a foolish pianist posted:The old 80s cartoon of The Real Ghostbusters is up on Netflix. I loved in back in elementary school. Had to watch a few episodes this morning when I saw it on there. Was one of my faves as a kid, and seems like it's held up pretty well. The animation and voice acting is definitely better than most other shows of that era.

Wiggles Von Huggins posted:I don't wanna derail, but I nearly foam at the mouth every time someone mentions Lost. I'm not usually goony, but I become an angry obnoxious dweeb whenever someone claims to like Lost. I just can't understand how anyone squeezed joy out of that stinky turd past season 1. Because it was full of great characters that people wanted to spend time with?

Franchescanado posted:So who's gonna be the guinea pig to give Sandy Wexler a try? AV Club actually liked it, I might give it a shot this weekend. Apparently Sandler actually put a bit of effort into the character, and it's not a mean-spirited movie like pretty much everything he's done has been lately.

DorianGravy posted:I'm halfway through Cry Wilderness, and I'm really enjoying the show so far. I actually tend to enjoy both the movie and commentary, for whatever reason. MST3k has always been such a niche show; will it attract enough of an audience to get more seasons on Netflix? I finished Cry Wilderness this morning, and I'm completely sold on this new season. Jonah and the bots feel like a perfect fit, and the skits have been pretty great overall. I laughed pretty frequently, and that's good enough for me.

Call Me Charlie posted:I'm not a deadhead in the slightest but Long Strange Trip is a really fascinating documentary. It doesn't fall into the usual traps. It doesn't try to cover everything and it jumps around in its approach but it covers how this thing became important to so many people and the cost that had to be paid. Just finished the second episode, and it is really well made. I was a deadhead going in though, so my opinion is probably suspect.

Punkin Spunkin posted:what's a good comedy or weird movie to get high to on Netflix rn. and I don't mean some niche white people comedy like that broadway show where I have to get really lame references to laugh. anyone about to suggest the American Office plz sit down. maybe something from the 80s I missed (which would mean all of the 80s, I have seen Big Trouble in Little China and the Escape From movies). Hot Shots, Part Deux! is on Starz streaming if you have that, and it is still funny as hell. Dunno if the first is streaming anywhere, but it holds up too.

Finally found the time to watch Fargo S2 on Hulu, and you can put me in the loved it even more than S1 column. All of the early aliens and UFO references got my hopes up that the show was going to just go for it and get weird, and I was not at all disappointed.

I have Prime if it is on there, otherwise can you watch the 10 Years Later show w/o having seen the movie, anything I need to know? I'd imagine First Day of Camp would be harder to follow without seeing the movie than 10 Years Later. If you enjoyed First Day then I'd say go ahead and watch the new series.

The live tv package with Hulu is a great value for the channels you get, but the interface is so so terrible. I'd have to spend almost $30 more to get the same channels I need with DirecTV, and I'm halfway considering it to get away from that interface.

Maxwell Lord posted:Apparently Amazon Prime has had the original Invaders From Mars up for a while now, which is interesting because it hasn't been in print on DVD for a while (long enough that the DVD is now quite pricey.) It's not the best print, but it is at least the original short version instead of the ludicrously padded cut. I really enjoy the 86 version too, and it was streaming a month or so back but now I can't find it.
