+1 for Netflix. Been a member for a couple years now. Very happy with the service, and the selection is great! The idea that you can also watch movies online helps smooth out the bumps between deliveries.

Let me know what you think about The assassination of Jesse James. I might add it to my list.

Just watched Aliens vs Predator 2. It was decent.

I watched Iron Man the other night and it was awsome! Great movie and not that far fetched.

Switched from Blockbuster to Netflix! More movies and better customer support!

I never have a problem with Blockbuster. In fact, when I moved two years ago and totally misplaced 3 DVD's, they immediately sent out 3 more & didn't even charge me!

I love this feature and Netflix can't even compete because they have no retail outlets. Now, I'm sure Blockbuster may very well close their retail doors as it becomes less and less financially sensible for them but it's great being able to drop off a DVD I've ordered & received in the mail that I've either watched or something that I'm just not feeling and pick up a new DVD (at no cost) at the store. Immediately when they scan in the DVD I've dropped off, they send out another from my online queue so I'll likely get a 4th DVD (instead of my cap of 3) in a day. And I'll have a week to watch that DVD I picked up in the store down the street before I have to turn it back in.

Hope it wasn't the first 'Crash' with Roseanna Arquette & James Spader......oooooof. I had to watch that (uncomfortably) with my Dad in the theater. Yikes!

Been considering for some time, came across the thread week or so ago and decided yesterday to give NetFlix a test run. Pleasantly surprised to find they have quite a collection to choose from and you can also order DVD's pending their release. Being a PBS, and BBC whore, stoked to find a hugh selection local video stores do not offer. I am In!!. :tu Can't wait. :tt

NetFlix :tu We usually have two movies and a series. Turnaround is usually about a day or two. Just finished the last season of the Wire.

BTW -- I thought that "Assassination of Jesse James" was an intriguing movie.

I like Netflix for the selection. I like a lot of older movies, and they have a great selection. Just got in Spencer's Mountain with Henry Fonda. One of my favorites.

I love Netflix, here is my next 20 or so movies in my queue:

Life: Season 1: Disc 3
The Dark Knight
The X-Files: I Want to Believe
WALL-E
Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Indiana Jones/Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
The Prestige
The Snow Walker
Lars and the Real Girl
Brothers
The Wind That Shakes the Barley
Homemade Hillbilly Jam
24: Season 1: Disc 1
The Devil Came on Horseback
Casino Royale
Flags of Our Fathers
Iron Man
Hancock

Just finished Hellboy 2. It was a great movie.

jioned the first year they came out. love netflix

I've been a Net-Flicker for about 5 years. Never had a problem, my turnaround is about 2 days. I haven't even set foot in a Blockbuster in years.

Here's my at home list and the 1st five DVDs in my queue:

At home:
Idiocracy
Mad Men: Season 1: Disc 2 (LOVE this show!!!!!)
300

In Queue:
24: Redemption
Lord of War
Back to the Future Part II
Gone Baby Gone

I have been a member of Netflix for almost 5 years myself (Two more months to go) and I LOVE every minute of it. I watch a lot of movies when I have time and at one time had more rated/reviewed movies than their paid Movie Critic LOL.

I currently have 461 movies in my Queue (I watch a lot of foreign flicks, weird movies, as well as blockbusters) and the 4 that I got in today were Hancock, Tropic Thunder, HellBoy II and Harakiri.
