Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

Apparently there might be a second season of Abducted In Plain Sight???

Starting The Order

Me too, I'm hoping this is finally the show for those of us still missing Hemlock Grove

xp to yerac: yeah, don't spoil anything. i guarantee the show goes in directions you can't dream of.

Only one character has any kind of charisma through two episodes of The Order.

omg yerac you're gonna have the best time

i should rewatch it this year

I watched Mads Mikkelsen videos of him dancing (the can can!) yesterday because I was banned from starting season two until this weekend.

The knowledge that you're watching Hannibal for the first time is really cheering up my morning!

god i loved hannibal, even season 3, but yeah season 2 is really the sweet spot

maybe we should all watch season 2 this weekend.

don't guzzle that fine wine! savor it!

a friend who was traveling from one of the "every product, but with w33d in it" states gifted me a ginger ale

perhaps it's ginger ale and Hannibal time tomorrow afternoon

Apparently there might be a second season of Abducted In Plain Sight???

I am so late to this, but I am really enjoying Hannibal.

was there some other version of Abducted in Plain Sight?

cos the thing I watched was a film

season 3 is the best season of hamibal imo but i like the dreamy irresolution of the first half gradually drifting into the red dragon plot

season 1's brief cycle of "outrageous serial killers of the week" is prob the weakest part of the show

i hope it's not spoiling anything to mention the red dragon plot happening but i feel like the show telegraphs that it's gonna get there

i truly love Silence of the Lambs but i think Mikkelsen is the best Lector. The right balance of charisma and likability and humor and absolute horror.

he has plenty of outstanding jokes throughout the show that are also referencing his own proclivities, just made to impress himself. love it.

I don't know anything about the Red Dragon plot. And yeah I didn't really care about any of the motw serial killers.

Mikkelsen is really good in this, but I don't know if it's because he is insanely hot and I keep waiting for him and Will to make out. And Lector has really nice stemware.

i think Hopkins was excellent in SOTL but he was not at all charming, simply fearsome and charismatic. Mikkelsen really accentuates the charming aspect, which is key to the character and how he fooled people.

xp i have written and erased three or four notes that could qualify as spoilers in response to that post but suffice it to say you should keep watching

fuck, i'm gonna have to rewatch Hannibal sometime this year aren't i

yes

yerac when you finish season 3 you should watch my friend greg's puppet recaps of each episode. here's one that has nothing to do with the plot of the show

the final season in Venice (?) confused the hell out of me, i didnt finish it because everything felt like a hallucination even moreso than prev seasons

It's so weird, I just found out Hannibal was on NBC. It seems more of a cable show.

I pretend Hannibal ends at the midpoint of s3. I got basically nothing out of them remaking Red Dragon.

Hot dog. Yeah, I think I can get through the whole thing soon. It's only 26 more episodes.

hamibal is one of my favorite things the internet has ever produced, and i wish he did more shows

it’s so beautiful - costumes, set design, cinematography, even the practical & digital effects are 😱

hamibal was incredible

Oh, I love Hannibal.

I didn't mind the Red Dragon subplot, which was a lesser addition to the series, because it's mostly used as a vehicle to keep the interactions rolling. A little too much screentime overall but it's there to subvert the idea that there's a new status quo

hopefully these cats can get together at some point for their take on silence of the lambs (at least some of Hannibal found its way into the series, iirc)

I got basically nothing out of them remaking Red Dragon.

ugh simon i know we disagree often on matters of television and film but... NOT EVEN THE FINALE????

lol at Hamibal

I forget who posted this on the Hannibal thread but it is so so so great: http://lecterings.tumblr.com/tagged/jokeseries

the finale was a miss for me tbh

god I love that tumblr so much

xpost I got to the joke with Abigail in the frame before I realized that these jokes didn't occur in the show.

Haha, yeah you can absolutely hear the actors delivering them, it's uncanny

There is a Hannibal thread for talking about Hannibal.

it's fun to do this though

hmm last time I checked hannibal was the only tv series on netflix

It's on Bezos-Prime

we should talk about hannibal in every thread.

petition to change the domain to ilhannibal.com

hhh.ilhannibal.hom

TURN BACK YOU MADS FULES

If we include Amazon prime, I just discovered they have all of Dark Shadows. I was put off by trailers for the Johnny Depp film, but I've started watching it and it's great. And there's like 1200 episodes!
