I just signed up for netflix and want to add a few to my queue.
I added Equilibrium since everyone says it is really good. I am usually pretty up to date on movies but movies like that slip through. Can anyone suggest some newer movies that might have been skipped but are pretty good? Anything from 1990 and up would be good.
Thanks!

Thats awesome, I just signed up for Netflix as well, I have 150 in my que list and looking for more. Alot of them is TV series, but I'm keeping a variety so I can switch them around as I go. But yeah some suggestions would be great for me as well.

Netflix is where you rent movies online for $20 a month, you get 3 at a time or you can upgrade to 5 if you life it would cost more though. You can make a long que list of movies so that when you return them you get another one sent right away. There is no due date. It takes 1-3 days to get DVDs. So far I've gotten mine always on the 2nd day. The only disadvantage I've found is that if its a 2-disc film each disc couts as 1 movie. But, still its a pretty good damn deal.

Is Netflix for US residents only? does anyone live outside the US and still get movies?

Well I think you can get it outside the US you just have to pay for postage and junk like that. But, here they pay for the postage and everything.

Spun is awesome, never seen Requiem though. Be sure to get the unrated versions.

Requiem is great -- also Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas & 2 days in the valley if you have never seen either of them
PS You can upgrade to 8 movies at a time for 39.95 -- that is what i got into & I never run out of flicks-- it is great!!!

Good suggestions, already added a few to the queue.
Just noticed this is in the wrong forum, must have posted it in too much of a hurry. If a mod happens to notice please move to the general forum. Thanks!

HEAT, awesome movie, you have most likely already seen it....
oh and i would definitely suggest seeing THE STING (1973?) even though it is an older movie.

Your right, Heat is awesome.
Never saw The Sting. I will add that to the queue. I dont mind older movies.
In fact just the other day I watched The Dirty Dozen for the first time. A great movie if you like war flicks.
Keep the suggestions coming! I am only at like 60 in my queue!!

The Perfect Storm is excellent. I haven't seen it in a while but it got me every time in the past *tear*. Life As A House is superb as well... American History X... Benny and Joon... And anything Monty Python. Especially Life of Brian, which is supremely underrated. Can't forget about those darn Brits!

Any genre is fine with me. I am always open to new movies. Not a big fan of westerns though.
Thanks for the suggestions. Keep them coming!

THE HUSTLER is a very old movie, but i though it was very very good. You might try that.
