NetFlix Instant Play Movie List

[Sachita]

I use netflix and since I have Amazon Prime (so worth the 75.00 a year btw I save a lot more then that on shipping cost) I also use Amazon Video. Amazon may very well start seriously kicking Netflix's ass if Netflix doesn't start releasing sooner. Although rentals are 1.99 to 3.99 the same as a video store, I often find videos on Amazon I can't get on Netflix.

I'd love to get rid of my cable and I may one day. I have roku but my TV is internet ready so it has lots of its own apps. I also have kindle fire and often watch movies on it. Netflix has apps for almost every reader and tablet now. I even watch Son's of Anarchy on my iphone!

I just got my netflix to play on this computer. It wouldn't play. It wouldn't play on my old netbook too, so I haven't had it in eight or nine months. Over this summer, I was in a vacation rental that had cable, so I didn't miss it.

I have been spending money on Amazon lately. I have Prime too, but I have been spending money to watch TV episodes. I probably still will, but it's good to have the netflix option.

I just looked up my last Amazon orders:

NCIS
NCIS
NCIS
Murder at the Gallop -- old black and white Miss Marple film
Covert Affairs
Covert Affairs
Bones

I thought someone here recommended this but I can't find the post.

There is a BBC series called "Lip Service"

Holy bloody hell! It's drama about some lesbians in England. Yeah they are mostly the fru-fru kinda lesbians but there are some very hot sex scenes. I enjoyed the plot as well. ))

There is this one character named Sam, a cop and she is exactly the type that would make my blood boil! omg I watch all 12 episodes in a week and they are an hour long! I can't wait for them to make some more!

Then there is another BBC series that I find fucking funny as hell. lol My son thinks it stupid but I love it. It's called "Shameless"

I loved "Lip Service"...watched every episode in two days. I found it to be *much* more witty than the "L Word".

The L Word was ok only because it was the only thing but it was fucking BORING. Lip Service has good plots. It made me want to stay up and keep watching episodes.

recent films I watched:
Elena Undone
The Weekend
A Marine Story
Cowboy Junction
Loving Annabelle...very good imho
considering "Lip Service"
Sordid Lives (movie AND series)

The Real "L" Word was much better....

[Talon]

Has anyone seen "My Summer of Love" with Emily Blunt? That was a good one.


Last night I watched "Red Lights" w/ Robert Deniro and Sigourney Weaver, that was a really good film, as well.

I just purchased on Amazon...

The Fifth Element

Resident Evil: Afterlife

Resident Evil: Retribution

*bump*

I haven't watched anything much lately, but I did just finish up watching the second Netflix original content series "Orange is the new black".

Enjoyed it a lot.

I've been checking out Orange... too. It's mildly distracting. Not half as good as (the late lamented) Bad Girls.

Orange is also available on the free streaming sites.


Currently working m'way through all 8 seasons of Criminal Minds.

The third series of Luther has just finished on the Beeb. All three seasons are awesome! Idris Elba is a fantastic actor.

Really looking forward to getting into Channel 4's The Mill, no matter how dreek and dour it looks.

I have access through Netflix, Amazon (has Vikings at $1.99 per ep.), and anything Roku hosts. I did find a roku channel (Mhz) that streams quite a bit of Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian stuff; unfortunately it is pricy at $3.99 per ep., it even has the original Swedish Wallander. Too rich for my willingness to pay.

I don't watch any broadcast TV.

*"Bad Girls" was camp-tastic! when it started anyway, I grew a bit tired of it by the end.

*I've started watching "Orange is the New Black", I like it, the writing is great, the acting is great, the production quality is great, but I don't LOOOOVE it like so many people seem to already. I've not felt compelled to watch the whole series in a single sitting.

One of the things I do love about it is that there are a lot of "flash back scenes" that tell the story of Piper and her GF getting together and they're set in Northampton (my town) in the early-to-mid 90s and reference places that aren't around anymore - that aspect is very nostalgic and fun. And ironically Lea DeLaria, who has a role in the production, was hanging out in Northampton during that period because she was dating a Smithie. I have colourful Lea-at-the-bar memories. :P

*Kelt, does the roku channel you described have the original (Danish) version of 'The Killing' available? It's called "Forbrydelsen" I haven't been able to find it on any other streaming site and I'd love to see it.

Also the original (Swedish) version of 'Wallander' is on Netflix, search for "Henning Mankell's Wallander" - I liked it better than the BBC version, but I thought the BBC version was pretty good!

*"Luther" is awesome! I can't wait for season 3 to be streamed over here.

*A neat series I stumbled across on Netflix recently was "Top of the Lake", a Kiwi mystery/thriller type mini-series. It has a few David Lynch-esque moments. And is quite a compelling crime thriller.

I put this in my queue when you first mentioned this and just finished the first two episodes. First rate! Really like the actor and the character.

Thanks for another good one.

This, for me, exactly. Well, except for the Son's of Anarchy thing. And I read (but haven't yet investigated) that Amazon now has an app to let you stream their movies on an iThingy.

Also, if you BUY a movie from Amazon's streaming library, you can both watch it online any time and download the file to store on and watch from your PC or other device.

If you're a student (or just have a .edu email address) you can get Hulu for half-price. I haven't been watching them much but that may change once I drop cable, since according to friends who watch it regularly they're great for recent TV shows.

And I'm going to put in a plug for my cheesy current favorite dance movie which features a baby butch/femme love story, called Leading Ladies. Don't expect an Oscar winning script or acting, but if you enjoy cheesy old movies (especially old movie musicals) you'll love this. Plus it has two really fantastic dance scenes.

It's actually a series and not a film..but I'm hooked, nonetheless.
It's called "Lost Girl".
