+1
Watched this last night.

Another + for Tucker and Dale. Awesome movie.

What the hell happened to Pawn Stars and American Pickers?

Signed up for 30 day free trial after a hiatus when they raised prices a while back. Excited about a few movies/TV Shows...a couple of which I have seen but are really excellent.

A few in the Queue:

1. Headhunters (watched last night - loved it)
2. Trollhunter
3. Archer
4. Jiro Dreams of Sushi
5. Bad Boys (Sean Penn - seen it but liked it)
6. Oldboy (one of my all time favs - highly recommend)
7. I saw the Devil (another Korean film - twisted but very entertaining)
8. Knuckle
9. Dead Snow (very decent low budget horror/dark comedy - German/Subtitled)
10. Survivorman
11. The Wild and Wonderful Whites (A complete train wreck but hard not to watch)

Trollhunter was awful, i was disappointed with it

Just recently got netflix i will be flicking through this thread for reccomendations

Interesting that they give free trials to old customers.

I just received a free 30 days for DVD service. I had DVD service for prob 3-4 years previously

I got this also if you don't cancel they will charge u

not sure this has been discussed itt, but how does everyone browse through movies to watch?

Ever since Netflix changed thier website to the current AIDS scheme, I never even go there anymore. I used to visit the site a couple times a month, to look thru the genres. I would go to list mode, and sort by star rating to get ideas to add to my queue.

This thread.

www.instantwatcher.com when i'm browsing

Primer is available!

Can't you watch just like one season and then re-evaluate if and when Netflix gets it back or you want to buy the DVDs or HBO Go or whatever?

There's a big first-world problem now with watching old non-serialized TV shows. I'd like to see what shows like Cheers, I Love Lucy, All in the Family, Family Ties, Three's Company, etc. were all about (have seen a little of each obviously), but I'm not going to marathon each one for all 100-200 episodes in two weeks like everybody thinks you have to do in this day and age. We need some sort of guide that advises you on a handful of key episodes of each classic show that you can watch to get a sense of them. A mix of both the "important" and all-time great episodes, plus a sampling of the solid B+/A- ones since the all-time greats are not always representative of the show as a whole.

This is a really good super-low budget brainy sci-fi flick. Not a lot of action, it's mostly all dialogue, but well done for whatever it cost to make (I heard like $7000 or something ridiculously low).

Also, I watched The Machinist, which is in the same vein, kinda like wtf is going on in this movie, but it all comes together in the end. Plus it's got the holy **** that's really Batman thing going for it, too.

Total newb question.

I have a 46 inch Samsung LCD from 2007 just laying around because I'm too cheap to get cable. Want to hook it up to a device that will allow me to use Netflix on it.

What's the best device? Not looking to spend more than 100 dollars on the device.

I've got an apple tv that is ok. Netflix is kind of annoying since it doesn't autoplay the next episode of a tv show though. Roku2 might be good, but I haven't tried one yet. Idk how much the apple tv's are.. but roku2's can definitely be found under $100.

Roku ftw

The best device will be an xbox 360, because it will also let you stream things like mlb.tv in season, plus you get the free not-as-good streaming services included. I doubt you could find one under $100, but it's possible.

Just did a quick search on Craigs in my area and did see some under 100 bucks, but most had some issues.
One guy was selling just the console, no games, wires, or controllers for 70.

Roku has this and more. Roku is the nuts

If you're not interested in ever playing games on it, you can probably find one with a busted disc reader for cheap. You'll need the wires to hook it up to your tv and either the xbox remote or a controller.

Go with Roku then lol

do you have laptop?

you have to purchase xbox live membership (~$60/year)

if you want to go the xbox route, and don't care about playing games, search craiglist and you can probably find one for cheap. some of the older ones had a common "disc read error" problem (not to be confused with the red ring of death) where the drive wouldn't recognize games but the console itself still works.
