Who is your most influential Netflix (but not Ning) member?

A little update to the title, based on a friend message I received today and have been mulling over. We are all very nice, and the thread has given us the chance to express how much we like each other, but I don't want it to turn into too much of a love fest! (Although the occasional love fest is indeed great -- just ask Caligula!)

My intention with the the thread is to focus on excellent Netflix members from our assorted friend & fave lists, who are NOT already with us here on Ning -- in hopes that we might be able to get them to join us here.

If you are friends with someone who has been highlighted here, you might put the "Netflix Notes" function to good use and invite them to join us. My theory is that every movie-loving and movie-centric person we can get to join us only serves to make the experience better and more enlightening for all, and minimize some of the negativity that goes on from the gray avatars and others who come here, but don't care or post about film.

But then on the next page, he called Kenneth Branuagh "seriously overrated".

So now the jury is still out. ;)

I'm not sure I've seen a reviewer who totally blew me away yet, but Bob Borka is THE MAN when it comes to listss. Incredibly creative.; ▶ Reply to This

Yes, Bob is a great lister. The titles alone rule.; ▶ Reply to This

Basically go to the XP group, pick any member in there and I bet you I find them incredibly useful when picking movies. Between that group and their reviews on the main site I've got thousands of movies to watch.; ▶ Reply to This

I'm not an every-page-you've-written NF review follower, but I think I've encountered at least a couple reviews from everyone who is mentioned or has posted here, and I've enjoyed all of you. And, yes, E. Manderthal should write some more.; ▶ Reply to This
