Yeah, last time I tried them out for a month it was pretty sad. Give Tubi or Pluto a shot. They've got good stuff. And since there are now ads on more or less everything, why pay?

The Waterboy was offensive on many levels. Henry Winkler is amazing in everything he's in though. But that's all I remember liking.


Happy Gilmore was absurd insanity. No depth, but it was fun....

58% seen. Not a lot of the more recent live action ones, and virtually none of the French films. Also far more of the color 40's, 50's, and 60's films than the early black and white entries.
