Thread has been dead for a month, but if you have instant watch and haven't seen The Wild & Wonderful Whites of West Virginia then you need to cancel Netflix and go back to your Betamax, granpa.

I watched this the other night and was immensely entertained/disturbed.

It's basically an hour and a half Jerry Springer casting call.

The Crazies was just added if you're a fan of the zombie-ish genre. It's quite a good remake.

So are they ever planning on adding more Family Guy/American Dad or are we stuck with what we have now?

By the way, the first season of Comedy Central's version of Futurama is now up.

Just noticed that MicMacs was added to the queue.

It's a very entertaining French film from the director of Amelie, Delicatessen, and City of Lost Children, so if you liked any of those films I promise you will enjoy this one.

They usually release things in batches so we probably still have some Miramax things to go.

Also, Way of the Gun is up. I haven't seen the movie in ages but I remember it being pretty good. It has one of the best shoot outs from any movie towards the end and if you hate Sarah Silverman it's worth even just watching the opening because Benicio Del Toro punches her straight in her face.

Way of the Gun was criminally underrated. It was very funny.

The Man From Nowhere

This was a hit at Fantastic Fest last year, and I see why. It's basically the Korean version of "Taken", but it's much more awesome than that.

I heartily recommend.

Korean movies have really been going amazing places lately, it seems to be some kind of wave of new directors who are just blowing it up.

Agreed, and Netflix has a lot of them.

Check out "Chaser" "Mother" and "Thirst" when you've finished the vengeance trilogy.

Korean cinema is pretty much my "go to" for awesome foreign movies. They're so deliciously hosed up, you can't help but love them.

Best Korean films on view instantly right now:

Mother

The Host

The Chaser

Oldboy

Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance

Lady Vengeance

Thirst

My Name is Bruce is awesome. Bruce Campell produces and directs in a spoof of his own movies.

I will vouch for this. His character is absolutely hilarious, and practically an older, more bitter and jaded Ash from AoD.

So I just watched all 4 seasons of battlestar galactica in about a week and a half.

I'm on the second episode of the 2nd season, and I'm still just not that into it.

Does it get better later on?

I like sci-fi but I don't like Star Trek (yet I love the naval fiction it's based on) if that's any indicator of my tastes.

Blog promises substantial additional streaming content soon, so I'm optimistic.

I wonder if the DVD service being spun off into a separate company will make streaming content easier to acquire, since a lot of the big studios are unhappy with the Netflix/Redbox way of doing things.

Still, I was promised Frasier over a year ago. WTF Netflix?
