Steve9347 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) s*** myself: engaged. Seriously, I've never been more excited for and had more fun at a movie than "The Dark Knight". Well, I'm even more amped for this one. Edited July 13, 2011 by Steve9347 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenksismyhero Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 12, 2011 -> 09:54 PM) coming to the same conclusions, where else are you looking? hulu is good for a few shows but not much else. I also subscribe to Hulu Plus and the movie selection isn't that good, but the TV selection is better, especially for current stuff. I'd still like it if Hulu allowed me to stream more content to my phone or through my TV, but apparently their contracts only allow them to stream some of their content over the web. Makes no difference to me since I have a computer hooked up to my TV, but it's an extra step to deal with. Hulu also is starting to suck because they're adding more and more commercials. It used to be that at most you'd have to watch a 8-10 second commercial at the beginning of the show. Then the moved to being able to watch a minute of commercials before the show, and now they have just straight up commercial breaks. 7.99/month is better than 50 or more for cable, but it still kinda sucks to have to sit through those. Honestly Netflix for us is only good anymore for the few shows that we can't get through Hulu and don't care to buy. Mainly that would be Showtime/HBO shows like True Blood, Californication, Dexter, etc. 95% of movies that we rent anymore come from the RedBox. Our TV shows come from Hulu. I basically watch random documentaries and old TV shows (Futurama, South Park) and now that it's 16 bucks a month I could probably do without that.

StrangeSox Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Netflix just sent me an email saying you've got to choose either a streaming plan or a DVD-only plan for $7.99 a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hulu + Red Box is better than paying such an increased rate. I might keep the streaming on Netflix for a couple months to catch up on a couple shows but we'll see.

Jenksismyhero Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 the price change doesn't start until 9/1 right? so get your shows in while you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Or option D for people like me, cancel getting movies in the mail only get streaming save $2. I really think they should have had an option for $9.99 where its streaming and like 3-4 movies per month in the mail. I just think if they raised prices $2 this year and continually raised them gradually theyd have had a lot less people angry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I hate myself for saying this, but I want to see the Smurfs movie just for Neal Patrick Harris. It won't be a trip to the theater, but it will be a redbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
