Question Unknown number, Chloe’s mum comment

Upvotes

What did Chloe’s mom mean when she said, ‘I told someone that Shaun and Lauryn were going to come off looking like the victims.’ She says this towards the end of the program. Was she suggesting they were all in it together, ie Kendra, Shaun and Lauryn?

Discussion Alice in borderland and Inception (2010) parallels are uncanny

Upvotes

Just finished binging both seasons of AIB before s3 comes out and i noticed something very ummm interesting. the parallels between the movie inception by chris nolan and AIB are too hard to ignore,

- for instance, the whole idea of going into borderland when ur unconscious in the real world, and second being able to 'communicate' with others who r in the same state

- and the fact that time passes by so much slower in BL than in the real-world, the fact that the players in AIB spinoff used a 'totem' that was unique to them to remind them that they're still in BL and not in the real world.

- the fact that entering the BLands can be done through a 'coma' induction.

- and also the fact that if u die in the BL you essentially fall into limbo and die in the real world..

there are so many more similarities (tbh at this point the same ideas not even similarities lol) and considering the AIB manga came out in like nov of 2010 and inception was released a bit before that makes it a bit interesting as to who ripped off who lol what do yall think?

SPOILERS? Unknown Number the Highschool Catfish- I'm sorry did I just watch Netflix give a platform to a predator completely glossing over the fact that she was sexually aggressive with minors? Spoiler

She's a pedophile and a predator. I'm disgusted. She took no accountability and Netflix tried giving her some sympathetic image? Gross. Her daughter needs tons of therapy

Discussion Unknown number: The high school catfish… Spoiler

Upvotes

This foolishness and fuckery in retrospect. First tf off… WHY TF DID NETFLIX CENTER THE OFFENDER. Kendra didn’t deserve to make this all about her and her story. This is about Owen, Khloe, his mother, Kendra’s husband and Lauryn. This should have been about the victims. They should have highlighted everything Kendra took from Shawn (Kendra’s husband.) Kendra is literally a family annihilator without the redrum.

Why didn’t Netflix put more emphasis on the sexual messages to minors??? Why did Netflix make a mockery of this situation??? Why didn’t they center the other parents? Why platform a literal abuser??

Y’all might drag me for this but I feel like Lauryn’s reactions are odd. Like I didn’t see any shock or surprise or even anger. I’m extremely surprised that the fact that Lauryn stayed in constant contact with her mother. It almost seems… dismissive of the whole ordeal.

Shawn and Lauryn lost EVERYTHING and Kendra is making it seem cool. I’m just appalled.

Discussion Hate weekly drop shows

36 Upvotes

Really disappointed to see Netflix starting to go to the “Weekly drop” model of series shows. I wish they would just drop their new series all at one time and allow the viewer to decide how and when they want to watch ( or binge watch). For me, having entire shows dropped at one time, differentiated Netflix from a lot of other services and was somethingI valued. I’m I alone here?

Discussion Unknown Number: The High-school Catfish. Kendra Spoiler

8 Upvotes

Kendra must have mental health issues like they mentioned Munchausens once. This woman is UNWELL. I think they should have been a little more concerned about the insane sexual and violent texts she was sending to MINORS. Let alone her DAUGHTER. She was really telling her daughter to kill herself!!! And Kendra had the audacity to say that she wasn't worried about her daughter hurting herself. What a selfish demented woman. We dont know that Lauryn didnt hurt herself. WHAT MADE ME THE MOST UPSET WAS HER TELLING THE OFFICERS THAT SHE WAS UPSET ABOUT HOW LAURYN WOULD BE TREATED AT SCHOOL NOW. like lady you vetoed that right to care the second you messaged your daughter. I dont care what happened in your childhood or what mental illnesses you have, it never makes it okay for something like this. And shes acting like shes off the hook because she didnt send the first texts. SHE SENT THE WORST ONES. Poor Lauryn, God only knows how she truly feels about what happened. How do you recover from that?

Discussion Poor picture quality (wired gigabit with Roku)

0 Upvotes

I have gigabit fiber and a wired connection between my Roku and my switch, and a 1080p TV, and the standard 1080p plan.

The last couple of times I watched a movie on Netflix the picture quality was terrible. Last night I watched Jurassic Park and several scenes looked like there was sand on the screen. This was not film grain. These were stationary light colored dots in a general banding pattern, especially in the darker areas of the picture. It was different from the compression artifacts you see in dark scenes where you see banding between two shades of dark gray, often in a night sky. These were brightly colored points, like white sand.

