What We Really Hate About Netflix

It’s nothing like sitting back and enjoying a good movie on the weekends. Some of us like to sit with our family, while others grab their favorite comfort food. Nine out of ten of us fire up the magic wand and the familiar red and black Netflix logo lights up our screens. A warm fuzzy feeling comes over us like a child in a toy store as our imaginations take over. For me, the smell of fried chicken, mash potatoes and greens fills the air and I pour my favorite beverage over a tall glass of ice, in a few minutes, I will join millions of other Netheads and we will go where no one has gone before.

WTF!!! Are they talking German!!! – In the good old days when you fired up a Netflix movie, ninety nine percent of the time it was in a language you could understand. I know Netflix has grown since the days when it started and is now a global power reaching just about every country in the world, well maybe not North Korea. They only have one channel and it shows the great leader shooting some poor bean farmer with an anti aircraft gun because he stole a peanut butter sandwich and washed it down with pond scum. Anyway (cuss word,) I don’t live in North Korea. I wish you indicate which films are foreign language films.

Naw, Naw, Naw… – They never finished the show, but thought it would be a good idea to throw it out there anyway because they are making a fortune on that Prozac stock. (Cuss Word,) please!!! There is nothing more evil than having the bad guy hiding in the closet with a machete, the good guy is sitting in a chair with his back to him, the credits come on and the episode ends. You stare at the TV, in 15 seconds the next episode starts, will the good guy turn around before the bad guy chops off his head? Wait.. whats that down in the corner of the TV… What do they mean the New Adventures of Rocket Dog will start in 10 sec!!

Y’all gonna make me lose my mind, up in here, up in here. – I like historical war movies. I’ve watch “World War II in 3D,” Ken Burns, “The Civil War,” and “Pearl Harbor,” just to name a few. I think I would like to watch a good old war movie tonight. Hmm.. let me see. Ah ha, here are some movies under “Because you watched World War II in 3D.” What is this!!! Why do they have “The Secret Life Of Pets,”among other titles that have nothing to do with war in this category? Makes you want to get on the first flight to Los Gatos Ca., take an Uber to 121 Albright Way, go up to the 4th floor, ask the receptionist is this the presidents office? When they say yes, pull it out and pee on the carpet. “Do you mind giving me a Prozac before I leave?”

This is a cartoon!! – You (cuss words.) “Teams of recently deceased people who have been revived and given high tech weapons must cooperate to defeat the an army of mutants!” That’s five minutes of my life I will never get back. What really adds misery to insult is the cartoon characters speak Japanese. Oh well, like they say, it ain’t no fun when the rabbit got the gun, or something like that. :>) At least I didn’t get the dreaded “We are sorry, but we are unable to retrieve the content you requested. The title is likely unavailable for playback in your region.” Wait… what’s this?
