Yep, one of my favourites as well. Really unexpected.

End of Watch is really excellent. If you like Southland or Training Day don't miss it.

Hellgate (Horror, Supernatural)
Bangkok Revenge (Action, Martial Arts, Foreign)

Into the Wild was a great film. I'm a big fan of Emile. I thought he knocked it out of the park.

Nice
I'm still on season 2
Season 2 is amazing.
I've been marathoning season 2 today. Don't know why it took me so long to really watch all of Arrested Development. I remember bits and pieces of it from catching an odd episode here and there but had never seen all of the series.
Dammit.
I usually watch shows/movies with subtitles on, so it doesn't bother me. I can see how it can be annoying though. Sweden does the same thing.

So I just got an account 2 days ago to watch Arrested Development's Season 4, and I've gotta say, I'm incrediblt disappointed in Netflix, as a service. I tried searching for some movies to test the library, and after 20 Unavailables in a row (I tried a varied range of stuff, going from classics like City Lights, Metropolis, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Casablanca, Gone With The Wind or The Treasure Of Sierra Madre, to modern blockbusters like Inception, Avengers or Superbad, and all the way through modern classics like Donnie Darko, Se7en, There Will Be Blood or The Departed) I'm completely disappointed... Wasn't it supposed to have almost everything or something? Is it that lacking or did I just get unlucky? oO Only on my 21st search did it produce a result (Intolerance).
It does seem to be somewhat good for documentary shows though, or maybe I got lucky, as my first 3 searches were all there (Seven Up, Cosmos, Blue Planet)... although unfortunately World At War (which I've been dying to see) isn't available.
What gives? Isn't Netflix supposed to be the king of movies? I don't get it. oO

There's only so much stuff Netflix can license with your $7.99 subscription. Especially now that the studios know how lucrative the streaming market is. There was a time when Netflix was able to license lots of content for cheap(like the Starzs deal) but those days are over. Lately it seems Netflix has been emphasizing TV shows.
Use InstantWatcher to see new releases. Stuff comes in and out of Netflix all the time.

You are really kind of stuck with whatever they have available. Dunno what you were expecting. Nobody ever said that streaming had "almost everything". I got over that a while ago and have been able to find many hidden gems. There is certainly a high amount of shit movies, but there is a lot of great stuff if you look. For me the amount of amazing TV series available to watch at any moment makes it totally worth it in the end.
Try and browse by genre, and stop dissapointing yourself by searching for movies you want to be there. You might even find something cool you didn't know you wanted.

You had some high expectations with some of those movies (and some were on streaming, but were taken down over the past year). Netflix is king of tv shows with some good movies here and there for good measure.
If you are willing to shell out an additional $5 for Unblock Us (or any VPN service), you can watch some your searches:
Donnie Darko- Canada/Mexico
There Will Be Blood- Canada/UK/Mexico/Sweden
Superbad- Canada/UK/Mexico
The Departed- Mexico
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest- Mexico
Gone With The Wind- Sweden

I guess I just expected more because here in Portugal we have a a similar service that has more stuff than Netflix and is completely free and legal (because loopholes)... and it doesn't even have video ads (yeah, I'm looking at you, Hulu). And since Netflix is such a big name I just kind of expected more.
Basically, by what you guys are saying, count me out as soon as the free month ends.
I expected alot more emphasis on FLIX, not tv shows. I've seen pretty much every TV show I wanted to (lots and lots of free time these last 3 years).Whenever a service comes along that has pretty much everything, I'll bite (of course, I expect a mugh higher price, like 30$/month or something), until then I'll stick to my guns.
I'm very big on standardization, hate having to use multiple services for the same type of product... (yeah, I hate the gaming industry for making me buy 2 or 3 different consoles every gen if I want in... Fucking hate oligarchies =/ ).

Wait, what? oO Don't different countries need different accounts (and different payments)?
I'm in Europe, so I'm already using Media Hint anyway (it's free and simpler than other services if you're watching on a PC, which I am).

Not with unblock us they don't.
I also use it on my PC, it works great.
They have a 7 day free trial with no credit card required. Just try it and see if you like it.

'because loopholes'
I smell another allofmp3.com situation.
Except we're such a small and unimportant country it'll never amount to anything. Seriously, after a ridiculous amount of attempts to close it down, the authorities just stopped caring, they can't do anything, because it's all perfectly legal. Not that I support it, I don't use it because it has hardsubs in Portuguese on everything. But being aware of it made Netflix feel underwhelming as hell.
I pretty much expected Netflix to be Spotify for movies, lol.
You have to think of Netflix as more of an on demand cable network. Sometimes you'll catch things in syndication on the network and sometimes they won't be on there for a while again. It's even better that they're doing new series now....so they're kind of like an A&E or USA.

I'm living on 600$ a month here, 300$ of which are for rent, I can't exactly afford to keep pilling up these little expenses. I'm affraid disposable income is no longer a reality outside of the G8. =/
I'm not saying it's not an awesome service, it is! Especially for such a low price. I just had unrealistic expectations, lol.
You've just reminded me I haven't finished Sandman yet... I'll have to get on it.

Well then just use it for a week for the free trial to watch the movies you want to watch in other regions. There's no way to charge you after the 7 days.

Oh, no, that was just a library test. I have all of those. I'm huge film buff. That's where most of my money goes (hooray for the second hand market). Plus, I live near a cinematheque, so I pretty much have access to everything already. I'm one of those annoying guys who get all excited about and organize Bela Tarr marathons... I am, however, not one of those pretentious morons who only watch arthouse flicks. I'm just as happy watching the Batman or Back To The Future trilogy as I am watching the Colours trilogy or the Apu trilogy. Too many trilogies in one sentence. Oo
I just got interested in streaming services because I plan on moving to NA soon, and will therefore have to leave my collection behind (probably forever) and seek an alternative... and since I signed up for Arrested Development I thought I might as well test it out.

man, we get crap here... wtf
The content exclusivity deals and studio issues probably aren't as big of a strain on other regions.

I understand not liking it, but calling it horrible is pushing it a bit too far, man.

Damn, I've been wanting to see that movie.
Man, we get crap in the U.S. Last good movie added was Cabin in the Woods a month ago. You guys are getting good stuff.
