Netflix "Watch Instantly"

Netflix "Watch Instantly"

I just recently rejoined Netflix and was pleased to see they have added a "Watch Instantly" feature where you can stream a movie over the internet. The selection of movies/shows is subpar, but it's free baby! Well, free as in no extra charge. You can watch 1 hour for every dollar/month your subscription is and it doesn't affect your queued/shipped movies at all. Minuses are that you have to be running Windows and Internet Explorer, but the quality is great! I have a garbage laptop, but it looks the same as a DVD to me and it hasn't skipped/paused/hiccuped once so far.

Hopefully Netflix does more of these, which I think they will. I always loved the Comedy Central roasts.

I’m thinking that they will because it seems like it was a big success. Although, that event look ridiculously expensive.

Yes.

OTOH, Netflix only worth $263Bn.


i dunno i get confused on these high numbers

netflix networth
261 billion


Apple networth
2.82 trillion


how real are these numbers


halfway through the Brady roast and overall it's amazing so far but Kevin Hart is so unfunny. For years i've been amazed people think he's hilarious.

It was hard to tell if it was a Brady roast or a Gronk roast. Did I see Steve Urkel up there at one point?


Abigail is good and bloody fun

the Spanish prisoner is fantastic but it's a mamet con movie not a comedy at all.
steve plays a straight role and it also has the amazing ricky jay (mamet loved him and rightfully so) altho none of his real talents were utilized.

great movie.

Seconded. I often find David Mamet to be irritating, but this is a good movie.

Now that I think about it, I nearly always agree with rbk's opinions about movies and TV. For that reason, I guess that I need to watch Bojack Horseman.

She's doing a residency with David Spade at Venetian. 100% he had a big hand in the funnier stuff.

I love roasts, so I figured I'd enjoy it no matter what, but even still it blew away my expectations. They got a great lineup of roasters, Hinchcliffe, Nikki, and Ross are all excellent at roasting, Hart was a solid host, but the big surprise was the athletes. Edelman was incredible and is a natural at this, Drew was pretty funny, and even Gronk had his moments.

Hopefully Netflix does more of these, which I think they will. I always love

Edelman has a podcast and is pretty funny. He also does an amazing Belicek imitation.


New ‘The Office’ Series Pick...

Two of my favourite shows ever. Not sure how I feel about this...


it's gonna be terrible, no good writer would ever attempt to resurrect that corpse again. zombie desecration.


I can’t stand how unoriginal Hollywood has become, but it seems like they’re taking the right angle here. Encouraging that Greg Daniels is involved. I like Domnhall Gleeson but seems like an odd cast - I guess he could work as the new Jim.

oh man pls let me know what you think of it!
give it a few episodes to find itself.

it's the only show I've ever finished watching then immediately started watching again from the beginning.

I'm halfway through it now. I almost turned it off after only Kevin Hart and Jeff Ross. Both have been cringe-worthy imo. I'm glad I stuck with it as everyone else so far has been great.

The format of the roasts was better when they had an MC who played it fairly straight and just kept things moving along. Kevin Hart's entire role is useless. I suppose they were looking for someone comparable.

I'm about halfway through, too and I agree with most of the above.

The apologies after the minor barb at Kraft for the massage parlor issue seemed weak on the surface, but it felt like Ross ad-libbed the jab there.

I'm guessing the players didn't want the Kraft issue to be in there. Most of them really respect the owner. I'm a long time Pats fan and despite how Belichick's tenure ended, on balance, Kraft has been a great owner. Most franchises soak the taxpayers for new venues but Gillette was built with 96% (IIRC) private money with the only cost to the taxpayers being the widening of US 1 and access road construction, which TBH, the area needed anyway.

Yeah, this does seem like it will be hilarious and with a ton of heart. Sort of like a Bill Lawrence joint.

If you assume they sold tickets to the audience, it doesn't look expensive at all?


The best show none of you have watched, Interview with the Vampire, is back for season 2. First season was phenomenal.

Only downside is that it’s on AMC+, but Max featured it sometime last year and I imagine they’ll do it again.


It's on regular AMC channel also, I got bored with season 1 and never finished it.
