Hey... at least I'm posting.

And thank you, that was delicious.

While I had Netflix, I found them to be fine.  But then the movies were just piling up and we were never watching them, so I cancelled it.  It seems I need the pressure of late fees in order to watch dvds.

Alice

Piling up?  How many did you take out at a time?

I have Blockbuster Total Access

They are roughly the same price.  Blockbuster gives you access to the store as well as the internet queue.  This is a major bonus, as sometimes I don't want to wait or others don't want to see my odd movies.  However, Netflix does have a wider selection of semi-obscure films.  Or if they don't have the film, they at least recognize it and will save it if they ever do.  SEE example Battle Royale or Inland Empire. 

I have been waiting forever to get Season 1 of Wondershozen from Blockbuster, but there is a long queue...

Alice

Anybody have any good suggestions?

Alice

Because I want the last episode of Six Feet Under, Netflix is recommending all these gay movies for me to watch.  Because I like a show with a gay character - I must want to watch as many gay movies as possible. 

I'm not so sure I agree with some of their recommendations based on other films.  Another example:

Three Stooges: Dizzy Doctors

Recommended because you enjoyed: Dawn of the Dead, Dirty Dozen



WTF?  Did they recommend that because I like movies that have two D words in them?

Bishamonten

Devil's Backbone
Infernal Affairs
Twilight Samurai

I watched disk one of the new Dr. Who Season 1 in one sitting (I think Bish recommended it) and am waiting on disk two to arrive.

Yes, be my Netflix buddy.  I already am buddies with Jessie and her manwhore.

This is kind of addictive.

Beefy, I sent you an invite to join my friends page!

Also, I really like that you can look through your friend's queues.

Jessie

When I first got Netflix, I rated a lot of movies.  That's why I have an insane amount of movies in my queue.

Who else is on there that I'm not Netflix friends with?  Dazie?
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

:)  Done.  That gives me 2 friends.  You and Marixis.  Except I think I can't see his list.  Hrm.

I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

Too bad you can't put stuff in your friends' queues. Imagine the possibilities.

Maybe I'll convert to Netflix just to hang with the cool kids.
