Thanks. Have seen them all except for The Wire. Not on instant, but will add it to my DVD queue since it appears we enjoy the same shows.

Watched Europa Europa. I wouldn't go out of your way to watch it but it is worth a viewing.
Great show. Unfortunately Starz cancelled it and it seems pretty unlikely to be picked up by another network. Two great seasons though.I'm too lazy to go back through the thread, but I watched Party Down this weekend on what I remember being a recommendation from this thread. What a great show. I ended up watching the whole series in two days.
It may have been me hyping it. I loved it as well. Is there a season 3 coming?

Added to instant. Looks like they have all 3 vengeance trilogy movies on instant now. Chan-wook is breaking out.

I thought the first season started out "meh" but had potential. Stuck with it and it grew on me. LMAO by the season finale. looking forward to the 2nd season queued up. Hopefully it doesn't go downhill like "Better Off Ted" did. Season two was a huge drop off there.Great show.

Can't remember the exact title, but it was basically Van Halen: The Early Years, one of those "unofficial" biography-type things.
Everyone knows the legend: Pasadena backyard party band that drew thousands to keggers; "discovered" by Gene $immons; blew Sabbath off the stage, etc.
But it's really cool to hear people who were there talking about how undeniable the band was. They were just the perfect storm of prior influences, attitude, and talent, and everyone associated with them knew that magic was happening right before their eyes.
Sometimes we need to be reminded.

Just finished watching the 5th episode of Spartacus: Gods for the Arena. I've read they aren't calling this the 2nd season but just a filler since the main actor was diagnosed with cancer. But i've read he's cancer free now and can resume filming

Starz ran the prequel while Andy Whitfield was to get better. Unfortunately, his cancer returned and he gave his blessing to re-cast the role of Spartacus. Enter a near look-alike in Liam McIntyre.http://www.genreaddict.com/news/australian...e-new-spartacusthecatch said:where'd you see that? last I read his cancer was back, and they recast the part.derek19 said:Just finished watching the 5th episode of Spartacus: Gods for the Arena.

I'll have to start doing this. Starting with the finale and working my way back to the pilot has ruined many a good show for me.

The documentary Fat Head is a must watch for anyone serious about their health. It is very eye-opening.

A little bit campy, but a great great documentary.

I think Friday Night Lighst is the best show I've seen on TV in recent years and they have season 1 through 4 on Netflix. All seasons are good.

Do yourself a favor and just keep it to Season 1 only. S1 was definitely great and they should've ended it there. It went downhill quick.

Always liked the Presidio. I like the scene where Connery beats up Smasher from Over the Top with this thumb.

They should really leave that documentary up all the time, as it is an all time classic. Pure, pure gold.

Watched the sci-fi movie 'Moon' last night. THought it was very good.
Watched 'The Warriors' a few days ago off a rec from here and was very disappointed. Couldn't watch it all, and had to fast forward a ways through it. Too boring and just too stupid IMO. The gangs were just too wimpy and not believable at all. Too dated. Just couldn't get into it.

I don't know if this one has been mentioned or not yet, but I just started watching Survivors. It's a TV show from England about a flu that wipes out the majority of the worlds population. I've only seen the first two episodes, but so far so good!

One thing that a friend of mine added to all the other coincidences was something about the actual documentary that Thierry made. If you watch it, yes it was all over the place and switched far too fast from shot to shot...but, it was actually a very well put together film. For someone with zero film making abilities, besides just shooting the shots, it seems unlikely that Thierry would have been able to put together such a thing.
OMFG, I had no idea that was her. I went to high school with Cookie!

Good point, and looks like a good read at first glance. Looking forward to diving into this thing. Thanks.
