I really should take some time and beef up my Netflix queue--it's down to 8 items total (the last four discs of Doctor Who, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Syriana, and two other movies I can't recall offhand).

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
And how do you say "have adjectivally-florid, romance-novel-style sex"?
Seriously?
No, I am kidding. Although, if you know the full range (okay 5 or 10 more) of words for intercourse, from the sublime to the guttural, I'm always glad for a quick lesson.

ita, did you do your genre analysis yourself or does Netflix have a tool somewhere to do such a thing?
I have 500 things in my queue now -- there is NO WAY that I'm going to go through them all.
I may have a French movie in there somewhere or other.
Okay, the highest ranked foreign film I have is at 59. . . still in the first 100. (And there are a bunch of foreign films right around there.)

It would be sweet if they did, but no. I copied the queue table into Excel and ran the subtotalling there after I jettisoned the extra stuff.
