Netflix!

Yeah, there's a Netflix distributor in Cleveland, so I usually get mine a day early, if they're relatively common titles. Not shit like Koyaniqaatsi.

Well, let's get some more recommendations. I just got Netflix. What should I watch that's good?

My next 10:

1. Endless Summer
2. Heat
3. UFC Ultimate Knockouts 3
4. Gia
5. Gone with the Wind
6. The Cannonball Run
7. Taxi Driver
8. Amelie
9. Dogtown and Zboys
10. For Your Eyes Only

Nice. Thanks. More!

I think the UFC discs are fun to watch, so I've seen all the ones Netflix carries. I noticed you had one on your list.

Yeah, they're ok once in a while. I like to mix it up, though. I actually had Battle for Algiers on my list too...

It's just a pain wading through a lot of crap. And while I may not always agree with the movie tastes of all the viewers on SG, the suggestions are MUCH closer to what I like.

i keep a huge list - anything that sounds good, i toss in.
but i move through it in bursts. some weeks, i'll watch tons of stuff. then i'll not watching anything for week.

Post a few, please. Just for ideas.

kthx!

so, here is some of what is coming up at my house -

* an evening with kevin smith
* a fish called wanda
* the committments
* network
* marathon man
*elf
* midnight cowboy
* bad santa
* mommy dearest
* do the right thing
