Cutting through the crud to the fun. The best of Netflix streaming for this week:

Black Dynamite – A PopBunker favorite is now available to stream right now and how; believe me that to ride this jive can only feel so fine.

Phantasm – This week Phantasm III and IV were added to watch. The entire multi-dimensional mind-fuck is available on WI. We popped this franchise in a Retro Crush.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles – The entire series has been added.

Zombieland – The much enjoyed and quickly forgotten RomZomCom from 2009.

The V Trifecta:

V: The Original Miniseries

V: The Final Battle

V: The Complete TV Series

This is, obviously, in reference to the 80s series and not the new one.

Babylon 5: Season 1 – Some more sci-fi and tv love from the flixers this week. A growing and well stocked genre for the service.

Kagemusha – An often overlooked Kurosawa samurai masterpiece.

   There is some seriously great stuff on there. I’ve been watching tons of Doctor Who, plus there’s Firefly, Farscape, and okay, Quantum Leap.

     Recently I’ve been revisting the BBC show Jekyll which is awesome. Also the A-Team, Knight Rider, and MacGuyver are all loaded up on NF.

   Kagemusha is seriously worth a watch — but worth noting that a lot of other Kurasawa films are there, too, like Yojimbo, Seven Samurai, and Roshomon (my personal favorite).

   I don’t think that guy ever made a bad movie.

   Great picks, by the way — even if I did attribute them mistakenly to Elwood on twitter.

     It’s okay. You’re forgiven.

     I would probably watch a lot more instant streaming fi I wasn’t such a quality snob, or own most anything I care to watch (or re-watch) on DVD already. Still, it’s a cool feature and I’m glad that NetFlix provides such variety.

       I’m only a quality snob on movies that are in my top tier of wanting to see or see again. Plus my internet speed gives me their best quality which is near DVD quality inc. 5.1 I always lose a little quality anyway because my only “tv” apparatus besides the computer is an analog projector that upscales to about a 7′ x 4.5′ picture.
