Thanks mate.

One of my employees and I were watching it at the same time. I stopped by her desk, which is in front of my boss' office and literally started my conversation with "Ya know what's weird about You". My boss was like, I think we may need to talk about your communication skills.

'You' is a very cheesy but enjoyable show.

They probably weren't offered a cut of the profits.

They were asked to appear, but declined. Probably the right decision. They've also declined to watch an advanced screening. Their lawyer is watching it to look for anything defamatory

It's Amazon Prime rather than Netflix but this is still very important news:

 

Farscape is now on Prime!! Including Peacekeeper Wars!

All three Jurassic Park movies went up this morning. I know the third one is bad, but I'm still definitely doing to watch them back to back

Or just watch this amazing transition over and over

The bit where the dinosaur says "Alan!" is one of my favourite moments in film.

For bonus hilarity isn't that the first time we see the new look velociraptors with the feathers on the top of their head? Don't get me wrong the others have silly moments (the gymnastics routine for example) but straight away taking a creature you've built up over the last two films and giving it a hilarious WTF moment like that can't have helped.

Oh man, this is the first Netflix thread I came across but everyone should watch Dark Crystal : Age of Resistance.

It's so fucking good

John Wick 3 and Fighting With My Family both on Netflix

Yay

 

[Skummy]

This is as good an excuse as any to finally get around to watching Princess Kaguya.

 

By which I mean I will rewatch Porco Rosso roughly twelve more times.

no Grave of the Fireflies for some reason.

Good spot; I hadn't noticed that.

I can only imagine 5-year-olds stumbling across that one on Netflix and thinking they're in for a fun adventure like the others.

[Skummy]

it seems to be a rights issue - publishing rights belong to the publisher of the original short story. I already own it on DVD, so no great loss personally, but a shame it's not the full set. 

[Skummy]

never mind all that nonsense;