It happened the other day too but I don't remember what movie I was watching. At the time I thought it was a fluke.

For comparison, I binged The White Lotus on HBO Max the night before for several hours and never once saw anything like this.

Discussion Unknown number unpopular opinions Spoiler

30 Upvotes

Reading the comments here, most people agree Kendra is a psychopath and pedophile, which: yes absolutely. And I agree she needs to be locked away for a much longer time (and studied). But there are some other takes I had that I don’t see reflected. What do you think, and what unpopular opinions do you have? Please share:

  1. Yes, obviously Kendra was fixated on Owen, even when he was still a little prepubescent boy (sick). And she was jealous of Lauryn for being with him. That’s all the comments I’ve read. But I believe it went much deeper than that. She was also deeply jealous that her daughter was growing into a pretty teenager who had her whole life ahead of her and hadn’t fucked up her marriage, finances and life like Kendra had. Owen was the target of her fixation but It wasn’t only about Owen. There’s a lot more going on.

  2. I’m sorry but Owen’s parents/mother are not the heroes people are making them out to be. Why in the free world would they not take the kid’s phone away? He was being harassed into a place of suicidal ideation. They are terrible parents for letting him just deal with it while the mom pranced around pretending she was a star on Law & Order

  3. Lauryn’s dad was an incompetent father. I believe Kendra is a master manipulator but what the hell must he have been doing to not see signs that something was terribly wrong? I think he was having affairs/a double life or at the very least was willfully burying his head in the sand. What do you mean you trusted your wife to handle your daughter’s severe sexual harassment and abuse? You didn’t think you should help? You didn’t think the situation warranted all hands on deck? Where the hell were you? And all he could say about Lauryn now is that she’s “growing” and will be a “beautiful woman.” Something is also off with him.

  4. Regarding Lauryn's non-emotional reaction to what her mom did to her: Lauryn never had close friends and was always quiet and withdrawn, per all her peers. Owen said she was trying to isolate him from his friends so it was just “the two of us”. As far as we saw, Kendra was her primary parent, with barely any paternal involvement. Kendra’s sociopathic ways are normal to Lauryn because it’s all she knows. I hope she gets a lifetime of therapy.

Brooooo when Kendra says “ i know a lot of us made mistakes and broke the law but didnt get caught”, BYE, this is not a mistake this is a deliberate decision that she made over and over. This wasnt a OOPSIE moment. And no Kendra, we have not all broke the law but got away with it, and certainly not to this level. Please, the rationalization of it all. People try to logically rationalize their actions as if it makes them understandable. Girl, Hitler had his reasons too, and was very convincing in his rationale, he still was a monster. That woman gives me chills. I have strong reasons to believe her daughter will cut her off way later in life, when she is going to become more aware. At the moment, she’s too young to fully process it and have perspective. She’s in a bubble. She clearly doesnt seem to fully understand.

Basic post but I saw this a few months ago, and boy did I love it. Always been a sucker for gov't or just big conspiracy style docs and films, but of course, they're usually laughable in how utterly bonkers they are. This felt like, regardless of how much you agree or not, there was really something going on here.

Any other docs out there exploring big, believable gov't/institutional/generally big conspiracies in a grounded, worthwhile, and believable way?

I'm an artist. Sometimes when I'm watching shows or movies, I find a scene where there is an interesting pose or lighting scenario that I'd like to draw or use as reference.

I've noticed that whenever you screenshot while watching a show, the screenshot is just blacked out. I assume this is for some copyright reason to prevent people from stealing the content.

Is there a way I can screenshot or save a specific frame?

Question The Household shit is so infuriating

2 Upvotes

Was just trying to watch Netflix AT HOME on my account. My mother and I both use this account, we live together but we both travel a lot. Now I'm unable to watch on my own account at home because it's not part of this household? It's also not giving me the option to change this setting anywhere.

Logged in now to my account through the code and it's not giving me the option to adjust my household even?

Update: I contacted support and they told me to use the temporary code and that after 14 days all devices will be seen as trusted?

I did mention that it's separate locations but me and my mother are still the ones using this account. I don't use a Smart TV at home tho so that's why I can't set this place as my temporary location.

Technical Support Living in two places and having one Netflix account?

3 Upvotes

I move states about twice a week (once to my work place for 3 days and then back), but not that regularly in holiday season and when I‘m jammed with work. So wherever I live I would love to have a Netflix account (even if just on mobile). But because of the forbidden account sharing and Netflix thinking I am some user from another household, my log in on my phone and other devices got blocked since I couldn’t log in in my home wifi in the required time period. Any advice what I could do?
