I gave it another try last night. I had forgotten what god awful actors the kids are, except for the one girl. Goonies they ain't. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

It's shocking as Dacre was born in 1994, almost a decade after the movie was released. Millie Bobby Brown is going to be in the next Godzilla movie |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25010 | OK, everybody here loves Stranger Things so much I forced myself to watch the first 3 eps of season one. I have in all seriousness never seen such bad acting in one place on a TV show in my life. It's painful to watch. Wynona Ryder is pitiful, half the time her constant hand gestures don't even match what's coming out of her mouth. The kids are pathetic, they aren't even good enough to be in a Saturday morning cereal commercial. They're stiff and non expressive, they step on each others lines like they're in a school play. The adults aren't much better. The older teens, it's like they're reading their lines off of cue cards. And if there's a story here I have yet to spot it. The girl who plays 11 is OK mainly because in 3 eps she's said about a dozen words. If by the 3rd ep, in an 8 ep season, they have not managed to make me care about what happens to a single character, that is a failure of a show. I take that back, I wish somebody would shoot Winona Ryder to get her to shut the F up. Good god.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Nareed Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 346 Posts: 12545 | Does anyone know of a way to find out what's currently streaming on Netflix? I've looked up some sites, but either they're out of date, or only consider "new" stuff. Specifically i want to find out whether Netflix in Mexico is already showing season 3 of Rick and Morty, and whether they're already showing the new Trek series. Otherwise I've no reason to resubscribe. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Just Watch has a version for Mexico https://www.justwatch.com/mx I think the answer is Star Trek Discovery is exclusive to CBS:All Access, while Rick and Morty Season 3 is available 10 EPISODIOS T3 E1 ‐ Cadena Rickpetua T3 E2 ‐ Tras el Rickazón verde T3 E3 ‐ Rickinillo T3 E4 ‐ Los Vindicadores 3: El Regreso de Matamundos T3 E5 ‐ La Conspiración del Roscazosca T3 E6 ‐ Descanso y Ricklajación T3 E7 ‐ Episode 7 T3 E8 ‐ Episode 8 T3 E9 ‐ Episode 9 T3 E10 ‐ Episode 10 |

Thank you!! That's a big help! Now I get to agonize on whether to resubscribe now, or let one full season of newest Trek accumulate.... ;) Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

It's helpful because it will allow you to filter . For example "all comedy TV shows on Netflix released this year". produces 25 titles.
For example "all comedy Movies on Netflix released this year". produces 100+ titles.
