Netflix

I got a Netflix membership last month. I love it; I'm truly addicted. My only problem I only have one friend on Netflix. I feel I have to share my movie ratings and review with others.

What is the
*Coolest
*Scariest
*Biggest Mind Fuck
etc....
movie you've ever scene?


Anyone else addcited to
Netflix?


Edited to get more traffic. I suck at starting threads but I really, really want this one to last.

not a fan of "Classics"?
I can understand not a fan of "old movies" because most old movies (like most new movies) are fucking awful.

but classics?!?! the mere word basically means "good movie"

i am a huge netflix addict. that's one of those "i wish i thought of that" ideas.

Dog Soldiers
Best non-Japanese horror movie of late.

Ooooh... you can have friends now? We're on as idjiit@hotmail.com if you want to add us. Our tastes are pretty broad - we've been a bad horror film kick lately.

I am definately a Netflix Junkie, I just bought my first gift membership for my Bro in Law, I am definately going to use it as my generic gift rather than amazon for some people.Drop This into your queue

but she doesn't like to read and the dubbed version of that is atrocious

Luckily it makes as about as much sense whether you understand what they're saying or not.

when i got my burner, i couldn't get enough of the flix.

now that i've illegally copied a kagillion movies, i've cancelled my membership and don't have time to watch them.

maybe.

I love Netflix and have been a member for 2 years. Thanks to them I have an insatiable "Sopranos" habit.

Love Netflix, but has anyone else noticed an increase in bad DVDs? Usually i can fix it with a good cleaning, but it seems like most of the flicks I rent start skipping at some point.

Oh, and you should rent "The Dancer Upstairs". I got it on a whim, and it is VERY good. The (first?) film directed by John Malkovich, and it stars Javier Bardem. Oddly overlooked when it came out.

Seven Samurai and The Seventh Seal are two classics that come to mind. I know you said you don't like classics, but you need to learn to love them or we are through. You hear me?

Yes, Netflix is rad.

If anyone is more interested in indie and hard to find movies you should try GreenCine. Its like netflix in that they mail the DVDs, have no late fees, etc, but you can find a much wider variety of films. Hell, they even have a large "Adult Film" listing. Now who can say "no" to porn delivered right to your door?!

I love Netflix. We have been getting into old TV shows lately. But as for non-old, non-subtitled, and non-war movies, how about Limbo (or really anything by John Sayles), the Cider House Rules, or the French Connection?

Most of the NetFlix movies that are listed under classics do nothing for me. I'm trying to get around to all the Academy Award Winners and such.

Academy Awards are about industry politics, not the best movie of the year.

todays double feature you need to get:
- Fail Safe & Dr. Strangelove

tomorrow's:
- Butch Cassidy & The Sting

the day after's:
- Iron Giant & The Incredibles

and the day after that's:
Treasure of the Sierra Madre & The Maltese Falcon

Loved the Iron Giant and The Incredibles. Have to add the rest.

I went through a bad stretch of this as well; it was like people were wiping their asses with the discs. lately it seems better though.

That is just a really bad image.

:eyeing Super Size Me Disk beside me now: I don't know if I'll ever trust another movie.
