Yeah, upon reconsideration I guess that story is also far fetched. On my initial watch I just felt like the family weren't the brightest bulbs and could see them thinking that would be a great idea.

Although the subjects were pretty enjoyable characters, I left this one feeling like the whole 'Somm' culture was centered around bull****. I might just hate wine culture though. I watched with friends and thought the entire thing was supposed to be a subtle exposé of the high-end wine connoisseur thing being a farce.

I think Woody Harrelson is a PSH tier actor and love everything from him, but I couldn't help but think that Harsh Times and Training Day were both superior version to the corrupt LAPD angle, although Harsh Times isn't really 100% a LAPD flick. Either way, it's another stellar Christian Bale performance and an entertaining film. Harsh Times is probably a little darker than both if people haven't seen it but I'd definitely recommend it, esp if you're a fan of Bale.

Speaking of Bale, checked out Out of the Furnace. Worth a watch, I'd rate the plot a C- but the acting close to an A. They definitely did some good casting and set the scene well for rural northeastern communities. Easily one of the more realistic portrayals of bottom of the barrel rural fashion up in the northeast.

Lastly, recently watched Melancholia and Nymphomaniac from Lars Von Trier. Found Melancholia to be far superior, and I guess many people label them both 'art films'. They get a little slow at times, but I definitely appreciated the sometimes bizarre and unique filming styles. Curious how others feel about Von Trier's films. Nymphomaniac is obviously pretty NSFW and both films include nudity.

juicy double post,

Realized that The Master is on instant now. Not sure if it's been on awhile but I know many people are PSH fans here. Gonna check it out now, expecting it to be excellent despite somewhat poor netflix reviews.

I thought The Master was great, Phoenix and Hoffman both kill it.

Slightly off-topic but I can't get my damn Roku to work and haven't had Netflix for a week. Haven't had time but trying to fix it now.

Apartment building got a new wi-fi router, so the router doesn't match up with Roku now. I lost original Roku remote and have been using cell phone remote. It detects Roku but will not play it. I know I need to put Roku onto the wi-fi network but can't find option anywhere.

I NEED NETFLIX BACK, HELP ME PLEAAAAASE

It's not gonna happen. Either find your remote, buy one or get a really long ethernet cord.

Pro Tip: Anytime something goes missing it's usually between he cushions.

Edit: You could try changing the wifi settings to the old SSID & PW if you're really desperate....

I'm pretty sure there is a Roku app which turns your phone into a remote

Yeah but you have to have the Roku on the WiFi in order for the phone and the Roku to communicate. Can't get he Roku on the WiFi without the remote.

Started watching undeclared, its good.

Might have to give Rampart a look......I've enjoyed Woody as of late. Wait. That came out wrong....you know what I mean.

Oh man, I still remember his AMAARAMPART.

This was his first answer:

Bob's Burgers continues to be a nightly re-watch for me. I like watching sitcom episodes that I've already watched (repeatedly) nightly before bed. Tops are obviously Sunny, Boondocks, Bob's Burgers.

Also really enjoyed Attack on Titan.

I do the same thing. Used to be family guy and American dad. Now more so bobs burgers and archer

Chromecast was a great purchase of me. My iPhone is the remote and I can watch anything on netflix and/or youtube on my tv.

Watched Primal Fear for the first time. Love Edward Norton as usual. Good watch overall.

I agree as they spent a lot of time this season covering the character's back stories. Without giving anything away I will say that it definitely picks up as you get into the latter episodes.

Sent from my Nexus 7 using 2+2 Forums

Same here. I knew how it ended, but still really enjoyed it.

Out of the furnace is out and great
Christian Bale - Woody Harrellson - Casey Afleck what else needs to be said?

Blue Ruin is available on instant watch. It's one of my favorite films of the year. It's a slow burn revenge thriller with a huge payoff. Made in the spirit of a Coen Brothers film. Highly recommend it.

Watching the Road before it is removed in a few days.

Agreed. Plot was a little weak but A+ acting from everyone.

Watched The Yards. Never heard of it before. Mark Wahlbeg, Charlize Theron, and the Joaquin Phoenix(he always seems to play characters I love to hate). Pretty good.

I'm not remotely an anime fan and I've already watched this show twice. So so good.

I've read great reviews about the British Happy Valley show. Also I didn't realize The Yards was available on Netflix Instant, will watch that.

agreed about the plot but man does woody play the inbred hilbilly to scary perfecttion

just got turned onto foyle's war.
British series about a detective in Britain during WWII.

only a few eps in but so far it's great.
