Correct me if I'm wrong here.... I used to be able to use Netflix and do crazy searches and get unheard of movies from Denmark, Czech Repubilc... a lot of movies you've never heard of that turned out to be incredible....

... but then they regulated the search feature and you can't find those such movies anymore. The search feature was regulated so that you would always have to go through the high-ticket items/productions first.

That was before I stopped Netflix.... maybe a year or two ago. But it made me not want to look for movies anymore b/c I was only getting mainstream shit and couldn't find gems easily anymore.... if at all.

Not sure if still true.

Speaking of Asian movies. Hache, there is a movie where a young sexy Korean woman and her young boyfriend drive out to the country.... they stop at some old guy's place on a farm to buy something. The old guy kills the boyfriend and kidnaps the woman. Really good movie. And it involves a woodchipper.

Don't want to give too much away.

Good luck finding it.

Netflix uses your IP address to determine what country you are in. Then they block the majority of other countries content from reaching where you are located. People get around this “region blocking” by using VPN’s. A good VPN will mask your IP address and you can usually choose what country you want your IP to show up as being from. But a good VPN usually runs $10-15 a month.

Netflix and Hulu serve different purposes for me. Hulu is basically good for watching syndicated TV series without having to skip over commercials, across multiple devices. It's perfect for what I use it for. I put it on at night while I'm going to bed and also I have a TV in the workout room with no cable, just smarttv , and I watch shows while I do cardio.

Never tried their original programming though.

I have Netflix and Amazon Prime which is all I really need. If I want to watch anything that Hulu , I get it on my Firestick with Kodi
Like the Handmaid Tale, the wife and I watched it on Kodi

I have an android TV.

Seems like every time i get on Kodi lately, i get crazy buffering and cant find any live streams for sports and if i can get a stream, it buffers like crazy.

Used to work like a gem for me

I haven't found any Live Sports streams on Kodi in a while. I just use it for Movies and any series that I have interest in that's not on Netflix or Amazon
