Kind of excited about being able to watch ‘X-men Evo’ straight through. I loved that show. That and I’ve always been mildly curious about ‘Spider-man Unlimited’ haha.
I never really watched Evolution when it was on, so I’m definitely psyched for that one. Spider-Man Unlimited though?
Haha, with ‘Spiderman Unlimited’ it’s more of a curiosity factor. I’ve never actually watched that one when it was on but I remember tha tit looked interesting. X-Men Evo was pretty solid though. I love that show. I wish the seasons were released as sets instead of as a bunch of 4 episode DVD’s.
They did the same thing with Spectacular Spider-Man a couple years ago. I swear, the minute that get’s a proper box set…
I am so stoked. I love Netflix! And awesome article by the way
Thanks man! And yeah, Netflix is pretty much the best thing to happen to my free time in quite a while.
Silver Surfer? How does Netflix rate that? That needs to be put out on DVD so it can be in MY DVD collection.
Never been big on Netflix, but not because I work at a movie rental store (they aren’t a threat to us at all since my store actually gets all the major new releases the day they are released and not 28-30 days after), I just prefer to not wait until a movie arrives in the mail.
But the bigger question, to me anyway, is what does this mean for FINALLY getting the Silver Surfer series put out on DVD so the masses (most importantly me) can finally own it! I have a copy of it but I want a full on official release!
(bad picture of Ghost Rider in this one, lol)
Skott, most people use Netflix for the instant streaming of movies/shows. The Dvd by mail is just a bonus. I have used it for over 3 years now and I love it!
Holy hell this is great news!!!! I just got Netflix, so this was added just in time! Thanks for the post Jordamus!
Hahaha don’t thank me, thank Nick C. who actually wrote this post haha. I just posted it on FB because I thought it was great news!
I’m ALL about this!!! This is an amazing thing for me and my kids!
