In Netflix UK's defense--they had the final episodes of Breaking Bad before the US. Did you know you can trick your computer to watch netflix from any locale? At least here you can.

I laughed out loud a few times, but I'm glad I didn't pay to see it.

I like James Franco but not as much when he pairs with Rogen.

I picture those two guys sitting around in their houses in the hills of Los Angeles, getting high, and coming up with stupid ideas for movies that are only funny to them in their own minds.

I thought This is the End was horrible.

Maybe I'm just getting old and turning into one of those "get off my lawn" type of old farts.

Grandma's Boy made me laugh way harder than any of the stoner movies these guys have done.

It's because Franco doesn't actually smoke weed. He's a poser.

Whiplash - 11/10

Quite simple...do yourself the favor of seeing this movie. Period.

I've never been a fan of Rogen movies for that reason. His dialogue has always felt forced to me. Unfunny. Scripted. Stilted.

Runningman 9/10

How can you not love old 80s classics with the terminator. This one is especially good when the film is set in 2017 and they all pretend and act to be futuristic but are so hardcore 80s. Plus, Jim Brown is Fireball and how can you hate on any movie with Jim Brown

Agreed. Throw that Galafinakis guy in that category for me too.

Have you seen the show Bored to Death? It's one of the few things he's been in that i've liked.

No. I don't really watch TV. I can't stand the commercials. If It's on Netflix or Popcorn Time I suppose I could check it out.

My girlfriend was watching the Between the Ferns show that he did with the Youtube app on my 360. It was terrible.

It's on Amazon Prime. I liked it a lot.

I have the student version. A 1 year subscription is like 40 some dollars for me, which includes free 2 day shipping on items bought on amazon. I think the non-student version is twice the price, but 1 day shipping. It's well worth it if you buy a lot on amazon, and their selection of shows includes most of the good HBO shows like The Sopranos and The Wire, among other things not offered by netflix.

It's 80 pounds here. About 120 dollars at the minute I think.

Dead Man - A+

Watched it today on netflix, here's how it's described:

"Dead Man is a 1995 American Western film written and directed by Jim Jarmusch. It stars Johnny Depp, Gary Farmer, Billy Bob Thornton, Iggy Pop, Crispin Glover, John Hurt, Michael Wincott, Lance Henriksen, Gabriel Byrne, and Robert Mitchum (in his final film role). The film, dubbed a "Psychedelic Western" by its director,[4] includes twisted and surreal elements of the Western genre. The film is shot entirely in black-and-white. Neil Young composed the guitar-seeped soundtrack with portions he improvised while watching the movie footage. Some consider it the ultimate postmodern Western, and related to postmodern literature such as Cormac McCarthy's novel, Blood Meridian.[5][6] Like much of Jarmusch's work, it has acquired status as a cult film."

Jarmusch is an independent director, but the cast in this is kickass. I love westerns and this was surprisingly funny and had a really cool vibe. Instantly became one of my favorite movies, and one of my favorite westerns. Fits well with many of the revisionist westerns made in the 60s and 70s. Just a cool take on the western genre. It's pretty slow-moving at times which is a criticism i've read many people use against it, but I didn't feel like it dragged at all.
