Fat Mac Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Finally saw Whiplash. I know these threads have been filled with Whiplash love for months, but it really is deserved. It was fantastic, and both JK Simmons and Miles Teller were awesome. I've never seen a film quite like it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HexMachina Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 This netflix mailbox thing is confusing me. I guess it's a feature of US Netflix? Also, Nox, you had me checking for Wolf of Wall-Street on UK Netflix :p disappointed now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Nox, you had me checking for Wolf of Wall-Street on UK Netflix :p disappointed nowAww, sorry! :D I think there's a way to change your region back and forth, but I'm not sure.Finished up Robocop 2014. Definitely not great but not totally awful either, in my opinion. To me it seems like the perfect sort of thing to have on in the background while you're doing laundry or surfing the internet on your phone or something (which is what I was doing, in between bites of a strangely delicious pizza combination of pepperoni & pineapple). 12 Years A Slave is up next and then going out to see Insurgent this evening.

HexMachina Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 What did you think of Once Upon a Time???I enjoyed it, in a"well this is fun" sort of way. I can imagine it could easily be dragged on too long though. I'll see how S2 goes, but yeah I liked it (I keep getting the music stuck in my head, haha). I didn't really have an issue with the acting, which I know most have commented on. Is this a bigger problem in later seasons or am I just a bad judge? (No surprises there, lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're talking about getting the physical DVD"s in our mailboxes. Whenever I want mine I have to walk 2 blocks to get it though because we have community mailboxes here.

drawkcabi Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Netflix don't post films in the UK, as far as I know. It's all online streaming We've got both methods in the U.S. Most new releases never come out on streaming until much much much later after their DVD releases, if at all. Getting the DVD's by post let's us see new releases relatively soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newest thing we've got is probably 22 Jump Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Mac Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Such a great ending too. Definitely. I also thought it was the perfect length for a movie. I feel a lot of movies that are considered great tend to run a little long, so I find they don't have a great rewatch value. At an hour and 40 minutes, I can definitely see myself watching Whiplash again in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyedGhost Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 It was really confusing me as well tbh!!! :P Be happy you're confused! That's why you still have a job - Netflix's dvd service literally killed the video store in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concept behind it is fun and I enjoy the revelations of who each character is. Definately worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nictarion Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I miss blockbuster :(Me too. I worked at one my senior year of high school. It was great. 5 free rentals a week, movie posters, etc. That job had some cool perks.And no I didn't steal any Wallace and Gromit cutouts. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
