Really loved Dead Like Me.  Weeds was okay for awhile but I really hate her character the more the show goes on.

Really? I haven't gotten too far, thanks for the heads up. I'm such an internet person that I resent shows I feel I've wasted my time on,  :lol:

I don't think you can do it with instant watch queues... Just DVD queues.  :|

Yeah, it's kind of a random grab bag of movies/shows.  I actually went through my history and looked at what all I rated 4 or 5 stars.  :lol:

1. What if you have two devices? Ari and I have the xbox and the wii set up for it, one in the bedroom and one in the living room, and we've never tried instant que on both, but it seems possible.

2. Thanks for doing that. I appreciate the effort. Had NO idea Aaaah! Real Monsters was on instant, but I totally grew up on that and rugrats and rocko's modern life and I am psyched to begin watching it!

-I watched weeds season 1-6, While I do agree that the show is at its best in the early seasons, the show never became unwatchable for me.

-I am pretty sure the Instant queue on both Xbox and wii will use the same queue (Unless you use separate accounts). You can watch 2 shows/movies at once by using both,  But you will still be watching them from the same queue.

-Yeah, I have all those cartoons in my queue too. I was pretty excited when I first saw that they had them on there.  The ones you mentioned,and Invader Zim!

It will be the same que. We have Netflix set up on our Xbox, PS3, TV and Bluray player and it's all the same que. I wish they all had a setup like the xbox where I can add more without going to the computer. so lazyyy!

You could always do what I do when I find movies I want, but my queue is full... Open a word document (or notepad, or whatever) and put the names in it then save it. Then you won't forget the names of them, and you don't have to worry about them mysteriously disappearing. :lol:

That's basically what I ended up doing.  I just took a screen shot of my queue and saved it.

If you liked shows like the Wire or Sopranos check out season one and two of "Brotherhood" on Instant view.

If you're into war docs I found "Ken Burns The War" and "Auschwitz, Inside the Nazi "state fascinating.


Someone friended up with me yesterday but I have no idea who... :lol:

[jeneria]

I'm loving all sorts of documentaries on instant watch:

Nerdcore Rising (nerd + hardcore rapping)
Beer Wars (what it takes to compete with the big boys)

American Meth
The Rape of Europa (the Nazis stealing art from Europe during WWII)

Confessions of a Superhero (those people who dress up as superheroes in LA)
Wal-Mart the High Cost of Low Price
IOUSA (debt)
Food, Inc
Outfoxed: Murdoch's War on Journalism (Fantastic!)

I just saw this the other day for the first time. It was full of win.

[EnigmaticCat]

For instant watch: Mary and Max.  I love this movie.  Also Harvie Krumpet.

[boogieman]

If you watched the Walmart Documentary, you absolutely HAVE to watch the Walmart episode of Penn & Teller's Bullshit  (Its in season 5).

It's essentially the other side to that argument and, in my opinion, presents some great points that people overlook when they decide to hate on Walmart.

The husband was trying and trying to get me to watch this and after some grumbling, I was like 'fine'.  It turned out to be one of my favorites!  I got so into that one.

Watching the Wiggles for the 90283698469182694816948th time.  :|

Oh hell yes.



Aaand some recommendations:

http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/Orgazmo/70024220?trkid=438403 - combines Mormonism, porn, and super-villains in a way that Jodi Arias could only dream of!

http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/Deadgirl/70108200?trkid=438403 - not monster-scary, human depravity scary

http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/Altered/70057542?trkid=438403 - aliens, creepiness, and hicks but doesn't go overboard with the humor

http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/La_Vie_en_Rose/70068655?trkid=438403 - got me into vintagey French shit

Did you ever see the techno version of "Point your fingers and do the twist." With the freaky ass puppets?!

Saw it in boarding school during childcare class. CANNOT BE UNSEEN

OMG!  New Whitest Kids U Know!

[jeneria]

ROKU
The State!
Kids in the Hall!

Documentaries:
Modify (tattoos, suspension, scarification, etc)
Commune (about a commune in the 60's, kinda dull)
Inside Deep Throat (about the porno flick)

Movies
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (the original Swedish movie)

Not on Roku but worth renting;  The Bridge about suicides and the Golden Gate Bridge.  Beautiful, brilliant, sad.

[holly]

Watched Mary and Max tonight on instant queue.  It's been mentioned around the forum a few times.  Definitely worth a watch.

[boogieman]

I watched 'The Darwin Awards' (http://www.netflix.com/Movie/The_Darwin_Awards/70043950?trkid=226870). It's not on Instant streaming, but it was pretty good.  :lol:

The Bridge was amazing. The scenes of the bridge looking so serene, then a splash in the water was just heartbreaking to watch.

I saw the Bridge. Fascinating. I wrote a fanfic once that featured the Golden Gate Bridge in one of the chapters, and I'm crazy so I do tons of research about most everything I write about. The GGB is a trip, and a monument to death. I can say one of the reasons I'm at MDS is because of that bridge. What an incredible symbol for the city, and the whole thing about the height of the railings, it's all too much. I want to see it in person one day.

The IT Crowd is a good show too, and has at least 3 seasons on Netflix Streaming.

My friend got into it and he just made me watch it.
