MSF, I pity you in a way. There's certainly nothing wrong with having high standards when it comes to preferences in film, but you have set yours so high you can see no value in a film that is even a little lower than your threshold rating.
Regarding the vast array of films on Netflix, if you'd lighten up a bit and watch a few that you don't think will be any good, you will find many that are worthy and can be enjoyed.
I've bailed on a few that I could tell weren't going to be my cup of tea, but I've stuck with quite a few that didn't reveal their worth until partway through and I ended up falling in love with them.
A few off the top of my head… all very different, but I was glad I saw all of these.

Re: Where Are The GOOD Movies From Netflix?
I'll try to check them out. When I started taking movies seriously at 17, I would rent a lot of random movies from Blockbuster, and had to watch a lot of bad movies to get to some great ones. My brother is one of many who stopped watching movies, and he's only going to dedicate a limited amount of time, and only watching a few movies, so I basically tell him (and others) that I watched a lot of shit so he didn't have to, and give him the cream of the crop, but also hoping that he would take the dozens of movies I recommend, find what he loves best, and share his "cream of the crop" with people he interacts with.
I am picky, but I think it's because we have the internet, where people can watch so many movies for free, and with so many options, mass consumption is available. I want to find the best possible, because it gets me back on track, and makes me hungry for more, like the last kick I had with (mostly) Eastern European "New Wave" movies, which inspired me to want to watch more. Then when I've exhausted that, I'll check out movies made by the directors. At 17, 99% of the time, I refused to bail out, because I wanted to be open-minded and give everything a chance, but with self-awareness, I try to go with the probabilities. When I see bad movie after bad movie, I'm less likely to see another one.
Thanks for providing a list. If you ever need a recommendation, feel free to ask; I'd be more than happy to provide them.

Re: Where Are The GOOD Movies From Netflix?
Have you ever heard the expression "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good"?
You are letting the great movies be the enemy of good movies. Just because a movie doesn't rise to the level of your top 100 doesn't mean it can't be enjoyed. There are many, many good movies out there worth your time.
Try to get inside the screenwriter's and/or the director's head and see what their vision is. Enjoy it for what it is. If you're put off by a scene you don't think is believable or some other thing that bothers you, don't give up on it. You could be missing a great finish.

Re: Where are the GOOD films from Netflix?!?…
I checked several on your list at the What's on Netflix site and none of them are showing up.
Searching the Netflix United States Database
Searches title names, actors and directors.
No titles found in the library

Re: Where are the GOOD films from Netflix?!?…
All of those are not available on Netflix (streaming) right now, and based on your screencaps, you ordered the discs for many of them.
For example IaWL:

Re: Where are the GOOD films from Netflix?!?…
, but discs from Netflix are STILL Netflix, even if NOT streaming.

Re: Where Are The GOOD Movies From Netflix?
But you're not 19, you're 60. Fucking weirdo. And of course you take "quite awhile" to read the descriptions because you're retarded.
Re: Where Are The GOOD Movies From Netflix?
It's not a movie, but give 'All of us are dead' a shot. It's quite good.

Where Are The GOOD Movies From Netflix?
Why don't they have a classic movies section? Or by the decades? Or independent and/or low-budget movies from the past? I will try to find a way to send them e-mails from every burner account, saying I'm 19 (so they know I could be a potential customer for a long time) but that I prefer movies from the 30-70s, including documentaries and other things from that era. I also noticed that out of the hundred movies I do like that are new, that none of them are on netflix.
If you have a recommendation, please list away. I browser every single movie, taking quite a while to read the description, and then checking out the trailer. I added "The Florida Project" after turning it off after 5 minutes a year ago, but nothing else came close to grabbing my attention.
