r/netflix

I love the service as a whole, but who does Netflix think they are putting up an amazing show, only to cancel it at a cliff hanger. Why can’t Netflix make series instead of investing in one or two seasons of a show just to cancel it. I understand that it has to make money, but focus on quality not quantity. It’s so frustrating

For me, it would be certain genres and recommendation categories, like Teen, Teen TV Shows, and stuff like that.

Not just “show me less of this,” because Netflix still finds a way to sneak it back in. I mean a real setting where I can say: I’m not interested in this category, don’t recommend it, don’t put it on my homepage, don’t keep pushing it, simply NEVER show it again!

What’s the first thing you’d take down or change?

Did no one think to tell Kevin Hart how fucking cringe he looks on funny AF? It’s literally like 70% him flexing and stroking his ego and 30% jokes. Loving the 30% jokes! But Kevin Hart is like disgusting me. Ew brother.

I’m late to the party and only just hearing about the books now that Netflix launched the series. Honestly, it feels like I’m watching a messed-up episode of Black Mirror where we’re not that far off from reality.

Yes, parts of it are dramatized, but seeing what’s been happening in the U.S. over the past few years, it doesn’t feel like a huge stretch. We had the storming of the Capitol, women’s rights are gradually being taken away, and classic literature is being banned in schools.

Given the current state of the world, this series definitely hits a few nerves.

Whats wrong with people? These instagram comments are sickening. People trying to defend what she's done and calling for her sentence to be reduced, there's been petitions for a re-trial, and her supporters seem to increasing everyday. I am confused as to who these people are and have they not seen the video of the crash

I just watched remarkably bright creatures on Netflix, and it's honestly such a cute and wholesome movie. I just love the pacing and the various relationships shown in the movie. I absolutely adored it.

I would love to watch some other wholesome movies like this.

Other similar movies that I've found: Jules, Project Hail Mary, A Man named Otto

Looking for more movie recommendations like this. Thanks!

Shyamalan never graduated to mature themes, didn't he?

Trap has a high school level understanding of psychology. The "profiler" is laughably an improbable individual who can precisely detect the exact behavior of an unidentified person in a concert event.

It cracks me up when the profiler would say something like "he's already running out of options" without having identified the murderer.

It was just too plain stupid.

I don’t know when this happened but Netflix does not have genres or categories anymore, and I feel myself have a legitimate anxiety attack every time I try to watch something on there because it’s impossible to navigate now.

I feel like I’m going to cancel because of this, and was genuinely curious if anyone else felt the same way? I watch a lot of documentaries but literally feel like I CANT watch anything else because of this stupid algo and UX change

My opinion, I 100% think the car accident was intentional. I think either she didn’t think she would’ve survived either, or it could’ve been a scare tactic that just went too far. Her parents are huge enablers, she’s never had to take accountability for her own actions, and even while paying the consequences now, she still doesn’t think she’s wrong. I have so many opinions and questions, still.

On another note, I have been seeing that this documentary left things out, like I guess she was seen scoping out the scene days before? Wondering if there’s any insight on any other information left out.

In the end, I will provide timestamps.

First of all, I believe there are almost no limits in stand up comedy. But I can't accept this kind of ped*phile jokes. Especially considering THAT crowd and recent events.

This very moment there are countless children all over the world, locked in rooms or basements, waiting to be abused. Forced to satisfy rich clients, abductors, or sick relatives. From a few months old up to teenagers. How is anything about this funny? And how is it funny to accuse a crowd of being child molesters knowing very well that it might actually be true? Are we suddenly okay with it? There is no justice served so we'll just let it go forever? Are we really so desensitized?

Obviously it's a rhetorical question. I don't believe those who wrote these jokes had as their primary purpose to make us laugh. The reason is nothing new, they want to make ped*philia appear like a silly little habit of rich people. Enough to be ashamed of but not enough to face any consequences.

Timestamps (time remaining, not time past):

 

2:36:32 – Slow start with a reference to pizza.

1:49:18 – Viagra and “There are a lot of P*dophiles here”.

1:48:13 – Child M*lester

1:35:12 – God, P*dos, Epstein Island. Classic combo.

1:15:16 –  Man actually said “Any F*ckable 10-year-old”.

0:49:10 –  Seems like 10 is the perfect age.

Looking for something like Don't F With Cats, Love Con, Mindless Swindler, The Crash, Gabby Petito..stuff similar to those.. what are some other good ones??? I feel like I have seen almost everything, even ones that are not on Netflix. I love documentaries especially true crime..

She was a hero. She went through a tough situation and sacrificed a lot to the point of almost ruining her life to bring justice to Parsons. To me that is impressive and very honorable even if she almost lost herself in the process and defied her feelings and the police. So, I hope that if she ever reads this that she knows that this whole thing was her “Hero’s Journey” and she came on top in the end. Even on drugs, she was able to push further to the point of looking for the bike in the middle of nowhere.

I didn’t expect much but good god, that was bad. The first one was clever, unique, and well written/executed. This one was not that, not even a little bit. Plot was nonexistent, effects were laughable, the grabber wielding an axe while ice skating. It felt like 2 hrs just to get 15 mins worth of backstory on the grabber and the truth about what happened to the kids mom. Which could have been interesting! If they only cared enough to house these plot points in a story that was worth while. Why is there an old phone booth in the middle of this camp? Why is there a winter camp in Colorado that closes when it snows?

Most importantly, why such positive reviews for this pile of garbage?

I was shocked at how overlooked Cabinet feels! For as eclectic as it was, as maybe niche the weird fiction that it riffed on was, each episode -I think like Del Toro's own work- is only going to get fully appreciated with rewatches. Mark my words, it's going to hit hard down the line. Rupert Grint was splendid. Cool to see him to a project for the fun of it. I need to see him do some more horror acting. WHY DIDNT ANYONE RECCOMEND THIS TO ME SOONER

I am so mind blown, and so confused. I do think she did it purposely, from the evidence presented but then again, why did she do it? and what exactly happened? Its such a mystery omg

I highly suggest anyone who believes Mackenzie Shirilla to be innocent after watching the documentary to read the texts between her and Dom. It is around 31K+ pages and will certainly take you a while, but WOW is it telling.

Constant manipulation, name-calling, verbal abuse, showing up to his house unwanted. The texts begin in early 2020, so she was around 15. I have never seen such behavior displayed by a 15-year-old. Dom would break up with her, and she would threaten to kill herself. Their relationship was volatile and toxic, and I believe Mackenzie would’ve eventually hurt/killed someone else if she did not kill Dominic and Davion. She is right where she belongs.

This has been said many times, but her parents truly failed her, and it’s astounding to see they STILL have their heads in the sand 4 years later. It was interesting to see how they never expressed any type of emotion in the doc when it came to Dom and Davion but only when it came to their daughter being in prison. Truly vile human beings.

Additionally, it has come out that they did not feature any of Dom’s friends in the doc. Bubba and Rosie were not Dom’s friends, but Mackenzie’s and I do believe they were acquainted with Davion. I’m disappointed only Mackenzie’s friends were featured because it displayed a level of bias to me.

I hope Mackenzie never gets out.
