With a catalog of over 100,000 titles that's perpetuating at a rate that would make the national debt jealous, choosing what to watch from Netflix can be a wild card. Enter "Whatcha Gonna Queue" and co-hosts Jim Rohner and Alex Rabinowitz. Armed with brains saturated by pop culture and no more friends with the patience to listen to their ranting, every week these human recommendation engines highlight the best titles Netflix has to offer based on three categories: instant titles (Instant Karma), little known gems (What the @#$% is This?) and a timely theme (For Your Consideration). You don't HAVE to watch it, but then don't expect us to come to your birthday party afterward.
Full description and show creditsThe 26th episode of Whatcha Gonna Queue? turns out to be the most neurotic ever as Jim and Alex look ahead to this weekend's limited released of Midnight in Paris and decide to dedicate the show to New York-born filmmaker, Woody Allen. Having written over 60 films and directed well over 40, Allen is one of the most prolific filmmaker of all times and also possibly the most neurotic. But who better to make great screwball sex comedies than a guy who's been married 3 times? Before the guys get t...
After a two week hiatus, Jim and Alex are back with their 25th, quarter of a web video century episode of Whatcha Gonna Queue! The dynamic duo have some great recommendations to celebrate this occasion and Jim even prepared a magic trick! (Kind of). Speaking of celebrations, how about those women, huh guys? We do so love the finer gender here on WGQ and in honor of Bridesmaids, co-written by and starring one of the funniest women alive, Kristen Wiig, we've dedicate For Your Consideration to fi...
Like all film fans, Jim and Alex were saddened to hear of the death of legendary filmmaker Sidney Lumet. However, living and working in the city that never sleeps, they were also inspired by the metropolis that inspired him. The city that brought us Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen, Spike Lee and the Tribeca Film Festival, which kicks off tomorrow, is the highlight of this week's episode along with some other movies that are worthy of news you should start spreading. - Alex falls in love (punch-dr...
Whatcha Gonna Queue is back for the 23rd installment of the franchise everybody (read: Jim and Alex's parents) has grown to love. This week, the wily co-hosts look to the release of Scream 4 as both a sad sign of the current state of Hollywood filmmaking and a good opportunity to discuss some sequels that don't cause them to weep and gnash their teeth. More information on that after the first two installments of the show. - Part 1: Instant Karma features Jim's recommendation of Career Opportun...
So Your Highness comes out this weekend, right? It's probably gonna be funny, right? David Gordon Green is some prolific comedy director, right? Wrong! Green, an indie wunderkid who gained notoriety directing character-driven dramas such as George Washington, has so far made comedy the exception to the rule. But we at WGQ applaud the director for defying people's expectations (we've done the same thing by foregoing pants) so we're going to dedicate an episode to other noteworthy directors who ...
You know, Jim and Alex have found it impossible to walk down the street and not be molested by the question of, "hey - where are your pants?" People also ask them what their favorite movies are a lot. Well, to finally put an end to all this rigmarole, they'll say "we don't know" and "watch this episode of Whatcha Gonna Queue to find out" respectively. They'll also recommend some other super duper titles as well, including: - Invasion of the Body Snatchers, the 1978 remake of the 1956 sci-fi cl...
