Europa Report was pretty sweet. Just started House of Cards and it's pretty compelling

I stopped using it as soon as they started spraying ads all over my web pages.
Unblock-us is well worthy of the small amount it costs.
I watched the documentary The Square last night. Pretty damn good. One thing that really blew me away was the cinematography. Beautiful shots throughout the film. As for the doc itself, it gives you insight and first hand accounts of the protests. You could see the passion that the people had. It is powerful stuff and you become invested in their stories. It is also emotional. I teared up once or twice while watching it.
This documentary should definitely be watched. If only for the cinematography alone. There are some gory images (mostly from stock news footage) so just a heads up.

Hansel and Gretel was super ridiculous, but for some reason i thought it'd take itself more seriously. glad it didn't. I was legit laughing out loud at some of the stuff, not sure if it was intentional or not but it doesn't really matter, it was fun

The main character is one of the most infuriating characters I've ever watched. Make up your damn mind about what you're gonna do Eren.
Random question. I know you can watch shows from other territories on my laptop using VPN's like hola unblocker. I was wondering if there was a way I could do something like that on my PS3. I wanna watch Season 4 of Archer and it's not on the US Netflix and I hate watching Netflix on my laptop.

Whoa. How do I go about doing that. I thought Hola Unblocker only works on Chrome?
Usually whenever Unblock is mentioned, it Unblock Us. The one that is $5 monthly. Sorry to get your hopes up!
Netflix UK has The League Season 5!
Sweetness!

Thanks though. I'll look into that. Seems like there is a 1 week trial
I love the service. You can use it practically on any device. The only device which is a pain in the ass to set up is Roku. Other than that, you are switching some settings and are good to go. $5 monthly is a steal.

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
It's something I might actually watch again at some point... better than I was expecting.
I watched Rise Of The Guardians last night. I thought it was pretty good; the animation was slick, there was a decent mix of action, drama and comedy and the the plot was actually pretty decent, and not tailored to fit just the little 'uns. I thoroughly recommend it.
Currently watching Jack Reacher right now - again, pretty decent action flick. Tom Cruise seems to be in Ethan Hunt mood throughout the film which is nothing short of great.

The Following is not bad. I enjoyed season one enough to check in to season two. I wouldn't put it up there with, say, House of Cards but, I would definitely check it out.
Also, if you get the chance and want to see some good thriller/gore check out Pathology. I went in expecting nothing and it ended up being a 4 star movie for me.

Been watching Dexter, on s3. Pretty good
How did I manage to avoid Breaking Bad this long? Halfway through season 2, and man, the characters and storytelling are so good. I have no idea how this is all going to go down though. I've watched like 5 episodes in the last two days, which is something I almost never do.
You're in for a hell of a ride, mane.
I watched the first episode, and I think I'm going to keep going. Interesting enough to go through a handful of episodes.
Added Pathology to my q.
I really enjoyed the first two seasons, but S3 really dragged to me. I keep meaning to watch S4 just to see Lithgow, but I think I'll drop it after that. I've heard too much disappointment about the later seasons.

The first half of season 3 dragged for me, but I really liked the back half when
Dexter was taking Miguel under his wing and couldn't control him.
Season 4 is fantastic though. I never bothered with seasons after that though, even if Edward James Olmos shows up.

Great time to get into the show too. The rest of BB will be up next month.

You're in for a great ride. Unlike some shows it really just gets better as it goes
I finished House of Cards today and decided to give the original BBC version a go. Netflix USA crops the 4:3 non-HD source to fit 16:9, with ugly results. The UK site has the original aspect ratio. Amazon Prime also has the correct format. I haven't watched much old TV on Netflix, but I hope this is an exception and not the standard.
I watched the UK version on Netflix shortly after marathoning the US version when it came out and don't remember it being 16:9, could've sworn it was 4:3.
And yeah I imagine the UK version does spoil what will happen in the US version, but say la vee. It's kinda interesting how different the two shows are in tone.

Give it another watch again. Bout to finish Farscape. Got peacekeeper wars on DVD so will complete the series. May give breaking bad a shot as well.
I watched Schooled, a documentary about the NCAA.
Jeez, didn't know college football/basketball were THAT big, I mean, 170k people in a stadium for a Florida State University football match? Holy shit!
But ofcourse the big ''holy shit'' was the fact that players don't get paid a dime while it's a bilion dollar industry...
''Yeah you get education and a dorm room, STFU''
Really fucked up.

There's some lawsuits going on at this moment, hope it will work out.
Compensation of college athletes is happening.

I thoroughly enjoyed this - it's cheesy, knows not to take itself too seriously, features a bunch of classic British TV actors/actresses & has the right amount of ridiculousness.

The original or the remake?
Sorry, the '76 version.

Good to know, always worth a rewatch.
That's awesome to hear guys. At the end of season 2 right now and it's still fantastic. All of these characters are great even if they are morally deplorable. I only wish I'd watched when it aired so I could join in the discussion.
Yep, I'm starting the 5th season, I don't know why it took me so long to watch it since I loved The Office (thanks to Netflix also).

Eh. I'll go ahead and play Devil's Advocate but I got bored somewhere towards the end of season 2, the show started to drag in season 3, and I stopped watching halfway through season 4. Not really sure what people see in this show but literally everyone and their mother has told me to finish it. Can't be bothered though.

Love this show so much. Can't wait for a new season to be added.
