Netflix is awesome....

JPickettIII · January 01, 2011, 01:14:45 AM

My family just got a Bluray/DVD player that is wireless ready. We got Netflix on the player and have been watching a lot of movies and shows. I have a lot of B movies on the download part. There there is the DVD side that comes to you. Right now I a watching Cheezy Horror Trailers: Vol 1. There is some funny stuff on here. I have started to load up the insta queue with movies such as the Cheezy Horror Trailers, Hercules with Lou Fergno (possible miss-spell), lots of MST3K to name a few. I love it. Anyone else done this?

Love it love it love it.

Later,

John

Yup. I agree. What I like best about it is that you can feel free to explore and rent movies you might not ordinarily watch thanks to the relativley low cost and great selection.

Same here, I've got a wishlist a mile long on Amazon and it's great to be able to just rent or stream them and not have to waste money on the DVD before I know if they're good or not. If they are good, I usually buy them afterwards.

I got Netflix on the PS3 originally, and liked it so much we got a Roku box for the other TV. We like to watch a TV show, commercial free, while eating supper, so that works out fantastic. Been watching Starhunter 2300 every evening, a really good sci-fi show that I've never seen before. Right now I'm waiting for Creatures From The Abyss to arrive in the mail - that looks like a total cheesefest lol.

Thanks to Netflix streaming I got rid of cable. If there's a sports event on ESPN I want to see, I go to someone's house or to a bar.

What a concidence, the same time happened to me just yesturday. I haven't been really using it though since my dad and me been busy.

I love my Netflix subscription and only regret I didn't give them a chance earlier. I watch all my movies/shows on the computer though I'm hoping for a router for my birthday so I can watch it through our Wii.

Just got my hands on a PS3 and a Netflix trial. Best choice I've ever made. I can watch movies with the family on the HD TV via my PS3, I can watch things with friends downstairs with my Xbox 360, and if there's something I need to watch alone I can watch it on the Wii in my private office.

Yes I DO own all three of the modern consoles.

I still haven't tried Netflix yet. Maybe I'll give it a try. I used to buy probably 10 or more DVDs per month, but I've really slowed down lately. I'm trying to catch up on a lot of my TV series purchases and I have a long way to go. I'm about half way through Season 6 of THE OFFICE, and I'm at the beginning of Seasn 2 of LEAVE IT TO BEAVER. I still have many unwatched episodes of THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E., THE AVENGERS (Diana Rigg seasons only), COLUMBO, LAND OF THE GIANTS, THE TIME TUNNEL, THE TWILIGHT ZONE, ULTRA MAN, THE MONKEES, and THE OUTER LIMITS. It will probably take me a couple years to get through all of these. Maybe Netflix is a good option for when I need some "filler" movies to watch.

NetFlix is great. I've caught quite a few movies that I ordinarily wouldn't have gotten around to buying due to budget or time. I recently watched The Warriors and it was awesome.

What is this NetFlix of which you speak? Maybe they should advertize online more.

Any chance that Netflix will ever have any manufacture on demand releases in the future?

I doubt it, they won't even look at DVD-R's for rental copies. They very well may put such movies on instant streaming, though.
