if you do watch dr. who I would start with the last two doctors, they're the only ones I really enjoy (dont know seasons or episodes wikipedia can help)

[Edited on January 20, 2013 at 12:27 AM. Reason : this comes from someone completely new to the show, dont hate me nerds]

1/20/2013 12:26:34 AM

if i'm gonna watch ANY show i'm gonna watch it from the pilot on

i know people where i'm like "yeah the wire is awesome" or "yeah you should check out dexter" and they're like "i watched a few minutes of a couple episodes and couldnt get into it" and i'm like no shit, cause you jumped into it without the background

of course because of that i took those same peoples' advice about "oh The League is great" or "check out It's Always Sunny, its fucking hilarious" as skeptical because of their own skepticism, even though both those shows are great

1/20/2013 12:29:46 AM

ya, I'm the same way. hence why I've been watching black and white episodes of dr. who lol

BUT, my hook was that i watched a few of the new episodes and was intrigued enough to start from the beginning

TT you watched Snuff Box?

1/20/2013 2:38:28 AM

1/20/2013 3:54:29 PM

I enjoyed Craigslist Joe.

"I saw that Primer was on there earlier. It's worth a watch if you've never seen it and it sounds remotely interesting to you."

I watched that like four times and still have no idea what the hell was going on.

Watched Craigslist Joe last weekend, was good. I also watched a documentary on Auschwitz, it was horrifying but interesting... honestly scarier than any movie in the Netflix horror section.

1/23/2013 9:37:05 AM

anybody seen Homerun Showdown? i might watch that kids baseball movie right now

1/24/2013 10:44:42 PM

watched Bernie, really liked it.

Also watched Ek Tha Tiger. Its like the bollywood James Bond. Not bad, some of the scenes were so bad it was really really funny. I actually recommend it.

1/24/2013 10:49:23 PM

^^good feel-good movie...lol how everybody hates the commissioner

1/25/2013 12:30:00 AM

dunno how long they've been on netflix, but they have multiple seasons of Always Sunny on netflix streaming...thats definitely filled my tv show void

1/27/2013 12:48:50 AM

Watched Bernie last night. It was great.

And has anyone seen Whisker Wars? It's all about "bearding" (beard growing). You can find a show about anything.

1/27/2013 8:05:03 AM

Might have to turn in my man card, but I enjoyed "after the wedding" recently

1/27/2013 8:34:14 AM

Jim Jefferies: Fully Functional

do recommend

1/27/2013 9:07:31 PM

Watched Clue tonight per my wifes recommendation. Pretty good

1/27/2013 9:24:50 PM

just watched the trailer to House of Cards (Netflix original series starring Kevin Spacey as a US Congressman...comes out on February 1st...looks pretty good

wonder if it will be a 6 episode season like Lilyhammer

i really wanted to laugh, but i just couldn't. i felt like most of his jokes were told purely for shock value, in the hopes that your "OMG DID HE REALLY JUST SAY THAT" would result in nervous awkward laughter.

no thanks!

1/28/2013 2:17:23 AM

^ yeah i could see how females or religious people wouldnt like it

1/28/2013 7:37:23 AM

last week to watch "peep show". it ends 2/1/13

1/28/2013 5:35:01 PM

watching craigslist joe right now


20 minutes left, and I don't know if I can take anymore.


I mean it's a one-note beat... and the guy is pretty unlikeable. The whole premise bothers me.



OH, also started Sunny. I can't believe I've slept on this show for so long. Hilarious.

I watched "Butter" the other night. It was okay.

1/31/2013 11:25:19 AM

what I appreciated about Butter is that it didn't try to get serious. Some movies like that try to go from being somewhat whimsical to having some sort of moral or high ground all of a sudden in the third act. And it didn't really try to go that route.

1/31/2013 5:38:14 PM

Ferris Bueller's Day Off

2/2/2013 10:48:06 AM

House of Cards is outstanding.

2/2/2013 9:56:00 PM

^

2/2/2013 10:03:22 PM

watching Street Fighter Alpha: The Movie

pretty good so far, if you liked the video games

2/8/2013 1:52:00 AM

Could not stop watching House of Cards.

Also, check out Zeitgeist

2/8/2013 7:53:30 AM

I watched Bronson last night per the recommendations in this post. Good movie, not great, but can appreciate Tom Hardy's acting chops. It's a little out there though, and had a touch of Stanley Kubrick feel to it.

Dear Zachary


Holy crap why did i watch this on a great afternoon. Now I'm sad and depressed.

Watch if you want an emotional doc that plays out like a crime thriller.

2/9/2013 2:46:13 PM

Adventures of TinTin - awesome

Jeff Who Lives at Home - not bad




Ondine - Irish film from 2009 with Colin Farrell. Very good. Really enjoyed it and do recommend it.
On the coast of Cork, Syracuse is a fisherman, on the wagon, living alone. His precocious daughter, Annie, about 10, has failing kidneys. One day, a nearly-drowned young woman comes up in his net; she speaks oddly, calls herself Ondine, and wants no one to see her. He puts her up in an isolated cottage that was his mother's. Annie discovers Ondine's presence and believes she's a selkie, a mythical seal turned human while on land. If this is a fairy tale, is there a happily ever after, or do the realities of alcohol, illness, and worse intrude, including Syracuse's inveterate bad luck? As his priest tell him, misery's easy, it's happiness you have to work at..

2/13/2013 9:21:04 AM

I thought Jeff who lives at home sucked absolute horse cock

2/13/2013 9:30:01 AM

it was not at all what i expected.

2/13/2013 10:18:15 AM

I watched it expecting a step brothersesque type comedy

Yeah, not so much

2/13/2013 11:54:03 AM

they should have called it "Jeff's Brother is a tool bag"

Schoolgirl Hitchikers

hilariously bad 70's soft core. bad acting, bad plot. nice TNA though

2/13/2013 6:29:45 PM

i never got more than about 10-15 minutes into that Street Fighter animated movie

but i'm about 20-30 minutes into Nacho Libre, (Jack Black as a Mexican wrestler) and its pretty damn funny

2/15/2013 2:42:11 AM

the original Naked Gun movie is on streaming

if for some insane reason you've never seen it, you should watch it

2/17/2013 12:19:07 AM

FROM THE FILES OF POLICE SQUAD

Motorcycle Diaries (Probably has been recommended before). Its about Che and the adventure he took with his friend riding across South America. The trip is believed to have developed his first political ideals but the movie focuses on Che and his adventure more so than politics. Fantastic movie.

2/17/2013 3:01:43 AM

Steamboat Bill Jr

2/20/2013 12:34:08 PM

Exit Humanity (I think that's the name) - zombie flick set during civil war. Pretty entertaining.

2/20/2013 2:52:54 PM

The Man From Nowhere

badass action thriller from Korea, really awesome fight scene towards the end. Well worth your time IMO.

2/22/2013 8:06:35 PM

Just watched "The Giant Mechanical Man" and thought it was pretty good.

3/1/2013 9:22:29 PM

Heartbreaker

I watched it last night. I give it 5 stars!

3/2/2013 11:04:40 AM

3/3/2013 1:42:27 PM
