Yep, I do. The creator of the show has said the show is basically:

Fantastic Portlandia episode themed around this. Very very funny.

When I think about it logically it makes sense but still distrubing to watch. There was also a couple of other incidents, when he yells at the guys in the hardware store, when you see him changing. Walt has gone from a stumbling bumbling "I want to make just enough" meth cooker to a drug kingpin. The storylines need to keep changing and adapting in order to keep the show running.

Re: Netflix Instant Streaming Recommendations Thread

Yes there are plenty of TV shows on Netflix, good ones at that.

But am I the only one who struggles to find a decent movie to watch when you just want to catch a single flick? (streaming only)

Might have to add the mail version back on later this year if the cashflow permits.

It kinda ebbs and flows for me, but I don't watch as many movies and I have a pretty wide base of movies I'll try from B-movies, kids, foreign, documentary, teeny bop, etc.

Just noticed that Drive showed up on IS. If you haven't had the pleasure do yourself a favor and check it out. One of my favorite all time movies, yes all time.

I was excited about Drive when I saw the previews. I thought the movie was just "OK" though. I actually thought the first Transporter was better.

Well at least now we've met. I knew I had a nemesis somewhere in this world.

You should see all the shirtless Ryan Gosling posters Razor has in his room... not that there's anything wrong with that.

At least shirtless Ryan Gosling photos are easily attainable online, what I find disturbing is thinking about how you obtained all the shirtless John Calipari posters you have all around your room.

My favorite is the one of him buck naked with only the 2012 National Championship Trophy covering his junk.

I think this is a really funny joke?

I'd recommend Red State. Loosely based on the Westboro Baptist Church and it's actually really creepy.

I am going to have to add it. I have seen it a bunch of times while browsing for things to watch and it never really jumped out as something I even felt like checking out, but I am all for watching something based on crazy people.
