Ok so is there a reason why closed captioning isnt available anymore?

They're spinning it off into its own company called Capster.

All of you fans of The American Astronaut should check out Stingray Sam. It's another space-western-musical done by the same guys, but set up as a six part serial narrated by David Hyde Pierce.

I liked it but I enjoy slow paced, introspective sci fi movies. It was made on a shoestring budget but looks fairly decent. It sort of goes off the rails but if you just can go with it, it can be satisfying.

Not everyone's cup of tea, definitely.

I liked Love as well, but I can definitely see how it wouldn't be most people's cup of tea. Another one I liked in the same vein that is (or maybe was) streaming is Earthling.

I will have to check that out! Also "Another Earth" is similar and was on Canadian Netflix I think. I enjoyed it but man it starts off with a horribly sad beginning.

Sadly, not on US Netflix, but whatever, I have the bluray.
I think I just like low budget sci-fi. Not the cheesy stuff, but the ones where the filmmakers work within their budgets to make something special, rather than resorting to cheap effects.
On that note, Upstream Color is on instant, and by god, anyone who hasn't seen it, should take the time to do so.
