We’re currently sticking to our plan of one Netflix and one Amazon Prime watch party per month. It’s Netflix’s turn.
We’re open to suggestions for different starting times, dates, or methods of propagating the watch link.
Our next Netflix Party will be scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 9 at 10:15 PM. We’ll take nominations for movies to screen in the comments on this post up until next Sunday (Jan. 3), then put up a voting poll.
The Canonically Weird movies on Netflix that we haven’t yet screened yet are A Clockwork Orange (1971),Kung Fu Hustle (2004), Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion (1997), Pan’s Labyrinth (2006), Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010), A Serious Man (2009), and Swiss Army Man (2016). Feel free to nominate any of these, or ignore them in favor of other selections. Since we’ve rolled over into a new year, we could technically decide to watch something we’ve seen before (if it’s still on the platform). For reference, the movies we’ve already screened are The Platform, April and the Extraordinary World, The Bad Batch, Skins [Pieles], Under the Skin, The Killing of a Sacred Deer, Enemy, A Ghost Story, Escape from the ‘Liberty’ Cinema, Between Worlds, Buster’s Mal Heart, The Aerial [La Antena], The Endless, The Wicker Man (1973), Murder Party (2007), I Lost My Body (2019), I’m Thinking of Ending Things (2020), We Have Always Lived in the Castle (2018), Cadaver (2020), and Being John Malkovich (1999).
Here’s a list of stuff arriving and leaving Netflix in January.
To participate, you’ll need a U.S. Netflix account, a Chrome-based browser, and the Netflix Party (now TeleParty) extension.
Make your nominations in the comments below.
I think we should automatically include Certified Weird movies that will soon be leaving the service, so I’ll start with A Serious Man and Swiss Army Man.
Swiss army man is my recommend
I nominate A Clockwork Orange
My Entire High School Sinking into the Sea
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: THE FOREST OF LOVE.
“Errementari” looks neat enough to consider. I’mma nominating it.
I’m going to throw The Other Side of the Wind into the mix.
We actually have more than enough nominees already, so I’m going to go ahead and put up the poll momentarily.
