Has anyone ever used Netflix? I have. Here are the DVDs that I have gotten from it (in no particular order):

  1. Hairspray (newer version)
  2. Homestarrunner.com: Everything Else, Volumes 2 and 3
  3. Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House
  4. Bye Bye Birdie
  5. Arsenic and Old Lace
  6. A Shot In the Dark
  7. Bringing Up Baby
  8. Annie Get Your Gun
  9. Houseboat
  10. Around the World In 80 Days
  11. Pee-wee's Big Adventure
  12. Jason and the Argonauts
  13. Smokey and the Bandit
  14. What a Way To Go
  15. Ocean's Eleven (original version)
  16. Robin and the Seven Hoods
  17. Sweeny Todd (this is the one we have right now)

That's pretty much all that I remember (there are probably a few I missed; if there are, I'll put them in). So, has anyone here ever used Netflix? If so, what did you get?

Had it, rented Along Came a Spider, Borat, and Mission Impossible 3. Still have 'em. Won't return 'em either. Actually, my mom threw away Borat.

My hallmate has Netflix. One day, they just sent him an empty sleeve instead of his movie. Then he had to have a phone conversation (with a girl, lawl) explaining that he wanted to watch Star Trek the movie II. Much laughter was had at his expense.

*Lingering on the edge of his seat* YES DID HE?

Netflix looks cool, but gino mentioned Gamefly and I'm very interested in picking up classic tomb raider games again.
Hope you enjoy Sweeny Todd, though. My parents flipped out at all the gore, and I guess they have right to, they watch Bollywood films.

Yeah, he got it the next day, but not after having to physically say over the phone "Yes, I want to watch Star Trek, The Wrath of Khan..."

I never did see that one. My mom only saw that one and she told me that I would not like that one, with all that gore going on...

Well, anyway, it's been sent back already. Our next movie that should be coming is "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington".

Oh god, I hated Jason and the Argonauts. I mean, I'm not one to fall asleep during a movie, but this...oi, I just went lights out when I started watching it. BO-RING!

Hey, how did you like Peewee's big adventure? My parents made me watch it and I found it pretty funny. "On a night, just like tonight..."

Oh, it was hilarious! Of course, I love Pee-wee Herman in general.
