Netflix Recommendations Thread 3.0

Yeh, I don't hate the anime, I can appreciate it's well made but tonally it's just not really working for me. John Cho also just looks too old.

Struggling through ‘Brand new Cherry flavor’, it’s a bit sh1te. Might give up on it after 4 episodes.

Thanks to everyone who recommended The Chestnut Man, wouldn't have watched it otherwise, started the first episode and before I knew it, it was 4am and Episode 4....

Really engrossing.

Edit : i added in some netflix us additions earlier , i've taken them out now

Great to see V for Vendetta. Looking forward to watching .

47 metres down is definitely the next thing I'm watching on Netflix

They must have almost finished making the prequel before army of the dead came out cause it wasn't that long ago. Pretty awful movie with so many plot holes. I have zero interest in the new film

The 5th of November would be most apt to do so.

Thanks.

Wasn't totally sold on the first episode but will give it another few episodes to see if its worth committing too.
