    Was trying to figure out what I'm watching tonight and It's very obvious Netflix is spending much less on feature films. Sad.

    Possibly relevant, from this week: Amazon and Netflix want to control the market for deep, edgy indie films, too

    It's been a long move from "second rate video store" to "second run HBO."

    Yes, I'm not entirely sure why I subscribe to Netflix anymore. Rarely watch it.

    Same. Lots of things on my radar. To be fair, it's mostly deep, edgy second run HBO indie films.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    I'm much more likely to watch TV on Hulu or HBO Now. And the movies I watch at home usually come from the library.

    Hulu is the one that's become almost worthless to me. My queue went from having over 200 titles to a pitiful 23 (almost all of which I've already seen), and it's not just the Criterion collection, either. On January 1st, they lost almost every movie they had that was made before 1970.

    Film Struck has some great stuff...they just need to improve their player and get the apps ready on other platforms.

    Just watched a movie I had never even heard of called Camp X-Ray. But it starred Kristen Stewart, so I gave it a shot, and yeah, this is some seriously powerful stuff. Yet another stellar performance from her, in a movie that's 100% character and performance-driven, which she totally excels at. Really just an all around nice little surprise of a film. It's on Netflix now, too, so I'd say it's certainly worth checking out.

    I put in the queue when it hit, but I'm not in the mood for politics stuff at the moment. I'll get to it eventually.

    That's not even out in theaters yet. It's about to, which is why she just hosted SNL.

    The one I'm waiting on is Certain Women. I'm pretty sure that one already came out, but it never ended up releasing anywhere near me.

    I've heard about it so much that it feels like it's been out for years. I figured at film festivals and a two-week theater run. Oops.

    If they start to lose TV shows like Star Trek, Buffy and Futurama, I will start to prepare for a life without Netflix.
    Well, there goes Buffy (and Firefly and The X-Files). Is it only a matter of time before the others depart? Will I keep my promise?!

    Fuck. I was scheduling up Firefly for a rewatch.

    Though it's only $12 on Amazon to buy the full season on HD. That's cheaper than a movie ticket.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Available on Hulu (at least, Buffy is) if that's a thing you have.
