I edited to throw Offside into the mix as well.  Someone here just saw that, right?  Any good?

Yeah it was good. Probably not best picture material, but very good and possibly worthy of other nominations.

Hot Fuzz and Ratatouille. I really want to say Waitress as well but I'd go with those two.

So, I want to watch something on Watch Now on netflix that would be eligible for filmspots, but I know not what. Suggestions?

I haven't terribly excited by most of the 2007 films I've seen.  Tekkonkinkreet as a whole is very problematic, but moment-to-moment it has more inspiration than most films.  That's the best I got ... not sure if it meets your Netflix criteria though...

...adding, I haven't seen it, but it looks like Chalk is available.  Good if you need a candidate for Best Debut Feature...

...or Helvetica, if you need a Documentary candidate and you have faith in skjerva...

...or This Is England, as was recommended to me a few posts above by the combined entity of karlWilson...

I'm looking at This is England, No End in Sight, Blame It On Fidel!, Chalk, and Helvetica.

With apologies to roujin, I'd cross Blame It on Fidel off your list (though it plays better in my memory than it did live).

Crazy Love might prove worthwhile, perhaps allowing me to bump Superbad off of my nominees for Worst Film.  Worst Film seems too harsh a designation for a film with McLovin, Miroki, and Michael Cera, but I tend to avoid the really bad films, so it's one of the best I have.  Unless Crazy Love can continue on like this...

It only gets worse towards the end.
