Re: Netflix
Streamed "Restrepo" the other night. Well worth it and made me feel like an ass for complaining about anything, ever. Everyone should watch it.
For the DVD folks, been getting "Freaks and Geeks". A really decent show about high school kids. Makes me literally LOL several times per episode, and me actually laughing is a pretty rare event. Especially at anything on TV.

We watched a documemtary called Exit Through the Gift Shop. It was really very good, if you're a fan of Banksy you will enjoy it

Holy cow. I just received some good news. I subscribe to Amazon Prime and get free shipping on almost anything sold by Amazon for $79 per year. I have the stuff shipped to a company that then couriers it to me overseas. Amazon just sent me a message that they are adding all of their live streaming content to my Prime benefits at no additional charge. I'll have to see how the content compares to Netflix. This could be a game changer.

Given that I was paying for Amazon Prime anyway it's a bonus for me, maybe they'll get more films as they go along.

Re: Netflix
After sifting through Amazon's content, I haven't seen anything that Amazon has that Netflix doesn't have too. Netflix has more. It's still a free bonus for something I already buy so I don't mind and they may add more.

Went to the cinema this afternoon with the little one to watch Gnomeo and Juliet it was ok, a fun 90 minutes with a couple of clever moments. Elton John is the exec producer and all the songs are his.
I had to laugh at the feuding neighbors at the beginning, the man is played by Richard Wilson, so you hear 'I don't belieeevve it' and a One Foot In The Grave style rant. I found this highly amusing, and then found it even more amusing that I was the only person in the cinema who got it
Just sat through Salt what a load of bollox

It was kind of amusing at the time though, only because it came out the same time all those spies got arrested, one of them being in Boston, so the extra local hype was fun. Probably not so fun other wise
She is a bit monging though, but the part was originally set for a bloke, can't remember who though.
