Netflix Watchlist

EspeciallyTheLies · Post Post #0 (isolation #0) » Thu Feb 12, 2015 6:56 am

What shows are you currently watching that you would suggest?

What movies are up right now that you totally loved?

I just watched Machine, which was interesting. I think Snowpiercer is still up too, which you should watch if you haven't.

Spoiler: Shows I keep on my list pretty much at all times:

Started Archer because a friend asked. Not sold on it yet.

What else?

* Yes I know there's a movie thread and a TV thread, but this is for NETFLIX ONLY STUFF because some of us aren't so fancy with the cable and stuff.

Oo yeah I saw that documentary. I keep suggesting it as an option when the guy and I sit down to watch something together and he always says no.

If you haven't watched Blackfish yet, do it soon! So, so sad. Freaks and Geeks was great I thought, but Derek didn't appreciate it like I thought he would - it's totally his generation. He really liked Prison Break though; he just watched it straight through and I got tired of him hogging the Xbox to do it lol...

Also I liked The Interview! But it was definitely a "high" movie. Watching it sober is dumb. XD

I'll have to check out some of the others I haven't seen. Like Merlin. I see that up there all the time, but I was such a fan of the SciFi mini-series that I thought that one might be kinda hokey in comparison.

hate that show! but i LOVE orange is the new black! i forgot to put that on there.

edit: the only reason i hate it, really, is because i kept trying to watch it high and i could not follow anything that was going on. it was so confusing.

also i really loved how it all came full circle in the end. really beautiful.

EspeciallyTheLies · Post Post #48 (isolation #11) » Mon Feb 16, 2015 4:02 am

Horns looks weird/interesting. I might check it out next time boyfriend is at board games.

I keep suggesting we watch In Bruges and he keeps saying no because Colin Farrell's face is on the cover.

I will probably never get to see it.

Just watched the first half of The Hunt for Red October last night and I love it so far. Can't wait to finish it tonight. Came up because there's some other Jack Ryan movie on with the new Captain Kirk that I wanted to watch but the bf is a huge trekkie and hates the new ST movies and refuses to watch it.

I swear the reasons he has for not wanting to watch interesting-looking movies is so arbitrary.

EspeciallyTheLies · Post Post #50 (isolation #12) » Mon Feb 16, 2015 7:59 am

I hated Clue. Just not my kind of humor, I guess. Speaking of comedy though, The Whole Nine Yards is on, which is one of my favorites!

It's in Chinese but it's a great story.

XD I know but now that we don't work together anymore we only see each other at home and we spend all our time together. I'll just agree to watch his stupid civil war movie if he watches In Bruges with me.

Snatch is on Netflix now! If you've never seen it but liked lock stock and two smoking barrels you will love snatch. same director and similar style. it's a crazy ridiculous action movie about a heist gone wrong. I love this movie.

Nope.

Tarantino can go die in a hole with his awful, try-hard, over the top, "look at me, look how special and unique I am ripping off great people who actually came up with their own styles" bullshit movies I hate them all except Django.

EspeciallyTheLies · Post Post #96 (isolation #24) » Fri Feb 27, 2015 7:17 am

Kill Bill was just a(nother) bad movie (by Tarantino). There are far better things with great female leads available on Netflix. I will take a look at the list later and post them.

EspeciallyTheLies · Post Post #107 (isolation #26) » Wed Apr 22, 2015 3:43 pm

death in paradise is a cute British crime drama/comedy show making huge nods at classic murder mysteries like Sherlock Holmes in a quirky modern setting. it's hilarious

I dunno what episode now. I'll check when I get home. mostly through season 1. not sure if I broke into season 2 yet. I'm at the part where the black archer shows up for a couple episodes.

The characters and their development are interesting and I do think they are very well-written, BUT give me a sense of the premise FIRST so I know how to relate these stories with it. Otherwise I'm just going... "Uh.... so what's the point? What's the message I'm supposed to be getting here?"

3 episodes in and D asked me how the show was and what it was about and I literally could not provide an answer. I have no idea what the show is about.

Currently catching up on Walking Dead (season 5 is up) and Once Upon A Time (season 4 is up) and rewatching Heroes so that by the time I'm done, the new episodes will be available somewhere all at once.
