Looks like you get stuck with subtitles though. Shame as this is only released on dvd this week. Felt like seeing it on Mexico NF but not with foreign subtitles!
No subtitles on Apple TV

It depends in fact. There are subtitles on The Hunger Games for example, not on Criminal Minds.

The Samsung smart TV platform has the ability to switch on/off subtitles or change them. Although there is often the chance to switch off, for Seven Psychopaths there was only the option to switch between Spanish and Portuguese subtitles.

That was especially annoying.

Maybe but I was replying to the poster saying he wasn't going to watch 7 psycos because of the subtitles.

So ? I was giving an additional information for those who are not familiar with other regions? ..........

----------

Hemlock Grove, new Netflix original series, is available on all Netflix regions since April 19th.

For the fans of the Scream movies (ahhh the 90's...), Scream 4 is available on Netflix USA.

And Top Of The Lake.

What you should do use a smart DNS service. It is much faster than a VPN and you have the opportunity to switch Netflix libraries at will.

There are a lot out there, and many people will recommend the one they use. Generally speaking most of the big ones do the job pretty well. I use Overplay and am really happy with it. For more details, you can always check out the Netflix review on my blog which describes the benefits of this over a VPN quite well.

Most definitely Unblock-Us as you not only get access to the US, but 10 Netflix regions in total from the same DNS setting by using their Netflix region selector.
You get a free 7 day trial then its $4.99(£3.20ish) a month thereafter.

For those who haven't seen it,True Grit (2010) is on the Canada and US regions.
For non-techies like me Unblock-Us is very easy to use.

So if you wanted to use Unblock-us on the PS3 would you have to configure the router or just the settings in the PS3, i have a HH3. Just tried clicking the link for configuring router on the homepage and came back invalid link. Im pretty sure i tried those dns numbers yesterday and it wouldnt let me enter netflix. Think i will just keep looking for some decent dns servers.

You have to sign up to a service and not just enter DNS numbers.

Yep, you need to subscribe, Un block then give you their DNS settings for the PS3, its easy to do, just follow the video if your not sure.

You can use it just on the PS3, but you need to follow instructions on the Homepage first 1) Enter email address, 2) Setup device(choose PS3 and follow instructional video), 3) select Netflix region.

That's one of the best DNS services around and you'd be daft to look elsewhere, especially if your thinking of just using some random DNS numbers found on the net as the vast majority use unsecured servers.

Select TV shows, un-tick everything but Netflix, then go by the countries one by one.

You don't even need to do that.
Just select Movies or TV Shows and once you've done your search just click the Netflix icon within the description and it gives a list of which regions you will find it on.
