How so?
decided to start watching Alias with Jennifer Garner.
Decent show. The game I came up with is to take a shot every time someone gets tortured. If you can guess who will get tortured in the episode, make the other person drink.
I also had no clue Bradley Cooper was a regular on the show for the first two seasons as friend that had no idea she was a spy. I think he got tortured twice before his TV contract expired.......I mean before they placed him in "witness protection"
I thought I remembered it being so much better than it was.
JL Unlimited was really the bigger letdown. It had so much potential. The background storyline was good enough but the filler episodes completely/utterly sucked.
I mean....Wonder Woman turns into a pig and Batman chases after her the entire episode? That was awful.
Lex Luthor was also lame here compared to the cool calculating one-step-ahead playa he is in Young Justice.

Make it whenever anyone mentions the word Rambaldi. I guarantee you will become a drunk by the end of the series.
I've watched that show twice over. Good show.
good call.Make it whenever anyone mentions the word Rambaldi. I guarantee you will become a drunk by the end of the series.
Unlimited suffered from cartoon network axing two part episodes, which is why we got crap. But the storytelling from the original Justice League were good Legends in season 1 and hereafter in season 2 are probably my favorites
Anyone watch the series Nikita? I'm hoping they have the third season when it comes out. I already watched 1 & 2. 9/10!
Netflix link: Nikita
I thought about watching that but never did because I thought it had too many Alias-like similarities.
I am burnt out on spy shows tbh.
Yes, and multiple Nikita's were done as well.
It is very well done however. It's worth giving a try in my view.
Really interesting do entary (filmed conversation might be more accurate, really) about the differences between film and digital and the hows/whys the former is increasingly being abandoned in favor of the latter in contemporary filmmaking. If you give a about that trend from either a technical or artistic point of view, there's a lot of really interesting information here and a great opportunity to get inside the heads of major directors. The film makes almost zero attempt to be entertaining to people who don't give a about any of this, though.
Watched Day of the Falcon. I enjoyed it. Thanks for the recommendation.
Just started watching it now.
2 hours worth of film so I'm taking your word for it.
I liked it enough, I turned around and added the BluRay to my collection.
It's a good watch but I dont know about adding that to one's collection though.
I wish I could find something worth watching on Netflix, I either don't have the time to scroll through categories, or am not looking correctly. I still prefer to download the torrent and stream over the PS3.
Just began watching this too. It has its rediculous moments but all in all it's very addictive. Kevin Spacey is great it in. His love scenes are uncomfortable to watch, though.
Hemlock grove and bones brigade.most movies suck on Netflix.most of these suggestions suck.
Partly agree but cant go wrong with foreign movies. Sort them by rating and 9 times out of 10 d movie is gona b good
Thanx, I just put it in my queue. Don't know if I'll watch more than the first few minutes, but it looks like a good animation.
I saw a do entary on Netflix called Top Secret Rosies that I thought was really interesting. It was talking about how female mathematicians recruited by the University of Pennsylvania made a huge contribution to the war effort in WWII by working as computers, solving ordinary differential equations numerically to compute ballistics tables for the allied powers. Then these computers (that was their job le) ended up being the first computer programmers when ENIAC was developed at Penn. The name comes from Rosie the Riveter.

Undercover Boss: Canada So far so good...
Apparently this was conceived as one long do entary (900 minutes), but it's presented on Netflix as fifteen one-hour episodes, each thematically and/or chronologically organized. It's narrated by its director, an Irish film critic, and so far the narration is a bit... odd to listen to, but he provides a very interesting look at cinema. I find myself appreciating what he has to say even during the times I don't necessarily agree with his point or how it's being made. Perhaps most interesting about this do entary, compared to other film/film history do entaries I've watched, is that there is a very strong and intentional desire to avoid looking solely at cinema in the Western world or through a Hollywood-centric point of view. I haven't watched all of the episodes yet, so I can't speak to their success, but I've thoroughly enjoyed what I've watched so far and imagine other movie nerds will, as well.

You guys seen Waste Land?
Nice little hidden gem.
I'll check this out, thanks.
