Mostly a waste of time. Any cult film I look for isn't there, no independent films. Over the last week I've searched Deathproof, Blow Up, They Live, Looper, Existenz. Nope on all counts. It seems to be all stuff I've seen or stuff I don't really want to see. Hyped to buggery and just isn't much chop. Tried it, gunna ditch it.

Try Stan. And you need Netflix for House of Cards. And you need Stan for Better Call Saul.

Tried Presto and it was abominable. Got Stan & Netflix via my sons account as the second user so it's free and the only things I watch are Saul and 11/22/63.

They are disappointing platforms.

Re: Netflix is sh!t

Getting into Netflix for something I don't normally watch - TV.

Master of None with Aziz Azari and Love by Judd Apatow are cracking Netflix-produced TV shows.

Our grandkids love Netflix.

Yep rosy, main reason we haven't canned it is my 4yo stepdaughter, good for kids. I'd like some more retro cartoon though for me 8-, she always wants me to watch with her.

Thanks carter I'll check those shows out.

Re: Netflix is sh!t

Got Netflix with our new telly this week. Thousands of options but nothing seems to grab me. So far have watched one episode of call the Midwife, a David Attenborough doco and half an episode of Fawlty Towers. Guess i'm just out of the habit of watching telly. Maybe in winter while cosied in by the fire.

What is everyone watching? Any recommendations?

Foxtel gave us their complete package for free for 6 months. All we watched is Richmond games. Decided to get rid of it.

Re: Netflix is sh!t

I found it pretty useful in Japan for TV series. But it's not that great for movies.

I pretty much only use it for movies (although they’re not all that great)
