Re: Netflix "Watch Instantly"

I really liked blockbusters service more...you could rent 3, get them sent..take those 3 back and get 3 more while having 3 more sent....

That was the deluxe package for 20-25 or so...I eventually saw every movie I ever needed or wanted to see and cancelled though..... just my 2c

Re: Netflix "Watch Instantly"

Just wanted to echo the sentiment of The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters as not only being the best documentary I've ever watched, but is compelling enough to be better than most all hollywood scripts.

Watch Man On Wire

Also, the reason King of Kong seems like that is because of how Hollywood they made the movie even without a script. The word documentary should be used somewhat loosely wrt that movie.

Re: Netflix "Watch Instantly"

Crumb is easily the best documentary and one of the best films I've ever watched FWIW. It's on Watch Instantly.

I really enjoyed King of Kong. Man on Wire kinda disappointed both my wife and I.

I started to watch Helvetica. We made it through about half of it.

Loved the idea of its history and use, but I thought the interviews were droning.

the new player is pretty awesome. when you drag the slider it shows you screen shots of where you're dragging to. this is key when watching a sub-1.5 star movie such as Amazon Jail.

also, I believe the Roku player now allows you to use mlb.tv service on your tv, which would have been awesome if the Mets didn't suck so much.

finally, the library of netflix movies has improved significantly, especially with the addition of Starz Play.

wow just watched amazon jail too, so crazy.

anyways, if you don't think the katt williams thing is funny(45 minutes) then you should probably spend more time in the lounge.
