I still don't have a problem waiting. They come when they come and it beats driving to Blockbuster or getting regular DVD's from Redbox. |

That's one of the things that I love about this place. I've added a bunch of movies to my que that I never would have heard of. Moon is a good example of this.
My wife often asks how I find a lot of the movies that we watch. |

You'd think that that would increase your chances, but I've sent movies back on every day of the week (not every day of every week of course), and I can't remember ever getting a hot new release without waiting first.

dunno what you do wrong. I could get a new release every week I bet if I wanted one. I try to get one about 3 times a month and have success probably 80-85% of the time.

It doesn't usually bother me to have to wait. The only thing it affects is that I generally can't join in any of the ChiefsPlanet discussions about these movies because by the time I've seen them, they're old news. I also have to avoid spoilers longer than some people do.

If you liked Manhattan [probably his best, at least most widely accoladed], at least give Annie Hall and Hannah and Her Sisters a try.

I think with older, more obscure, movies like that, they literally have one or two copies total. I know I had Salo in my queue for years on 'very long wait' and one day it was just gone. The one guy who had it must've kept it, or broken it.

The part about having Manhattan in my queue was a joke (perhaps one that was more bizarre than funny ). Everything else I said about my netflix queue was the truth though.
