You thought it was better than the HBO one?

I mean there’s a better documentary with a supercut of those two.

I felt the HBO one contextualized the crowd a lot better to lay the ground work for the mayhem that ensued.

Netflix did a better job at making the promoters look like buffoons using their own words.

 

I haven't seen the supercut, but comparing the HBO doc (Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage) and the Netflix one (Trainwreck: Woodstock 99)...

The HBO doc felt like propaganda to me. The Netflix one was more balanced all around, and in my opinion, just better filmmaking.

 

My wife and I finished How to Build a Sex Room on Netflix. It’s like one of those home renovation shows on HGTV. But an old British lady turns a room in someone’s house into a sex room. She’s like a sex Marry Poppins. The families are really diverse and interesting. Only eight episodes, but I’d watch more.

 

We are interested in this. Glad it comes recommended

 

Man the boomer energy from the Woodstock promoters is fucked. I enjoyed the Netflix doc more since it was more straight forward on focusing on the flaws of the festival than social commentary on the late 90’s like the HBO doc did.

 

What are people's thoughts on the new Sandman show out of curiosity?

 

It's alright. I like how in comparison to other comic book shows the format of it actually feels like a volume of a comic book TPB, in that the season is made up of three or four mini-arcs that build up to a culmination after 10 issues instead of just one big arc.

 

I’m two episodes in and love it so far. Very faithful to the source material and I like the cast.

 

Did ya'll know there's a gaming section of Netflix? Apparently it's been out since November and a whopping LESS THAN ONE PERCENT of Netflix users have utilized the service.

I knew one was coming because they announced a Stranger Things game for it, I believe. But it wasn’t live at that time and I don’t know why I would have ever bothered to look it up later.

 

If you like the series you will probably like it. It follows the source material close enough to be interesting. I don’t think I would be very into it if I hadn’t read the series though.

 

My wife and I finished watching all of MASH recently and we started All in the Family tonight. The first episode was a lot to process haha.

 

I hate Oliver in the OC but his dancing around while Marissa is rushing to him thinking he OD'd is kinda iconic. I feel like he's the worst but he knows he's the worst

 

I mean the games look absolutely dreadful

 

I fall in and out of shows so fast but I think I might start young justice since I’ve heard good things about it

 

Young Justice is so fucking good. The last two seasons were amazing

 

@Jason Tate @Meerkat finally got around to watching the first 3 episodes of Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin.

It's definitely much different vibe than PLL but it's alright. Is say give it a shot if you don't have anything else to watch.

 

Looks weird, but I'll watch

 

I haven’t really interacted with the new interface yet, but Prime Video looks a little cleaner on my Samsung tv now.

 

Disney Plus and Hulu are getting steep price hikes

 

That sucks. Of course they're all going to ad-supported tiers now. Hopefully Spotify users still get to keep their free subscriptions.

 

Looks like Netflix’s UI

 

More reason to bundle with Hulu

 

Random: I would love to be invited to some Plex libraries! Mine is rather unimpressive but I’d happily return the favor.

 

Weird move for Disney since they just reported a gigantic growth quarter. Sounds like something that will stifle it.
