It's pretty great. I saw it when I was much younger though so I can't honestly say how well it will hold up. Some old movies hold up extremely well while others are absolutely snore-fests to new viewers.
BUT.. I would say it's worth a watch just for the pop culture gold mine that it is.

With all the talk about Snowpiercer, I gave it a watch last night. I have mixed feelings on it, but overall, I thought it was a good movie.
I never heard of the movie before someone mentioned it in here. The concept was really interesting and I thought they did a great job with it. The movie shined in the first half, but I felt the second half was a bit of a let down. Well, everything after the awesome
The second half wasn't helped out by its ending. I mean, I could kinda see where things were going after they had
Even with its flaws, I think it is worth the watch.

Still holds up really well. Even nearly 25 years later its still an incredibly violent and gory film. Rob Bottin's gore and squib effects are second to none.
Also there isnt nearly enough cold/snow related movies. I think that gave it a few extra bonus points for me
Also ive been checking out what they have for Bizarre Foods, is all the travel channel shows that just came just 25 ep collections?

Snowpiercer deserves al the praise in this thread, and more. Absolutely fantastic movie.

Watched the first half of Chevy Chase's Modern Problems and then fell asleep for the second half. The parts I saw were okay (the intro was pretty funny) but I have no desire to watch the parts that I missed. Meh.
The Triplets of Belleville (78 min)

I fell asleep during Snowpiercer. I expected it to be different. That's about all I got out of it.
That movie used to weird me out when I was a kid.

They're the original Sky1 versions; much better than the ones aired on the Science Channel in the US.

is the americans season two up anywhere?
RatskyWatsky
Hunky Nostradamus
I don't think it's available for streaming yet, but when it is, it'll be on Amazon Instant since I think they have the exclusive streaming rights.
Thank you very much, google gave no clear answer after looking.
The Red Balloon. This isn't a suggestion, it's a strong recommendation. And it's only like 45min max.
edit: never mind, it's not up anymore
Both are on netflix germany, they're listed as the last two episodes of season 7.

They're both on Netflix US as well. They were added over the summer.
Lost for Life: Had potential, basically surrounds under 18 and those that are sent to prison for life without parole. I felt it could've been a lot more interesting though. It was an ok doc
Doug Benson: Decent comedy but i felt he was too baked for his own good filming this.

It's based on a book, which the anime also was, and several other movies and manga:

I just finished season 1 earlier today and gotta say that I like that show a lot. It started off enjoyable but just got better and better as it went along. Season finale was damn good.
Reminds me of LOST, Battlestar Galactica, and Lord of the Flies. That's certainly a good combo for entertaining TV.

The combo of shows mentioned has me interested, maybe I should check this out.
Watching the first episode of Fringe right now
Don't judge Fringe on it's first season. They really didn't know what they wanted to do yet, but by the middle of season 2, to the end of season 3 is some of the best stuff ever.

The 100 actually starts off a bit.. CW-tropish if that makes sense. And it does have the typical romance jargon. But if you can push through the first 3 eps or so (or if you enjoy those eps) then it picks up and pushes the pace the whole way through.

Still on the first episode, but seems pretty interesting. Plus the female lead is pretty attractive ...
And the guy from Dawson creek is in this....
And then it turned to shit with season 4,
I thought the timeline would be fixed after a few episodes but it wasn't, the characters we knew had ceased to exist, permanently replaced by versions of a universe where Peter died as a kid, fuck you Fringe!
dumping the red universe and Lincoln Lee and basically creating a spin-off starring Peter and the season 4 alternates, the changed the entire premise of the show, it wasn't even about Fringe sciences anymore.
It's like the writers looked at season 3 and thought "Look, we have something that really works and produced some awesome television, we have wonderful characters with incredible chemistry, a rich history with each other and a great mystery going ... let's change that".

I kind of liked seasons four and five of Fringe, five more so than four.
Yeah Season 3 is great, the show last few years are just ok but watchable because of Walter (John Noble).

Yea, season five was pretty damn good. I liked 4 a lot too. But I get why others don't like them.
I would agree with this.
Also, I call The CW the "Beautiful People Doing Heroic Things Network" or BPHTN.
