Ohhhhh I see. It's not quite that way, but from a DSL-availability standpoint ... yes. There are satellite packages but the bastards want real money for that. cn

I was talking about pumping sunshine, you are just too damn fast and crammed another comment in before mine. I don't think I really need to elaborate.

I can't believe you guys got me to watch that. That was the weirdest movie I've seen in awhile. And to think I thought that "girl" was hot..

"54" is a pretty good movie. Its about the club studio 54 in the 70's and is based on a true story. Mike Meyers plays Steve Rubell, the owner. Its a very peculiar role for him but he plays it flawlessly. I think its still on streaming.

Matthew Broderick has a slew of good movies on Netflix. Apparently no one likes him anymore, but I still do. I've been on a kick, going back and going through stuff he did over the years that I missed.
Of course they have Ferris Bueller.
And:
Young Broderick in WarGames, excellent.
Adolescent Broderick in Piloxi Blues with fucking Christopher WALKEN playing his drill seargant!! Mad good.
Adult Broderick in Wonderful World, where he plays a grumpy editor (actual Broderick shining through, taking inspiration from life?) who's down on his luck but ends up turning his attitude around and becoming less of a dick. I liked it a lot.
Adult Broderick with crazy dad played by Alan Alda in "Diminished Capacity"--road tripping with crazy dad to try to sell his beloved old ass baseball card so he doesn't have to move into a loony bin... I enjoyed this as well.
Broderick has a lot of charisma, and I find his performances often appealing regardless of the script. (Except the Cable Guy, nobody could save that one.)
Regarding Henry is an excellent old Harrison Ford movie about a flashy lawyer who gets taken down a peg when he gets shot in the head and loses most of his motor functions and memory at once and has to start again from scratch. Excellent piece.
Check out "The Vicious Kind" I like this one a lot. Dude from Parks and Recreation (Adam Scott) is in it, but playing a very serious role. He does it really well, too. They've also got that dude who played the white supremacist asshole in Oz playing his dickhead father... quite enjoyable piece about an extremely jaded person's interpretation of first love.
There are more... so many more. I have been on a major netflix kick lately... sussing out the unknowns and the unlikely-but-goods.

"Shooter" with Mark Wahlberg and Danny Glover was surprisingly enjoyable. If you like sniper stuff, it's a lot of fun. Bob Lee Swagger is basically the most bad ass dude ever. (It's based on a book, and anyone who reads the books probably thinks this movie is terrible, but I didn't read the books and found it enjoyable enough for a hardboiled vengeance type flick.
Get The Gringo is the best thing I've seen Mel Gibson do since Conspiracy Theory or Payback, whichever he did more recently. Awesome flick about a bank robber who busts across the mexican border with 2 million dollars but gets taken in by mexican authorities and put in this crazy mexican jail/village... Gibson plays a TOTAL BAD ASS here, on par with his performance in PAYBACK, but perhaps with a bit more moral conscience.
Fucking awesome performance though, and the setting is just fascinating.

To be fair I guess these aren't "must watches" but they are easily overlooked movies that are actually quite good.

They used to have Gangland, and I'd say that was the most enlightening thing ever put on Netflix. But now that that's gone... I'm not really sure...Paul Mooney is pretty enlightening, watch the 2 things he has one Netflix, I think they are called "Know your history" and "Jesus was Black, so was Cleopatra"...
