GOOD on Netflix STREAMING?

[TxBrew]

another vote for wiimote but I primarily use my wii to watch netflix. I don't, nor do my friends, have enough time to play video games.

Play old school games. I play Kirby all the time.

 

[HoppyDaze]

Sorry? If you have time to watch Netflix you have time to play video games, but looking down your nose at everything I can see how you wouldn't see that...

But hey you are clearly better than and more successful than me...

Whoa! Down boy!

How the hell did you get that from me saying I don't have time to video games? Not my intent at all. Sorry I put you on the defense.

Video games take a huge time commitment for them to be worthwhile; I think everyone would agree with that. Catching a 45 min episode of BSG before going to bed is not exactly the same thing.

 

[HoppyDaze]

I'm digging Caprica. It's no BSG but it's definitely doing a good job as a prequel. Hot chicks, decent acting and awesome landscapes...

Not everyone would agree. I hop on for 20 minutes to play 2 rounds of Blacklight Retribution all the time. I can even play during my lunch at work.

 

[HoppyDaze]

I suppose...I just think it takes a long time for me to get good enough at any given game for it to be worth it. Loved Super Mario Wii though, took me forever to get good at it. The only other game I committed time to besides that one was Golden Eye when I was in college. Best. Game. Ever. Facility with Rocket Launchers baby!

Talking to the TV is indeed awesome. I don't know about wii remotes, but the Xbox remote shuts down after 20 minutes of being idle. It takes several annoying seconds to turn back on and pause a show. Just saying Xbox pause is far superior to that.

Fair enough brother....and as you admit, you are NOT familiar with the wiimote

Indeed they go to sleep, but 2 pushes of A wakes then pauses, no lag.
I need to check out the kinect for sure.

All I know is that the wiimote kicks the crap out of hand controllers for Call of Duty and the like.

 

[TxBrew]

Those seconds are annoying. I always rage when that happens.

 

[Swarley88]

Hells on Wheels is pretty good. About halfway through. Are all of the AMC originals at least halfway decent. Seems like half of my favorite shows come from AMC

 

[KayaBrew]

If you like baseball, there is a good documentary streaming called "Knuckleball!" It features Tim Wakefield and RA Dickey mainly, along with Charlie Hough and the Niekro Brothers. Very interesting.

I throw a fierce knuckle ball.... with a football

Flaw was an interesting look at how the Rich get so rich while the rest of us go into debt.

crazy ain't it?...I see a lot of it in my line of work. I have one client in particular who makes about 100K every time he farts.

 

[cheezydemon3]

I see more of it now that I know what I am really seeing.

 

[Whsoj]

So if I watch Flaw will I be more pissed off that I'm not filthy rich and can't do anything about it, or happy that I can see it for what it is and maybe stop it?

We're going back and watching Twin Peaks for the first time. Never saw it the first time through.

Life is too short to watch Twin Peaks....just an opinion.

*shrug* you watch what you want. I like weird stuff.

 

[Spillsaw]

The Catechism Cataclysm (2011)
My favorite.

I think you're confusing this with the obnoxious football trashtalk forum.

It's actually a byproduct of spending so much time in the debate forums. That's why I don't go there any more. People in there are crazy.

 

[DrunkleJon]

I just finished watching Mystery Men on Netflix. I am not sure if I am ashamed or not for enjoying it more now than the first time I watched it many years ago.

No also

I like to know if something sucks, but in the end it is your opinion.

I was chided for liking LO (CHECK IT OUT CHESHIRECAT.......pre-emptive "YES" included for your convenience, you are welcome) But it is just my kind of wierd and therefore AWESOME.

One man's NO is another man's YES. Please move on.

 

[bleme]

I had a friend rave about Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, so I checked it out.

His recommendations don't carry nearly as much weight anymore. It doesn't mean he's an idiot. He just apparently enjoys idiotic movies.

I like the series...Fire Walk With Me is where it gets really weird.

 

[weirdboy]

It is truly unfortunate that Netflix doesn't have any Lynch movies anymore. I can remember watching Mulholland Drive and I think Dune on there before. I also seem to recall seeing Lost Highway on there at one point, but that may have been Amazon or Hulu.

Knuckle ball is a serious medical condition. I hate when non-sufferers make light of our ailment.

Isn't it time for you to start drinking again? Because if it is, I'm dying to go to Sergio's.

i was enjoying Orange is the New Black until Chapman came out of the SHU and jumped her ex. WTF?

That's one I've been thinking about watching.

So... more or less weird than Eraserhead?

 

[chuckstout]

I'm enjoying some Peep Show, also enjoy some of the other British comedies the inbetweeners, black books

 

[weirdboy]

It turns out that I cannot watch my netflix streaming from Tokyo. Instead it says, "Sorry Netflix hasn't come to this part of the world yet".

Amazon Prime streaming pretends like it will work, but then when I click on a video to watch it, it says there is a geographic restriction.

 

[mightynintendo]

I never realized American Dad was so funny until trying it on Netflix. Freaking hilarious!

Yeah, I know what a proxy server is. It is just a shame that as an american, with a US address, paying with a US credit card, and having lived in the US and used Netflix US pretty much since the company got started, that they would arbitrarily cut me off because I am trying to watch something while I'm on a business trip.

It's japans laws. There not allowed to show everything over there. The server censors block it.

I didn't know they had porn on netflix. That's the only thing I've ever seen censored here. They even show naked boobies on TV with no pixelation or other censorship, which is more than I can say for the US.
