| Why are so many of the videos on Netflix On-Demand such crap? |
|
My wife and I love streaming movies and tv shows through our Wii to the TV on Netflix, but why do they keep putting such a disproportionate amount of Z-movie CRAP on Instant Watch? For every good movie or TV show, it seems like there are at least 3 bad ones. And I'm not talking about old movies; I like a lot of the older stuff. No, I mean bad FX, bad plot, HORRIBLE acting.
Prime example: Mega Piranha!
And don't get me started on Mallcops: Mall of America.

Over this weekend I saw four absolutely great flicks "on demand" - Donny Darko, Let the Right One In, The Devil's Backbone and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (the original Swedish version). Well it was Halloween. There's some good stuff mixed in with the crap. You just have to be selective.

The crap that's playing in your local theaters winds up on Netflix.
