Good movies,,, well there are a few.......

Many streaming services are so deep one must dig for the good stuff.

“Outlander” originates on Starz but first 7 seasons is on Netflix. Very good but often too intense. Too much *** and violence.

“Foundation” is on Apple, based on Isaac Asimov’s works. Not perfect adaption but excellent.

“The Wheel of Time” on Amazon based on Robert Jordan’s books is also excellent.

We just saw the new John Candy Doc. If you are a JC fan it’s a must watch! It’s on Amazon prime, we signed up for the prime 30 day freebie!!!

I've been a Prime member since the service first started about 20 years ago, before they had streaming. Their streaming service got pretty good for awhile, but anymore it just seems to be a paid service that allows you to see previews of other paid services. Damn near every show or movie I want to watch on Prime anymore requires me to sign up for Paramount, Peacock, or one of a dozen other services. Useless.

I just canceled my free trial of Prime. (Again)
Aside from the free shipping- which I can generally get anyways- it seems like any advantage has gone away. The order I placed last Monday is estimated to get here next week; 14 days minimum.

I keep it for the shipping, but we use it a LOT, and I often want my items same-day or next-day. But I consider the video service to be a throw-away, at this point. It's really terrible, I wouldn't recommend anyone get Prime if their goal is streaming video.

Same here. Rarely is a full movie I want to watch included free. I'll sign up for Prime, if it's free or saves me $ on shipping, then cancel before renewal hits. I almost always remember, but it really annoys me that we have to dig down deep in their site, find and click a little box to have them send an email reminder before the renewal $...
