Thank you for this thread :)
It'll give me stuff to play in the background while working tonight.. :)

"grumpy old men" hehe

Charlie Wilsons War was a good movie.

Umm congrats. Maybe you can get to work figuring out the new fangled Itunes thing next.

I was a user for years... I canceled it recently though as I really don't watch much movies anymore.

Pay $1 a month extra and get the Blu-Ray's.

The downloadable movies look like shit on high-def TV's.

yes. but i don't care for browsing movies indexed via the dewey decimal system.

We joined NetFlix when it first came out because our town sold DVD players but you couldn't rent DVDs. LOL We are like member #69.. I'm not kidding.

We have been downloading movies onto our XBox.. they look ok. I don't think we have tried high def ones yet (Hi Adam!). But since we don't always wear our glasses when we watch movies, we probably just can't tell. LOL

OH.. what to watch.. we downloaded Vantage Point, and it was pretty good. I think Don't Mess with the Zohan is in our mailbox.

sure, but actually I am not talking about working, I am talking about how the internet has so much to offer that has nothing to do with work, I don't have enough hours in the day to even come close to taking advantage of it all, entertainment-wise and learning-wise.... I got rid of my tv and don't miss it in the least, but I really don't have enough time in the day to do everything I would like to on the net :2 cents:

...but if it's what you like, that's fine too of course, I just feel like tv is ancient history and I've gone beyond that years ago :2 cents:

50 videos you'll keep for 2 months...

I've had a subscription for two years and I've watched 3 movies...lol.

If you like movies though it seems great.

not another teen movie http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0277371/

Even the commercials for that movie made me want to stab that dude in the face. My fiance made me watch it one night and I had the same reaction. Complete and utter crap.

Have you utilized the "Watch Instantly" feature of Netflix? That is true bliss.

If you like documentaries try out:

A Very British Gangster
Mario's Story
Man On Wire
The King Of Kong

Just got it today. No. Doubt I will to be honest.

Thanks

I see lots of talk about downloading movies on Netflix.

You can not Download anything - You can stream and watch instantly

I use the "watch instantly" feature and it is great although they don't have a very good selection of new movies. They do however have a great selection of TV shows.

I setup my netflix long ago prior to Roku being available so I have a dedicated computer hooked up to the TV just for Netflix streaming :)

I should just step up and start using my Xbox 360 so I can watch HD movies :helpme

Baddog - I am sure you will enjoy your Netflix service :thumbsup

You bastards are putting Blockbuster out of business..

HOW DO YOU SLEEP AT NIGHT?!

I heard Panasonic or some shit is going to have Netflix built into the tv... Ballllllliiinnnnn...

See you in a few hours.

They look like shit on my TV, HD w/ Xbox 360 setup.

I only tried streaming two, and they both looked horrible, so I gave up on that.

You mean the company that ended its late fees and put everyone else out of business, just to start charging late fees again? Fuck Blockbuster.

I got the cable for our laptop to tv and started watching those movies they have on demand, and its really cool.

I find that I forget about returning movies, or waiting on them when I feel like watching something so the instant watch actually rules.

It would be much cooler if they had better movies though.

i got some links to porn sites with free trials, you wanna check them out???

is that about real bikers or just guys who claim to be bikers because they own a harley and a leather jacket?

Well Michael Madsen is such a bad ass biker he doesn't even wear a leather jacket in much of it, just his trademark black blazer.

"One, Two, Three."

Billy Wilder had the balls to shoot a movie in divided Berlin right before the wall went up, telling a story of Coca-Cola executive Jimmy Cagney who gets stuck hosting the daughter of the president of Coca-Cola (he's sending her through Europe, mooching off Coke bottlers) who falls in love with a young Communist. Cagney has to shape the kid up before the girl's dad -- his boss -- gets there.

Cagney is in his element here as the harried executive who never stops yelling. Great support by a talented cast, crisp black-and-white widescreen photography.

I got into an argument with my college writing teacher about the pace. he thought it was too fast. The guy wrote for the Marx brothers, he knew his stuff, but I thought it was fast -- but not TOO fast.

Check it out.

Band of Brothers - Full series..

Tropic Thunder (very funny)
Religulous
30 Rock (all seasons!)

i'd say real bikers but the flick is quite campy/cheesy. tarantino produced it as a 60s style biker exploitation film, it's ridiculous fun.

Boondock Saints...

The Crow...

Thank You For Smoking...

Idiocracy...

just a few local favs.

Good choice joining Netflix. They are really good with turnaround time too.

If I had an xbox I might do the streaming option, but my work station is too far away from my TV to run a cable.

:1orglaugh

I can't see myself renting TV shows.

Thanks, forgot about that one.

Boondock Saints is always good for another view.

Your loss, Band of Brothers is better than 95% of the shit burgers mentioned in this thread.

We have been using netflix for the last year and its ok.
Tip. if you want to get the new releases in your mailbox on Tuesday then send back one you have on saturday morning, and move the film you want for Tuesday to the top of your list monday morning.

Anything on Bluray. I get lots of and TV on DVD titles.
