Netflix Knows Me All Too Well...


So today I logged into Netflix, and the welcome page greeted me. As usual, a plethora of film suggestions appeared based on what Netflix claim to be my demonstrated movie taste.

Normally these suggestions range from treacly family fare to straight-to-video action b-movies... a bizarre assortment which never ceases to baffle me, and pretty much never results in me hitting the "add to queue" button.

But- today- Netflix finally got it right! Apparently the "system" has finally made sense of my eclectic film tastes-- because the suggested sub-genre of films which it recommended to me was entitled "Romantic Movie Starring James Stewart." It pretty much doesn't get more spot-on than that where my cinematic interests are concerned...

Thankfully I got a screencap to preserve the moment while it lasted-- by the next day the homepage had reverted back to its old ways, recommending Vin Diesel flicks and and obscure educational videos... but it was nice while it lasted!
