Kung Fury
The Master
Upstream Color
American Beauty
Mortified Nation
Trainspotting
Frank
Nightcrawler
Django Unchained
Inglorious Basterds

Plus a bunch of the obvious classics

edit: looking back on this list I like a bunch of dark [expletive] apparently

[go birds]

i'd watch Compliance before they remove it

[Jocephus]

anyone see this?

[MrSaigon]

True Story is a swing and a miss at a meatball.

If you have any interest, I'd suggest just reading about the (disgusting, heartbreaking) case, and then watching the last 15 minutes of the movie.

Stand Up

Bill Burr: I'm Sorry You Feel That Way
John Mulaney: The Comeback Kid - the closing story about Bill Clinton is my new favorite thing ever
Jeselnik's new special (Thoughts and Prayers I think is the name) is pretty good too

TV

Mind of a Chef - especially the first 16 eps with David Chang
The West Wing - you should watch it again
Freaks and Geeks
House - I'm enjoying another run through this
New Girl - funnier than you realize
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

Movies/Docs

All of the 30 for 30s, especially I hate Christian Laetner, The U and Pony Excess off the top of my head
The Trip - not The Trip to Italy
Swingers
Exit Through the Gift Shop
Jiro Dreams of Sushi

[The Third Man]

[thrill]

When I get drunk and come home alone with nothing to do, I end up watching either Killing Them Softly, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy or if I'm in a really dark mood, Valhalla Rising.

I've seen the first two probably more than ten times each on Netflix.

This is me with Training Day and Blade.
