Just watched "The Old Guard" . Holy f'n shit it was an amazing movie. Hope they make this into a series, because they left it off as if that is what they could do. I know it's based off a comic, and Charlize Theron is a f'n bad ass in it.

I’ll have to check this out! I’m weary of Netflix movies cause most of them just plain suck (looking at you, Fatal Affair) but I’m so starved for new movies!

Since you're starved for new movies right now, maybe now would be a good time to watch some classics you have missed?
Just saying this might be a great month to finally watch Conan 1982...

No see that’s the thing, I miss “new” movies not just movies I haven’t seen. Mostly I miss going to the movies.

I really don't think you'll be disappointed with this one. I really loved it.

I know it all comes down to taste, but here as some of my favorite Netflix movies that I thought were really really good:

Love Wedding Repeat
Eurovision Song Contest (if you are not a Will Ferrell fan, pass on this)
The Half of It
Horse Girl
The Wiloughbys
The Platform
Coffee & Kareem (gave me a very 90s comedy type feel that I haven't seen from a recent film in awhile)
Polar
The Perfection
Unicorn Store
Klaus


They may not all by Netflix originals, but still solid films IMO.

Transformers: The War for Cybertron is the best 3 hours of Transformers since the original series.

This is the comment I was going to ask for just now

But no love for Beast Wars?

Beast Wars and Prime are both great, but this is just so right and concise in my opinion.

Agreed! Man I watched like the first five episodes before I passed out from exhaustion last night.

Season 2 of Transformers War for Cybertron (Earthrise) is out, and just like the first season, it does not miss one bit. Season 1 is like taking the first episode of the Gen 1 series and turing it into a season long episode. Same for season 2. I want Season 3 now! Have to wait until May 30th...UGH!

Anyone else watching Godzilla: Singular Point?

I'm 5 episodes in. Really interesting so far.

Midnight Mass is fucking phenominal!

I'm not a big purveyor of Netflix but I recently watch a documentary on Sylvester Stallone called Sly that I quite enjoyed. A bunch of new things I never knew about Stallone and definitely a bit more insightful than most might assume.

I'm tempted to do a month of Netflix to catch this and the Arnold one.

The Arnold documentary is on my radar. If I don't do it soon I never will.
