Netflix suggestions?

[salejolie]

I'm ready to bundle up and veg out this weekend. What are you watching? I've already watched The Get Down, and hubs says i can't watch A Different World without him. Give me your thoughts and recs.

[dr.girlfriend]

Have you done the Daredevil/Jessica Jones/Luke Cage ones? Otherwise I think a lot of my suggestions are HBO -- Sense8, Westworld. Dope is a movie on Netflix now that is great.

I haven't watched yet but a friend said Chewing Gum is really good.

[salejolie]

I think I watched most of JJ. I think I'll give Luke Cage a shot. I haven't heard of chewing gum,I'll look for that when I get on tonight.

I haven't watched Netflix in awhile and can't remember my password!
Anyway, I mostly watch documentaries and I really liked God loves Uganda and the Misty Copeland documentary

I finished Chewing Gum last night. I liked it a lot.

[andwhat]

Watching Luke Cage right now.

Do you like stuff about royalty?

The Crown was good

I'm terrible with shows that require me to listen to British accents. I just can't keep up/ keep my interest.

I'm going to give Luke Cage a shot. My husband thanks you all in advance.

Chewing Gum was pretty funny. If you like scarish things Stranger Things (+ 80s omages) or Cleverman.

Are you serious with this shit? A whole nation of people bore you with their accent

Yeah I was kind of confused with the comment as well...at first I thought she was saying it was hard to understand, which I guess I can kind of understand if you're not used to, but then the "keep up my interest" part. Huh?
My british boyfriend's accent always keeps my interest!

Slow your roll socratic. If I can't understand what an actor is saying then I can't follow along. If you sound like the movie Snatch, I'm sure half the convo is me asking "what?". I can handle the more Mary Poppins and less Eliza Dolittle end of the spectrum.

I also can't follow along with Star Wars and refuse to watch Harry Potter and Tyler Perry movies. Don't hate me.

Just FYI you can put on closed captions/subtitles on Netflix. So if there is an accent you can't understand you can put them on. Not understanding a n accent shouldn't be a barrier to watching good stuff! I like watching foreign films as well.

Another documentary rec is What happened Miss Simone. Very good.

The accent will annoy her. British accents don't keep her interest.
I, however, loved Chewing Gum.

Thanks for speaking on my behalf stranger on the internet. Maybe you can sign my holiday cards for me as well.

The Get Down!

DD is is having an 80s themed roller skating party. I have a pair of red Pumas in my Amazon cart for DS, I can't decide if it's too 70s.
