Decent month. I'll add a few of those. I like that Disney's partnership with Netflix is driving some of their recent stuff to the service. The Jungle Book at the end of Nov and the new Alice in January. Stuff I didn't go the theatre to see but might stream.

Cap America this month too.

 

[Tall4Life]

Some good-ass movies leaving next month like Dazed and Confused, total shame. Gonna marathon some of those before the month is over

The fact that GOAT Christmas movie Die Hard is unavailable to stream right now is a travesty against all humanity.

 

[TOM f'N CRUISE]

after seeing it on Netflix all the time i finally watched Colony... i like it. Lori from The Walking Dead is on it and still annoys the living shit out of me but other then that its right up my ally

 

[Gray Matter]

Bates motel...YES!!!

I always forget about it unit the latest season hits be Netflix lol

I got around to watching The Jungle Book, and it was another level of suck I wasn't prepared for. I remember people being pretty high on it too, and I couldn't have thought less of it. The child actor was brutal throughout especially amidst all the expressionless CG animal voice boxes. It all just seemed unnecessarily bad.

 

[LeonSPBR]

Watching White Rabbit, seems fun, just started the first episode, but I don't feel the Mythbusters vibe at all.

Is this new netflix thing Dirk Gently's any good??

Ouch. I haven't watched it yet.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Netflix is such a fantastic service. I just watched The Jungle Book for the first time the other day and damn I was not prepared for how magnificent it was. The color, the beauty, the emotion. Disney proves that they're ain't one to fuck with.


I also started watching Celia. It's about this girl becoming a singer in Cuba. It's based on a real life person actually. I'm so moved by it and it sucks to feel like I'm the only one who cares about it. Mentioned it in a couple other threads and no reply, but I want to talk about it with someone. IT'S SO GOOD!

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

You should, Madoka Magica is really fantastic. Pretty sure they have all of the movies up on Netflix at the moment as well.
Moribito is also worth checking out if you liked Kenshin. Sort of similar premise but the art is gorgeous.

I've been watching moribito and I am pretty far in. I gotta say I liked the first couple episodes. The middle was pretty decent. But the story is just a little too unexciting. There seems to be a lot to the world that just isn't being touched on.

Does netflix have the full series?

edit:Oh wow it expired like 24 hours ago... oh well...

 

[Tekniqs]

soooooo...fresh prince coming to Netflix UK/Ireland...any word on US?

 

[rainking187]

Are we going to get more recent animated Disney movies on Netflix? I'm not that interested in the live action stuff.

Some new HDR stuff added with the update, it seems:

Daredevil Season 2
Jessica Jones

 

[BlackGhost]

So watched Barry just now, I enjoyed. Are we getting more? Wouldn't mind if they followed him more later in life

 

[hardcastlemccormick]

Oh wow, The OA is a Brit Marling/Zal Batmanglij joint? I loved their movies. This completely blindsided me! Can't wait for this.

 

[kuppy]

It's quite off topic but I'm way too happy about this.
Seinfeld is now on the German Amazon Prime Video, in English! Actually the UK just got it, too. As appear to have all of the newly added Amazon Prime Video countries, which seems to be the reasoning behind this.

So yeah. If you are mad about the fact that Hulu has the exclusive rights over in the US. Maybe give Amazon Prime Video UK or Germany a try (e.g. download the app through a specific PSN account). They have a free trial month so you only have to pay for a proxy or you end up doing a bunch of trials of that as well.


In Netflix related topics.
Recently watched The Killing, which I liked. The first season was especially great. Very much appreciated that this adaption stuck with the tone and mood of the original, a nice change of pace for an American series. Way to end up making a very unusual, promising character ultimately one note by the end of it. Kind of a bummer as you watch more and more of it.

Now watching Californication. There sure is a lot of sex in this, huh? It's interesting though, characters are quite flat and the fact that everyone is into openly talking about sex is something that would have turned me away a couple of years ago. Now I feel like that represents less bad writing (although that still is existing -

Spoiler

jesus, way to make a joke out of Marcy actually being raped

) and more just one perspective that the writers chose to set this in. It being less of a representation and more of an interpretation.
Anyway, I didn't know I could love David Duchovny so much. Still perplexed that I totally see him as Hank in this and not at all as Fox Mulder. Let's hope this Showtime series didn't get too bad in its later seasons, hah.

 

[StopMakingSense]

Let's hope this Showtime series didn't get too bad in its later seasons, hah.

Needless to say, it takes a nosedive in the later seasons.

 

[kuppy]

Needless to say, it takes a nosedive in the later seasons.

Yeah, it's too sad. I'm on season four now and the Showtime logo just changed. I very much associate that chime with those bad Dexter seasons.

Dislike ratio seems high for some reason.

OT: Brooklyn Nine-Nine S3 is up, finally. yesssssssssss

 

[metalslimer]

Finally started watching the crown and holy shit at the soundtrack. I legitimately think that is half my enjoyment of the show. Netflix has been amazing this year.

I've as yet been unable to find a full list for the UK January 2017. The bad news is while not much is leaving at the moment, it does include some good stuff (Firefly, some of the more popular animes, House). And I suspect more will be announced closer to the New Year...

Good news is Hunt for the Wilderpeople goes up at some point according to the new Radio Times, and I've seen Under the Shadow listed somewhere too.

 

[Maklershed]

As you can tell from my avatar I'm a bit biased but The Moaning of Life is exceptional. Loving it. I also love that it's like 15 years on now from Karl's XFM days and he's STILL battling with his boiler.

 

[IISANDERII]

I'm not in this thread much nor is it often I rate 5 stars on my Netflix so I just had to pop in and recommend this Argentine film Wild Tales.

Not one long film but rather it's 6 short films with one common theme: Revenge. It's mostly a dark comedy and it had us bursting out laughing sometimes, melancholy in others and much in between. Filled with twists and turns, it keeps you guessing.

My girlfriend and I were browsing Netflix and just thought we'd watch a bit then find something else but the first story had us hooked and we watched them all. The first story is only 5min, give it a try.

Oh and it has the best wedding/post wedding scene ever filmed.

 

[sdijoseph]

This is slightly off-topic, but I have a question: Can anyone think of a good solution to stream Netflix, HBO GO, and Amazon Prime video to a computer monitor that accepts only DVI input (from a device such as a Roku/ChromeCast)? I ask this because streaming HBO GO directly from a PC has pretty poor streaming quality.

 

[Jack Scofield]

As you can tell from my avatar I'm a bit biased but The Moaning of Life is exceptional. Loving it. I also love that it's like 15 years on now from Karl's XFM days and he's STILL battling with his boiler.

I started watching this show a few days ago. I LOVE An Idiot Abroad, but it almost feels like Karl is playing a character in this show. He feels much more self-aware. Also, the Art episode was terrible.

I miss putting on episodes of Doctor who while I played WoW

If you enjoyed the next level animation in Moana, The Jungle Book will also blow you away. The story may be familiar to many, but what the Disney animators are doing these days is insane. Uncanny valley / 5.

Started Daredevil. pretty good so far.

Any impressions on Del Toro's new show troll hunters yet?

 

[Levi]

The British horror comedy series Crazyhead was worth. Plot is stupid but it's consistently funny.

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

Started Daredevil. pretty good so far.

Any impressions on Del Toro's new show troll hunters yet?

First impression was it's adequate and kind of what you would expect. Episode 2 lifted that up a bit. I'm not done episode 2 so pretty rough impression so far.

I've never heard of it before, but I know the entire movie after seeing the thumbnail.
