Where's Instant Queue on PS3? I can't find it for the life of me. I can queue stuff with Instant Watcher, but it doesn't show up anywhere? I'm using the US store on PS3.

Watched Flesh + Blood on US Netflix last night. Despite being 4:3 and SD, thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for the tips guys.

I spotted Nude Nuns with Big Guns on the UK one last night

I watched that Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Prices documentary last night. It didn't seem to go anywhere just "Wal-Mart bad" over and over again.

I don't know what it's like on Netflix but if you have a look at the most watched charts on Lovefilm most of the films are soft porn rubbish and various Lovers guides titles.

Yeah, that Lovers Guide 3D thing

I hate the Netflix layout. The LoveFilm one is much more intuitive IMO.

Someone here did a "study" to find films with strong sexual content that would not normally be shown on Netflix. Might save some of you a few hours of frustrating browsing

For anyone interested, I ended up just buying the player - it does indeed have netflix on it out of the box. Its not without its problems though (see thread in quote)

Not to repeat myself but Atrocious is a pretty decent Spanish 'found footage' horror on US Netflix (might be on UK too). I think it's on Lovefilm too. I commented in the horror thread.

And they've just added the original Ghoulies to US Netflix!

Also noticed the well received Philip Seymour Hoffman indie, Jack Goes Boating is on there as well. It wasn't on cinema over here long ago, and hits DVD on Monday.

One recommendation for British Netflix is Sex and Lucia. Yes it's a bit but it's also a beautiful film that just happens to have bits. You can't get it on the US site, nor can you get the excellent Battle Royale

Finally got around to watching a whole film and it was Forks over knives, I was quiet willing to accept their case but it was a badly made documentary that feels like thinly veiled vegan propaganda. Which is a shame because it detracts from the credible parts

Spent a lot of time searching via the horrible PS3 interface, when I probably should have just used instantwatcher.com I couldn't believe they had Spiderman and his Amazing friends, loved that when I was a kid. They also have most of Quantum leap

Tonight I'm going to have to chose between These Amazing Shadows and Mystery Team or Being Elmo. Wish there was some way to queue though, they don't even have it on the British Netflix site

Just noticed 'Lake Mungo' expires in 6 days. It's an excellent, slow burning docu-style horror and well worth checking out for fans of the genre. I highly recommend it, horror fans!

It's on US Netflix and HD.

(It's also best approached as cold as possible, I'd say)

It is a good film... as for Paz Vega... be still my beating heart

Definitely need some sort of queuing system and a more flexible search function.

Atrocious was pretty good. The whole film kicks off about half hour in and is then relentless! Does fall into the 'put the camera down you fool!' a lot less than similar flicks too.

Sleeping Beauty's been on there a little while. I keep meaning to watch it.

I wish they'd up their game already and introduce HD.
