i’ve been extremely slack in watching netflix movies lately, basically since i moved downtown (and got directv). i finally watched a better tomorrow ii. i don’t think the film has aged particularly well (since it was released, not since netflix shipped it to me), but the bodycount in the final portion of the movie is impressive.
i will cancel my netflix membership soon. i just haven’t been watching the movies. i would be quicker to cancel it if there were a video store nearby. (actually, there appear to be a couple in little tokyo, which is not terribly far away. i should probably check those out.)
