The Netflix Recommendation Thread of Dope Movies

I watched Cashback last night. I thought it was good. Netflix listed it as an indie comedy, and there were some funny parts. But it was more of a romantic comedy than anything. Unless I just don't get British humor, er, humour.
 
I've been using the service for a month on PS3, and I've liked it. The one thing missing is the option to mark movies you want to watch later.

When you select a movie/show, just go to the option of Add To Instant Queue instead of play. How have you not noticed this?

Maybe it is different for your region though.

There's no such option. :/ There's only play, rate this title and audio & subtitles.

That is a huge bummer. Here in the US we can add titles straight from the PS3 to our Instant Queue.

You sure you can't press Triangle or something and add?

Such a stupid idea not to have it on there for you guys.

hmm no on ps3 you should select at title and be brought to a description screen where you can select "add to instant queue." But if that's seriously not there: why not just manage your queue on the website? i.e. netflix.com? That's what I do already despite mainly watching on one device because it's 4000x times easier to search for stuff on a computer. did you not know you could do that?

Yeah, I've had to start the movies, so they'll be added to the recently watched, and I don't have to search them again.

Triangle is for search.

There's no "add to instant queue." to be found on the description screen.

Yeah, I knew that, but I prefer to browse through the movies in the living room, and on TV.
 
Is it the "awkward" comedy? I'm getting pretty tired of that... everyone seems to be doing it now.

I was curious about this show, but for whatever reason I got that vibe from it.

Bit predictable, but Olsen was good and it was pretty entertaining.

pretty much. The biggest suprise for me was the Olsen Girl could act.

For Chrismas movies I liked 12 Dates of Christmas. If you like Groundhog day you'll be right at home.

Out of curiosity, what shows are you referring to? I can't really think of too many "awkward" comedies at all. Inbetweeners is all I can come up with off hand.

Bottom line, Peep Show is awesome. It's more than 'just' awkward comedy if that helps.

Peep show is one of the greatest things to ever be on TV. The characters are such arseholes and it gets so unrelentingly dark and messed up later. It's brilliant. I love Super Hans. And Big Suze, I think I have a crush on her.

Ricky Gervais cringe-coms like the Office and Extras? Oooh, not on Netflix but Worst Week of My Life - very funny but borderline unwatchable sometimes. Even your classics like Fawlty Towers. I think the English excell in cringe-inducing farces.

Never saw it, looked like a mediocre movie & only got attention after Chapelle got big & people wanted to see him in any previous roles he had.
I could be wrong though.

That movie had a huge cult following back in 99 and early 2000s before The Chappelle Show started. I was in college at the time and everybody quoted that movie constantly.

Disney signs multiyear deal with Netflix:
Netflix Inc. (NFLX) and The Walt Disney Company (DIS) today announced a new multi-year licensing agreement that will make Netflix the exclusive U.S. subscription television service for first-run live-action and animated feature films from The Walt Disney Studios.

Beginning with its 2016 theatrically released feature films, new Disney, Walt Disney Animation Studios, Pixar Animation Studios, Marvel Studios and Disneynature titles will be made available for Netflix members to watch instantly in the pay TV window on multiple platforms, including television, tablets, computers and mobile phones. Also included in the agreement are high-profile Disney direct-to-video new releases, which will be made available on Netflix starting in 2013.

Separately, Disney and Netflix have reached agreement on a multi-year catalog deal that today brings to U.S. Netflix members such beloved Disney movies such as "Dumbo," "Pocahontas" and "Alice in Wonderland."

"Disney and Netflix have shared a long and mutually beneficial relationship and this deal will bring to our subscribers, in the first pay TV window, some of the highest-quality, most imaginative family films being made today," said Ted Sarandos, Chief Content Officer at Netflix. "It's a bold leap forward for Internet television and we are incredibly pleased and proud this iconic family brand is teaming with Netflix to make it happen."

"With this cutting-edge agreement, we are thrilled to take our highly valued relationship with Netflix to the next level by adding Disney's premier films to their programming line-up," said Janice Marinelli, President, Disney-ABC Domestic Television. "Netflix continues to meet the demands of its subscribers in today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, and we are delighted that they will have much earlier access to our top-quality and entertaining slate," she continued.

Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Wow, that's huge. Remember just a year or two ago when they were having a major identity crisis and everyone (myself included) thought Netflix was gonna fold. Things are looking good for them now.

10 point gain on the stock price today. They're still nowhere where they used to be though.

It looks like the agreement is for movies mad beyond a certain date, but I wonder if this might also lead to the first 6 films being available on instant.

Disney doesn't have the distribution rights to the first 6 movies until 2020, and even then, Fox will still own the distribution rights to ANH.

Depends. Is Disney keeping the LucasFilms brand or folding it into the family under one of its existing arms? Note that the article says:

Today, the Studio brings quality movies, music and stage plays to consumers throughout the world.

The Disney Theatrical Group produces and licenses live events, including Disney on Broadway, Disney On Ice and Disney Live!.

No mention of LucasFilms at all, so it might not be included.

That is because the LucasFilms deal has not been finalized yet. Some PR guy said they would have no comment on this until they seal the deal for LucasFilms.

Abbazabba you my only friend.

Yeah, show had a super cult following waaay before the show. My friends and I would watch it all the time in our Air Force dorms when we got drunk.
