10 reasons why you should get Netflix, and 2 reasons why you shouldn't.

Ok, I'm sure everyone knows about Netflix now, but I learnt about it from my cool old friends on BlogTV about a year or two ago I think, but I didn't ever try it out. I saw an advert for it on an app that I had, and decided that I would finally try it, and I did. It's pretty cool and like any other thing in this world, has its pros and cons...

Here is a list of the 10 reasons you should get Netflix, and 2 reasons why you shouldn't.

10. The first month is free! Use this month to watch the fuck out of all of the movies on the site! I don't have a life, so I spend my time watching some douche-baggy hipster movies that Netflix have to offer.

9. As well as watching movies, seasons of TV shows are available on demand; even though sometimes they is a whole season missing *cough* Breaking Bad *cough*.

8. There's stuff for liddle kiddies too! Kids shows like Dora the explorer and old school Rugrats can entertain kids and shut them up for hours. Also, you don't want your kids watching the shitty cartoons that are on TV nowadays, so give them some of your childhood, right?

7. The documentary genre is legit awesome, and what's better is that Netflix has categorised them into sub genres and stuff.

6. The Netflix rating of the movie or TV show is bang on point. If Netflix says the movie is a 2 star movie, it is a 2 star movie, no disagreeing.

5. Signing up isn't complicated. It takes like 5 minutes! Any longer than that, and you're probably a retard.

4. It's pretty easy to navigate yourself around the site.

3. It's compatible with a lot of the technology we use today such as the iPad, Xbox, PS3 and such. I could even watch a movie direct from my iPhone.

2. It's only £6 a month! That's like 1 cinema ticket to see 744 movies!

And 1. If you're poor, you could always use alternative email accounts to continue your free viewing of movies and Netflix wouldn't know the difference. (Note: I pay for my Netflix, I'm no criminal)

And the 2 reasons why you shouldn't get it:

2: Calculate £6 a month for a year and cry for a bit.

1. All, well most, of the movies are old hipster movies. They have a good selection, but you've got to look very hard to watch something you actually want to watch, because despite what you may have thought about Netflix, it doesn't have every single movie ever made on there.

So that is my list. If you agree with me, then yippee! If not, fuck off. (And write a lovely comment)

It's 8.21am...

And I'm still awake. I had 3 teeth pulled out from the right side of my mouth today and was put under local anaesthetic. They took out my upper 5, upper 7 and lower 8, so in all, you could say I have pretty bad teeth. Anyway, I haven't blogged in a while, I feel like I've missed out on loads of topics I could talk about and now I've forgotten them, but like a good journalist/blogger/gossip, I'll find something to talk about.
So, The Avengers is coming out in the cinemas on the 27th, and me and Arran are going to watch it together because I've been looking forward to it ever since I heard it was in production. Although I hate Scarlett Johansen with a raging passion, I will still go and see it, not for her, but for the fact that I like who she is playing.

Here's the review for the movie me and Arran went to watch the other day:

I fell asleep.
