    Anyone who thinks Netflix is expensive is from a generation that never bought a newspaper, a magazine, or paid £5 (plus inevitable £3 late fee) to rent a movie from Xtravision.

    I took my family to the cinema today to see The Secret Life of Pets 2. The tickets alone cost €36.

    The Netflix monthly is peanuts for the variety of stuff they offer a household.

    Not true, I still rent movies from xtra vision.

    Interesting to contrast this with Amazon Prime. I pay that monthly just for the shopping benefits. I've never watched a single thing on their channel.

    You've never watched Orgazmo??

    Watched this last night and thought it was excellent too

    Was this on Netflix Ireland? My search only returns 'titles related to The Guilty'. How'd you get it?

    It's there alright, if you look under the search it's the one with the guy in police uniform with a headset. Don't know why it doesn't come up properly.

    Yeah, had Prime too (free trial :o) but after the third thing I wanted to watch wasn't available in Ireland, I gave it up as a bad job.

    Halfway through Blue Ruin at the moment, enjoying it rightly, really well paced and original so far

    Ah, you're right. Its there in the image grid. Thanks for that. I started watching Killer Ratings instead and I'm hooked. Looking forward to The Guilty after that.

    Good news for fans of "Dark" like myself, that watching this new trailer for the 2nd season, its basically confirming that a third & final season is in the works.



    Waiting patiently for the new season to arrive now. My favourite show on Netflix.

    I'd concur with this. Started it this week and am 5 episodes in. It's very good.

    Just watched "the perfection" I thought it was great but definitely disturbing and gory. It won't be everyones cup of tea.

    The office, Jack Ryan and Preacher are only things I've watched on it tbh. Film selection is linked.

    He said during his campaign that he still thinks they did it..

    They did make some strange statements and could have still been involved. During the same night they were part of a group of 30 or so kids who beat and robbed basically everyone they could catch in Central Park, beat multiple people into unconsciousness with pipes, bricks and sticks, left them covered head to toe in blood. All in the space of an hour or so.

    They were absolute scumbags even if they didn't rape the jogger.

    Those 5 guys did all of that? Not from anything I've seen or read. Lived there at the time so was very interested. People were assaulted no doubt. Woman was raped. But were these boys guilty?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,546 ✭✭✭✭km79


    I've only seen 2 episodes..........


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,162 ✭✭✭✭Mam of 4


    When they see us

    True Story about 5 teenagers wrongly convicted of raping a jogger in central park in the 80's
    Watched all 4 episodes today - fabulous and heartbreaking

    Watching this at the moment , watched the documentary a while ago .
    They're tough watching imo , time and again people , youngsters , getting locked up for years on end for crimes they didn't commit .

    Heartbreaking .

    The documentary is so much better than the Netflix movie. Gives a better perspective to how New York was at the time.

    The last episode was a really hard watch, The eldest (fifteen years old) of the 5 went through absolute torture but thankfully he had the prison guard looking out for him or it could've been even worse for him.

    Did anyone watch the Khalief Browder documentary ?
    That was such a sad doc tbh

    Very similar in how young boys were imprisoned , just so cases could be signed off as solved , the hero police .

    Did you watch the documentary? They were kids that found themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time and were treated appallingly by the very people that should have protected them. Would you have survived that type of interrogation when you were 14 without making some strange statements?

    Anyway, don't want to drag the thread of topic. Finished the mini series last night and thought it was excellent.

    Not long now (well,tomorrow) before Black Mirror is back.Looking forward to seeing Andrew Scott's episode.

    I’m one episode in and in tears at this. One of the hardest things I’ve watched in awhile.

    Regardless of whether they were guilty or not, they were just children and entitled to have their parents present and entitled to due process.

    The fact that other adults exploited that vulnerability by questioning them alone totally sickens me.
