movies galore! suggestions PLEASE =)
    #1281634 -

I don't know if anyone watches as many movies(DVD) as I do (3-5 a week), but if you do, and you don't know about http://www.netflix.com - you NEED to check it out. It's awesome.

Anyhow, you get a que list - where you pick movies, as many as you like. They mail out 3 at a time, with return envelopes. You then send them back as you finish them. It's pretty rad.

So, i'm starting to run out of stuff that I want to see, i'm looking for suggestions..

Any genre is fine, though my favorites are things that provoke introspective thought. Even to the light extent of the matrix. I mean don't get me wrong, i like pootie tang and such just as much as the next guy, but those are my favorites.

So, anyways - if anyone/everyone could give me a movie or 3, that would rock =)

thanks.

Did they get you to trade, your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange, a walk on part in the war, for a lead role in the cage?

doh, neither of those are available. They don't have everything - it has to be on DVD. If it's on DVD and they don't have it, it's probably pretty fucking obscure.

Waking Life its a movie done over so it looks cartoony. Its about lucid dreaming. My friend watched last night after ingesting 1/4. It got into his head and tweeked him out for like 5 hours. We had the duct tape ready but we were able to talk him down.

The DVD by mail thing seems so silly now, but I guess it was what made Netflix a dominant player before the streaming thing was viable.


Anyone remember Realplayer from the early days of streaming video? So trash back then. Apparently it's still a thing though.
