Is so vanilla
I missed it at the cinema, really wanted to watch it because of that actor chap who was also in Borgen. I tried to d/l but couldn't find a decent version that had Eng subtitles.

Watched Advantageous (2015) yesterday. Sci-fi with an old school, Asimov/Tarkovsky feel to it. Grown-up, dystopian sci-fiHighly recommend it.
just popping it on now, from the reviews it sounds bang on the type of thing I like but yet I've never once came across it on netflix... the recommendations are shite!
Is there just a big list somewhere of everything on there?

Another vote for "A Hijacking". Watched it at the weekend. Excellent film.
I also recently watched a Norwegian film "In Order of Disappearance" which was a lot of fun. Rather violent but quirky and funny.
"Margin Call" is also a bit of a corker.

I can second/third/whatever the first two.

Margin call is good.

Can recommend The Help, film set in 1960s Mississippi.

I've just started watching American Horror Story and it would appear from the titles that Americans have a strong fear of Victorian babies. Which is odd.

FWIW....I'm quite enjoying American Horror Story
Jessica Lange is ACE!
I did have to start to wonder why I was watching it alone in the flat beyond midnight. Which I think is a good sign!

"Turn: Washington's Spies" is brilliant.
It's based on the true story of the Culper Spy Ring which infiltrated the British Army during the American War of Independence.
Great acting, lavishly produced, and some pukka nasty baddies!
We watched both seasons (10 episodes apiece) on Amazon Instant, but series 1 at least is on US Netflix. It takes a couple of episodes to get going whilst the characters are all introduced but then rocks along nicely.

Just started season 2 of American Horror Story. Jessica Lange continues to be utterly superb!

I've been having some big problems with my proxies trying to use US netflix recently. Mediahint was suddenly blocked, Hola stopped working, I'm using dotvpn now but it's very slow, cuts out, and I don't like it because it feels dodgy. I know they said they were going to crack down on vpns but dammit 
Anyone got any recs for reliable methods?
Edit: of course, after a couple of weeks of not checking, I've just re-enabled mediahint and it's working again. Hopefully it stays that way. I'm right into the fourth season of Fringe and it's bloody excellent. And I've been binging reruns of Parks and Rec to cheer me up.

Just finished S4 of Fringe. Excellent season, best of the lot so far. I do not like the premise for S5 so as far as I'm concerned the series ended with S4 and S5 is merely a spin-off. Of course, I haven't watched S5 yet so it might surprise me.

I got it from some reddit link a while back. I think there are instructions down the page in this thread. Even though I don't have the dev console activated, every time I load chrome it tells me I do, but I just dismiss the message and all is fine. Alternatively, just disable it when you're not using it.

Just added this to my list as my mates are raving about it:
Supermensch: The Legend of Shep Gordon (2013)
A 2013 American documentary film about talent manager Shep Gordon, produced and directed by Mike Myers in his directorial debut. The film is the account of Gordon's career and his clients such as Alice Cooper, Blondie, Teddy Pendergrass, and Pink Floyd.

No I'm pretty sure that was 8ball...
Set up a new profile for the kids so you you keep their viewing habits quarantined from yours.
My sister is coming to stay with me for a bit while she recovers from surgery. I've taken the free month trial from Netflix and installed it on a tablet for her. Cheers for the recommendations everyone.
