Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

michael berryman of hills have eyes also in deadly blessing... what was the name of that cult? the hittites?

hutterites?

hutaree?

Or something like Hoop Dreams?

which is expiring in a week, BTW. (as much a reminder to myself as anyone else).

also glad to read of the love for bad boy bubby ... which i used to recommend to all of my cool friends back in the day :D

I've had a copy of Bad Boy Bubby sitting in my laundry room for literally six or so years at this point. It's been by the tool box, and for the life of me I haven't been arsed to either watch it (the name and cover turn me off) or move it. But the love on this thread, plus the praise on the same DVD cover, makes me curious.

Bad Boy Bubby is great. and totally indescribably bizarre.

30 for 30s are up now but it's annoying because they're up as like 30 separate movies instead of a series, so you have to go add each one individually

Any recommendations on 30 for 30?

aw, the new ones aren't available yet.
except for the bartman one. gotta watch that.

i think the one i want to watch most again is "best that never was"

Very interested in the Alabama/Auburn one just cuz my wife is from Birmingham and her Facebook friends are so insane.

gotta watch 2 eskies

That's been up for a while, I think.

ya, i wanna see it again.

2 Escobars is key

Once Were Brothers is p awesome, if you like crying lol

The Woodmans is on Netflix now - haven't seen it yet but it's about Francesca Woodman (promising photographer who killed herself in her early '20s) and her artist parents, I've heard it's quite good

yeah i saw it when it was released, would def recommend

she had an exhibit @ the guggenheim this spring, wanted 2 go but didnt make it

Guru of Go is wildly underrated ITT

wtf @ neo ned

Looking for belonging, young Ned (Jeremy Renner) falls in with a group of neo-Nazi skinheads and soon lands in a mental asylum after getting entangled in a racially driven homicide. But the arrival of a beautiful black woman (Gabrielle Union) -- who believes she's possessed by Adolf Hitler -- sets the stage for an unlikely romance and plants the seeds of Ned's redemption. Cary Elwes also stars in this engaging indie gem.

just noticed prime suspect on there!

iirc it's seasons 2, 4, and 6 for some reason tho

finally!

xp emphasis on 'prime'

er

wait sorry i was trying 2 make an even/odd joek ha

more like nonprime suspect!!!!!

nailed it

hahaha

watched god bless america tonight. very touching.

nice save max

scott: is it actually good?

I finally saw The Lovers on the Bridge last night. A bit of a mess, but *that* scene was just wonderful.

i enjoyed it. kinda like heathers for a new generation. depends on how you feel about watching people being gunned down in a movie theatre though. or the whole i'm mad as hell and i'm not gonna take it anymore theme. i would have liked it s lot more when i was younger. because the idea of killing all the awful people always appeals more when you are younger.

The Turin Horse is now up on Instant.

Also Glengarry Glen Ross, which I admit I've been jonesing to rewatch ever since that thread got revived.

dinosaur island

I cannot fathom watching a stream of Turin Horse

UPDATE:

though labelled as seasons 2, 4, and 6, the series of prime suspect on netflix instant are 1, 2, and 3. no idea why. this company is so fucked sometimes.

"PRIME" suspect, indeed!

well that sux since 6 is the only one of those I haven't seen!

i was just gonna say. i think they must have fucked up the numbers from the episode nos. (last in 1 is 2, last in 2 is 4, etc.).

the other seasons are there too, sort of.

Ladies and Gentlemen...Mr. Leomard Cohen

what does 'sort of' mean?

well, the instant website now shows 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, but all of the actual series are in them, mislabeled and not in the right order. i think that affects how the show player skips through them, too. but if you watch on something else, like an apple tv device, the show's screen lists the actual series in proper order and properly labeled.
