Boo Netflix!

Postby Hermes3G » Mon Oct 15, 2012 4:43 am

It's gone! They pulled FÅ from the streaming content! I'm not sure who's choice it was, Netflix or the distributor, but either way...Boo! From what I've seen in these forums, many people discovered it on Netflix. Me for one. LTROI is gone too. NdP is still there.

Guess it's time to bite the bullet and buy a DVD. I know there are serveral versions. Any recommendations?

You poor thing. :( :P :lol:

I have four copies of FÅ, trying to find the best subtitles.
None are perfect but probably the best are on a TV recording from SBS TV Australia who do their own subs.
These are meant for an Aussie audience as they use the local idiom as much as possible so they suit my taste.
I guess the best thing would be to try to find subtitles made in your own country as they'll most likely suit you the best.

Boo indeed.

This is why I don't trust the internet. Too easy to be here today, gone tomorrow. I like to make sure I have my own physical copies of everything that really matters.

Yeah, there's plenty of different versions to choose from on dvd, though. :D

Be careful if buying LTROI - make sure it's not an overdub [they are really atrociously bad].

The phrase 'UK theatrical subtitles' comes to mind, as a plus point.

And yes, we may be old-fashioned [just possibly] but hard copies are indeed the way to go.

We are happy to note that the lady Snappia, though sadly not quite as visible here lately as of yore, has not lost her comic touch! :lol:

I'm curious. Is that genuinely how snaps thinks australians talk? :?:















She's right, of course. :P

Spot on, I suspect :lol:




Typical rotten luck, Netflix was just launched in Norway this monday, got the 30 days free trial yesterday.
And this is the time they decide to pull it, boo indeed! *:|*

hmmm so I tried ''your'' Netflix and writes that it is not allowed for our country yet :lol: :roll:
Well, we have something similar, it's called VOYO (voyo.cz) also for money, monthly fee. 7 days are free but then it is charged, fuck it... :W

Zoinks, I just found this out. I was on Netflix and noticed FÅ had been removed from their streaming service. What did they pull it for? Contract thing, I'm sure.

Anyway I did find I could watch FÅ for free on Amazon's streaming service. So I did!! :D (I just ended, so yes, I've just spent the last 1.5 hrs watching Elin and Agnes (yet again). Yay me.)
