NUance Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 Dr. Strangelove. An oldie, but a goodie. Truly a classic. Watched that for the first time a couple months ago. Definitely different but definitely entertaining. I watched it but a long long time ago. I think I vaguely remember showing a redneck guy riding a nuclear bomb in flight. Right? Or perhaps different movie Yeah, Slim Pickens. He was the most competent character in the film. Quote Link to comment

Or perhaps different movie Yeah, Slim Pickens. He was the most competent character in the film. Tonight, I rewatched it. Mostly black comedy/satire film but some parts, serious.....thinker. B/W film . I'm surprised B52 cockpit layout was pretty accurate. Below deck, radar bombardier (young James Earl Jones) and navigator side-by-side. And upper deck, pilots and reverse seats, EWO and radar gunner (enlisted). Someday, could be tomorrow or 30 years in the future, Ruskie or U.S. wacko and screw-loose sub captain and crew will launch a nuclear weapons attack. 16 or more independent missile tubes with MIRV warheads. 3 to 4 thousands times stronger than Hiroshima bomb per one sub. We got fourteen nuclear missiles subs. Honestly, cold war is still alive. Wargames, Red October, Crimson Tide films....... Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I'm not watching it on Netflix but HBO's VEEP with Julia Louis Dreyfus is hilarious. Quote Link to comment
Hooked on Huskers Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I just watched 1974 Texas Chainsaw Massacre (first time). My advice: waste of time. Terrible and overacting casts. Made bottom10 movies IMO. I suppose Dahmer's fans loved it. BTW, I missed semi-trailer truck driver in final scene......... alive or dead? Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Netflix Roulette Will Cure Your Utter Inability to Pick a Movie You can have the site randomly pick from every single gosh darn thing that's on Netflix, or you can limit it to either just TV shows or just movies. You can also relegate your choices to specific genres, like anime or comedy. http://netflixroulette.net/ 1 Quote Link to comment
Hoosker Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I'm just starting Season 3 of Breaking Bad. I had completely closed myself off from the show until I got a chance to watch them all in order. Wow. It's a pretty heavy show so far. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Watched Mr. Nobody yesterday. Weird. Weird. Weird. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 The Inexplicable Universe with Neil deGrasse Tyson. Just Tyson doing some lectures. So yes, it's worth watching. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Anyone else here ever have problems with Netflix's audio getting out of synch with the video? It sometimes happens to me. But if I back out of the show to the display menu and then start the show again it generally goes away. Tonight however the audio/video problem is the worst it's ever been. Within ten seconds of watching the show it gets a couple seconds out of synch. For kicks I let it run for a couple of minutes and the audio got nearly 20 seconds ahead of the video. Not sure what the problem is, but it's unwatchable. : / edit: The problem seems specific to a particular show. In this case, House is the show that's f'ing up. Other shows seems to play okay.

It's a new show to Netflix IIRC, they must be still working some bugs out. I'm thinking that will be my next show to watch once I get done with Breaking Bad. Quote Link to comment
