āYou can be surprised by any one of 10 different movies available in the Netflix streaming library!ā
Guess I set the bar too high; ask for anything above a 4.5 rating and you get either Avengers or āPokĆ©mon the Movie: White: Victini and Zekromā.
I wish it had a button to add a movie to your queue.
I get frustrated with Netflix selection but itās nothing compared to the hair-pulling Blockbluster rages I used to haveā¦
Stiff Upper Lips
Actually, that looks not bad. I canāt tell if itās available on Netflix Canada though.
Iāve actually been watching a Netflix movie every night for the last four or six months, and Iām losing groundātheyāre adding them faster than I can watch them. These are all movies Iām legitimately interested in seeing, though not all of them are āgood moviesā; often Iāll be working while the movie is playing. In recent weeks Iāve watched Chinatown, Anatomy of a Murder, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, the Fistful of Dollars trilogy, Rocky I-V, Dirty Pretty Things, Blood Beast Terror, Grabbers, Monsters, and the Big Dollhouse.
If what you want are blockbusters from the last few years, Netflix is not for you. If you want to browse a random slice of the last eighty years of decent movies, itās actually pretty good. (If you want to watch a lot of cheap horror movies, itās exceptional.)
My Netflix spinner got me to āWhere Is Parsifal?ā a 1984 comedy starring Tony Curtis, Orson Welles, and Erik Estrada. SOLD!
I like the error message:
ERROR: Donāt poke around in caves, snakes will eat you.
It isnāt often that you get good advice from an error message. They usually just tell you what the problem is (no javascript enabled).
That should be easy to fix. Watch them and rate them appropriately. I get Avengers and 2 different pokemon choices. And thereās only one sci-fi/fantasy title in the 4-5 rating - Serenity.
Wonāt work. This looks to be using Netflixās general ratings, not your personal ratings.
