Netflix has been utter shite lately. It never has anything worth watching. Does anyone have red box? Other suggestions?

Anyone that says Netflix doesn't have anything worth watching is a person that watches TV 4-10 hours a day, minimum.

I actually may watch 1 hr max before I go to bed. I just didn't see anything worth my time. Is red box any good?

I agree - netflix is lean
No HBO shows
Classic movies = not many
They dumped the good BBC series like Foyle's War; I think they have 1 season of Gently

I've got Netflix and Hula.

My Sister's using my Hula and I'm using her Amazon Prime.

I watched Clerks 2 on there.Can't find anything great.

Prime has HBO shows.It has The Sapranos and I would assume all the rest.

eta:I just turned on "Don't be a Menace while Drinking your juice in the Hood".

eta:I watched something I really enjoyed on Netflix a few nights ago.
"Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid-An American Story".Really good Documentary that told the whole story.I enjoyed it.

I couldn't disagree with you more. Perhaps it's lacking on big time recent blockbuster type movies, but there are tons of interesting films, documentaries and tv shows on there. My queue is well over a hundred, and it just keeps growing.

I've never done redbox, so I can't speak to its quality.

I can always find plenty to watch on Netflix. However, anytime I go there looking for something specific, I rarely if ever find it.

I haven't looked into Red Box since they started, but it looked like more or less the same crap movies without the TV shows. If TV Shows don't do it for you, you might consider switching from streaming to the DVD plan. I still have both because it's really the only way to get current releases that are worth a damn.

The studios aren't ready to license good movies for streaming yet, and they may never be. Hopefully they'll eventually get the digital rental price comparable to Red Box.

No it hasn't.

But somehow I think you're cooler for arbitrarily hating on something...
