Will do. Sounds interesting and I need a new show to watch.

Season 2 of "Mind of a Chef" was recently added to da queue.

Mad Max and Rocky 1 thru 5 added

watched both the Battered Bastards of Baseball and Senna...both really solid sports documentaries

Movies available on Netflix that are in IMDB's top 250 list.

The actors in those shows (the fall, Sherlock, and the like) are part of what makes those shows so good. Unfortunately that also makes for busy schedules so they can't really churn seasons yearly as American shows do.

has anyone seen the doc "street thief"? its the story of casper karr and its really cool and intense. when i clicked on it, i didn't really see myself getting past the first 10 minutes. an hour and a half later i was left wanting more. check it out.

I saw it at the Chicago Film Festival years ago. Very well made and entertaining. That theater they robbed in the burbs was the one I went to often. The rest I'll have to put in spoilers...

i think it's pretty good.

Same. If I had to grade the seasons it would be something like S1- B+, S2- D, S3- B-.

Midway through S4 and it may be my favorite season. So far I'd give it a solid A- but there's no way you can watch S4 without seeing S3 first.

S2 was so terrible I only finished it for the same reasons. S3 got kind of ridiculous from a plot continuity perspective in the middle and ends on a pretty huge cliff hanger which is a pet peeve of mine.

All that being said I'd still recommend it to someone who likes crime dramas and lacks anything better to watch.

I've always felt like SoA was made with female audiences in mind. Like they wanted to make a romantic drama with a biker gang element added after the fact to draw in male viewers. It's got it all, a handsome broken man dealing with endless family drama resulting from his own poor choices and luck. I've watched a few eps here and there but it seems to just be the same thing over and over again... Bike gang does crime -> family effected negatively -> resolution and make up sex while foreshadowing the next crime that will negatively effect family.

+1 to Battered Bastards of Baseball. I hate baseball but it's a great doc, I also was struck by the soundtrack which I felt was quite good.

Anyone can give a short review of 'Southcliffe', seemed to get mixed reviews but came up on my recommendations.

just watched this, if anyone else has seen it can you help me understand part of the movie

see spoiler

i watched it a while back. don't remember exactly but i remember thinking he was set-up in some way on that. whatever it's phony anyway.

Watched it around 5 years ago but IIRC

I enjoy the show "I shouldn't be alive". It's shows reenacted depictions of people who survived various life-threatening scenarios, combined with first-hand interviews. Ends up being slightly repetitive, but if you enjoy survivalist shows, this is a great watch.

Along these lines is the show "Infested!". A series documenting various critters invading people's lives and homes. Incredibly disturbing but compelling.

Rounders has been (re?) added to instant queue.

****ing sweet!!

Street Thief:




Really, really good movie. Was quite gripping and the guy playing Karr did a terrific job.

Gonna watch Hook and Jumanji tonight in honor of Robin Williams.

What other Robin Williams movies are on netflix?

Popeye
Fisher King
Birdcage
Get Bruce
Worlds greatest Dad <-- suicide topic
The Big Wedding

Thanks man. When I searched Robin Williams on netflix, it searched "titles related to robin williams stand up" and nothing came up.

He was absolutely brilliant in The Fisher King, and my son and I watched Aladin more than any other movie when he was growing up.

Man, world's greatest dad is one ****ed up movie.

Speaking of which, go watch Death to Smoochy if you haven't yet

Saw that in the theater, laughed my ass off. Bought DVD the day it came out.

One Hour Photo is a great watch

Neither of those are on Netflix USA, correct?
