So I've been using "IMDb Ratings for Netflix" for a while and always worked great, but lately it's been a little wonky. Sometimes it can't find the movie/show on imdb or it matches the movie/show to the wrong imdb listing.

I like this extension because it's tiny and doesn't have a bunch of features I don't need.

Here's the chrome browser extension if you want to look at it:

My question is, has anyone tried another extension that may be more accurate?

Considering OA is getting a lot of mentions, I'll be adding it to my watch list. I recently added some others that I'm not sure about, but will be asking you guys later for opinions. Thanks
 
yeah OA is great. It's a bit weird the first season, but they bring everything that happened in the first season together nicely in the second season.

its kind of like a combination of Stranger Things and Sense 8.

That sounds good since I really liked Sense 8, though could've done without some of the sex scenes.

So I have these in my watch list which I have not seen. Have you guys seen these and what do you think of the ones you've seen.
  • Bates Motel
  • The Sinner
  • The Last Kingdom (pretty sure I'll like this)
  • Shooter
  • Godless
  • The Fall
  • Black Sails
  • Retribution (meh not sure about this one)
  • Sherlock (Robert Downey made me hate Sherlock Holmes :p so not sure about this one)
  • The OA
 
on that list the OA is tops, but The Sinner is good. the Last Kingdom was ok. If you like that time period movie, I really recommend the Outlaw King. It takes place right after Braveheart ended. Its about how Robert the Bruce became the Scots greatest hero, even though in Braveheart he was sort of an ass. I think this is a much closer representation of how the Scots won there freedom from England......check it out

Shooter is another good one on that list.
 
Thank you I forgot about Altered Carbon. Joel Kinnaman from that series was also in "The Killing" which I really enjoyed (on netflix). It concluded, so perfect for binge watching.

I saw Outlaw King and thought it was good.

Black Mirror is also in my list, but forget to mention it in my previous post. So I'll be starting one of these shows in my list next week.

Side Note:
I'm thrilled that Netflix is improving now that they have a sense of urgency since they are finally getting some real competition (Disney Plus). Disney has more content than any other company.

Yeah I love Joel Kinnaman he's a great actor. It's why I'm gonna start to watch Hanna on Prime (unfortunately).

Yeah they are investing a lot of money to make great content that's for sure.

I'm kind of sad that they canceled all of the Marvel series they had going. I really liked them all including Iron Fist which it seems everyone hated.

After they added Dancing Queens, I immediately cancelled my netflix sub. Original 'material' like that, I don't care to support, and won't. No wonder so many are confused about their identity... when shows like this exist, its no mystery as to why. Don't get me wrong, I fully believe 'to each their own'... but showing little boys in full drag?! Ughs!!!
 
Is Netflix in trouble?
Well we all know There's gonna be some new streaming competition. Most notably Disney, which is the largest content holder. It doesn't help that netflix is in the habit of canceling shows(recently canceled the OA). Glad I didn't watch the OA as it would've been a waste of time. :mad:

In Q2 reports it's revealed that netflix lost 126k subscribers in the US. :eek:

Shots fired?
Disney recently announced their pricing. It will be the same as netflix, $12.99. Now here's the kicker... For $12.99 you will get 3 services: Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+. :eek:

Thoughts...
As consumers we will clearly gain from this in the immediate future. Once things settle down and the competitors know where they stand and are in their rightful lanes, prices will most likely go up.

Chime in if you'd like. ;)

Add Money Heist to your list, it's a must see, it's dubbed in English but it's a great show
 
Will do, thanks. And glad it's dubbed in english.

So far in the past 5 months I've managed to watch 3 shows from my list (Shooter, Godless, Black Sails).
Enjoyed all 3.
 
just finished Minndhunter season 2.........i sure hope they keep this one going cuz it is brilliant. it is about the initial years where fbi starts to learn about profiling to catch serial killers. they initially started to do this by interviewing serial killers that have been caught. they interviewed people (if you want to call them that) like Ed Kemper and Manson among others.

it is such a great show.
