Awesome. I've watched all the Brosnon films in theater, and own the three Craig films on BR, but I've never watched any of the older ones. Any recs on where to start?

if you're going to watch them all, just go in order and start with Doctor No.

Dr. No and Goldfinger are the only ones even remotely as good as Casino Royale.

bitch I'm taking calls.
I'm not a huge fan of Netflix or anything, I like it but I'm not loyal.

So I am trying out Amazon Prime Instant lately and not really impressed. Doesn't appear to have a better selection than Netflix so far and the way they organize their collection is stupid. The only thing they do have that I like is the option to purchase or rent things with instant streaming capability thereafter.

I think of Amazon Prime as more of a supplement to Netflix than a competitor.

It still bugs me that other people have tried their own 'Netflix' and in the process fractured the selection available. Get it all back on Netflix please. 1 fee for rolling content.

Their UI is terribad. So hard to find anything. Only time I really use it is to watch DuckTales and Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers.

And a bunch more.

I know there's enough Bond films and fans to say watch em all. You'll love some, like some, get bored by some and loathe some, but it varies on which

Goldfinger and From Russia With Love are two of the more universally loved ones. But I agree with your assessment.

For those watching or plan to watch Doctor Who, Netflix is missing an episode "Planet of the Dead". It's a crucial episode in Series 4 and if you can find some other way to watch it (Amazon Prime), do so before "The Waters of Mars".

Is there a service or site where I can browse Netflix & Hulu+'s catalog? I just got Hulu+ and it's kind of overwhelming and a pain in the ass to manage both. I see some titles that are common to both and in that case I'd prefer watching them on Netflix because it's ad free.

I know the Bing app on 360 (My device of choice) let's me search for specific titles and lists which service has it but I never do that because the stuff I would want to search for are usually new releases, which I know neither have.

I browse in app or use this thread to find stuff to watch and I don't think there's a Hulu+ thread, or am I wrong?

Is the season good? I only watched a couple episodes as it aired....dropped cable soon after it started.

I have a feeling they will officially add it sometime soon. They can't remove it for too long.

It's different but I'm liking it. I think someone mentioned in the Fringe thread that S5 will be added on September 12th.

Oh, and turns out I only had two more episodes to watch. :\

You know, I don't think I cried at any point watching Fringe until the finale, but there were multiple parts of that episode that hit me hard. Regardless of what happens on-screen, it's always hard to say goodbye to characters that you love.

SPOILERS ON FINALE INCOMING: The part that broke me was
when Astrid showed Walter where Gene was. And then Walter's response. "It's a beautiful name. Astrid." Yeah, that got me so hard.

I was all excited to watch Fringe season 5 this weekend, only to find out they sent out the wrong date. It sucks but, I can wait.

I did start Continuum. I'm only two episodes in but, it seems entertaining.

I also watched Last Kind Words and State of Emergency. Both are decent/above average. State of Emergency looks like just another zombie movie but, it is a little bit different. Not much but, enough to make it worth watching. Last Kind Words had a plot that was kind of easy to see where it was headed but, it was pretty well done.

Saw The Town on Netflix Sweden at the weekend, was a really good tight crime thriller. Although, the whole instigating premise was totally ridiculous
guys rob a bank and briefly kidnap a woman. Main guy stalks her a little bit to make sure she won't tell the cops but then falls in lurv, so dumb
but once I got over yelling at the TV about it there was a great film underneath it. That Ben Affleck has gotten damn good in the last decade.

Scary crime movie on Netflix for tonight. Something like Se7en would be perfect... but something like I Know What You Did Last Summer would be acceptable as well.

Any region. Suggestions?

The Factory with John Cusack,
An obsessed cop is on the trail of a serial killer prowling the streets of Buffalo, N.Y. but when his teenage daughter disappears, he drops any professional restraint to get the killer.

Starts a bit slow but the ending is good. And it will cool you off as it takes place in Buffalo during the winter. Nice snow.

I like it so far, I've had it in my que forever just never gave it a chance. Saw a LTTP thread in OT, and finally decided to jump in. I'd say give the 1st two episodes a go atleast.

‘Marco Polo’ Series Eyes Move To Netflix

I’ve learned that Netflix has made an offer for a 9-episode order to the original drama about the 13th century explorer. According to sources close to the negotiations, there is no deal in place yet because Harvey Weinstein also is considering a feature version of the project, which is fully financed, and is is currently deciding between the two options. Marco Polo was originally set up at Starz, which gave it a 10-episode straight-to-series order in January 2012. The series was supposed to film in China, something no other U.S. show has done, which proved a complex and difficult proposition. I hear the potential series will now film in Malaysia. Seven scripts have already been written, with casting on track to begin right away for a production start in the first quarter. The Weinstein Co. and Electus took out the project after it was released to them by Starz, the pay cable network confirmed. With the delays caused by the efforts to film in China, Starz has built a full slate for 2014 with 50 hours of original programming, making it difficult to find space for another series.

Marco Polo tells the true story of the world’s greatest storyteller, an epic and cinematic adventure of high politics, masterful manipulation and deadly warfare. Young Marco Polo finds himself at the center of a brutal war between two empires in 13th century China, replete with close combat, romance & sexual intrigue, religious tension, political skullduggery and spectacular battles.

Sweet! I never thought this'd see the light of day on Starz, so I'm glad that Netflix is interested in potentially picking it up to series.

Fantastic from beginning to end. However the actress they get to play one of the queens (who is also on Game of Thrones) is god awful and almost ruins the show. Her acting is ok, but her constant smug smile which apparently she cannot ever stop, is extremely off putting.
