"Topical Cloris Leachman" sounds like what you should use to get rid of an STD.

this sounds like pretty much exactly what i want to watch tonight

yeah i am intrigued

it's 135 min long but it flies by

have you seen 'Outrage'?

oh whoa New World is the same director that did 'I Saw The Devil', I'm definitely onboard.

def, that mob execution by car + rope + depressed accelerator was one outstanding moment in cinematic history

otm, so great! there's gonna be outrage 2 sequel in like, February I think.

Underrated Raymond Burr Bootlegs

Cerebral Palsy Dramas Starring Raymond Burr

Preferred the Schemel doc to the Big Star one, mainly because the Schemel one is just more human and involving I guess. Also, I can never quite gauge whether I actually like on balance like Big Star or not. I'm ambivalent about a lot of Hole stuff too so I guess the difference was the difference here.

Must stop watching music docs before my recommendations get ruined.

Too much likes there

Amityvilles one through three are up!!!

Launching now, hello evil window eyes and lalo schifrin

:D

they have frances ha now, in case you are harboring a residual fascination with greta gerwig and are willing to maybe see if you can make it through another one of her movies

and the final season of futurama!!

Frances Ha is great.

But if you're looking for a litmus test for "that sort of thing", Drinking Buddies is also up.

xp nice, i can finally delete all those Futurama episodes from 2012 off my DVR
