Help Needed.

[Anniemouse]

I have pretty much run out of Jason DVD's and so I need a few pointers.

I have read the list of work Jason has done and am missing so many movies and tv pieces.

If I sign on to something like Netflix do I
Need a smart tv
Does it need to plug into the internet
Would I still need to purchase a system like a box or stick to access shows.

I am a ludite so I have no idea about digital shows on tv.

Also I am so frustrated at not seeing many of Jason's work

Awake *
Ashenden *
OA *
London Fields
Look Away
The Dark Crystal
Tennis Anyone *
Civvies
The Infiltrator
Rosemay's Baby
Dig
Dawn
A Single Shot
La Conjura de El Escorial (aka The El Escorial Conspiracy) *
Pleading Guilty
Stockholm Pennsylvania

Are all projects I would love to see.

Any idea's?

As a fellow Luddite, I will defer to those more techno-knowledgeable to help you out. Also a fellow Brit could help you with what you'd need to get set up in the UK. Hoping you get up and running soon.

I remember for Awake which I bought on console to watch, but most of the Jason stuff I actually got on DVD, I'll list mine below:

Awake ( PS3 & PS4)
DIG
Brotherhood
Case Histories
The Tuxedo
The Patriot ( 2 copies)
Abduction
Rosemary's Baby
The End Of The Affair
Sweet November
Black Hawk Down
Harry Potter
A Cure For Wellness
Divorcing Jack
Pot Luck
Chumscrubber
Armageddon

I have others but can't think of them, need to open the box to get the rest...

I ordered Potluck but the DVD was damaged and the seller in the post so went back to the seller. So you can access through a console I am really confused now.

You can watch Netflix online on your PC or tablet. If you use a TV you would need a Smart TV with a Netflix App. The cheapest subscription is £5.99/month. You can cancel anytime.

The App on my TV doesn't work (known issue with Samsung TVs, couldn't get any of the workarounds to work for me), but my PC has a large screen, so I watch on that. I have an iPad, and the Netflix App works on that, and I use that too.

Netflix has The Dark Crystal, The OA and Star Trek: Discovery (Jason is only in season 1).

I believe he is now in the new series of Sex Education on Netflix too.

Thank you all for the advice.

So far I have worked out I need a new tv. By the way does the tv need to be plugged into the internet itself for this all to work.

Yes, but you don't need a "plug" unless you don't have WiFi at home. If you have WiFi then your Smart TV will work with it too, like all your other devices do. You get setup instructions with the TV.

You can watch Netflix via its website on a computer, but on a TV you need the App - so check before you buy that it will work on whatever brand of TV you buy. (It's possible that the problems I had don't exist with new TVs, but best to be sure before you spend the money.)

Thank you for the help.

Thank you for taking the time and giving localized advice, Servalan.
To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure I'd bother with Potluck. The movie is nonsensical, JI's part pretty brief (I think, it's been a long time), and I'm fairly confident that the copy I have is a legitimate commercial product, and it's AWFUL. The sound quality was really muddy, and the whole thing just seems very amateur.
