An all-new episode of What’s New to Netflix Instant!? brings all-new movies and shows to Netflix in March 2021, so we do our best to tell you what you should be checking out and what you might want to avoid this month.
Afterwards we check out the big-budget Korean sci-fi action adventure film, Space Sweepers from 2021. Next, Rosamund Pike makes her living stealing from the elderly, but when she goes after the wrong people she gets in over her head with an organized crime boss, played by Peter Dinklage, in I Care a Lot from 2021. And finally, Owen Wilson relocates his family to Thailand just in time for a giant coup to overthrow the government and hunt him down in No Escape from 2015.
All of this plus the ‘Z’ in Gen Z standing for zines, Team Rocket’s noble intentions, “killer sounds bro”, saying yes to everything has big disadvantages, a show starring those loveable millennials, real-life pirates, and clueless cake creators causing crazy cake-tastrophes.

What's New to Netflix
05/10/17 • 84 min
It’s our year-end episode and we get in the season! We gather around the yule log, watch politicians involved in sex scandals, and witness two Israeli filmmakers change the face of B-Movie cinema in the ‘80s. Very festive!
First up, we explore this month’s new titles, and then we dive right into the wacky world of Cannon Films, a film studio that has contributed to our love of cult cinema, in Electric Boogaloo: The Wild, Untold Story of Cannon Films from 2014.Then we order up a bunch of escorts, while trying to further our political careers in Zipper starring Patrick Wilson from 2015. And last, we try to clean up an oil-spill with a very subdued Nicolas Cage (podcast favorite) as he tries to find meaning his life in The Runner, also from 2015.
Also, we talk about Rob Schneider’s poor taste in choosing scripts, Morgan Spurlock not being an actual documentarian, Adam Sandler’s netflix deal signaling the coming of the apocalypse, and a total lack of holiday-themed films (which neither of us are crying about, honestly). We’ll see you again in 2016!

All of this plus inebriated high schoolers that watch SpongeBob SquarePants, chillin’ with Canadians in Halifax, Nicolas Cage keeps churning out the pap, un-funny comedians with sitcoms, and the glorious long-awaited return of Bob & David.

It’s another episode of What’s New To Netflix Instant!? and since we experienced some technical difficulties with this one, we actually had to re-record this one twice. So it’s twice the fun, twice the entertainment, and twice the laughs (for us, not for you)!
After we go through the month’s new titles, we take a trek through the jungle with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson as we have the tooth fairy explained to us by Christopher Walken in The Rundown from 2003. Next, we ride around and smoke PCP with Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke in Training Day from 2001. And last, we stage the moon-landing with Rupert Grint, Ron Perlman and tons of LSD dropping hippies (yes!!) as we talk about Moonwalkers from 2015.
All of this plus terrible Aerosmith songs from Michael Bay movies, acting advice from William Shatner, the magical powers of toxic waste, 30 year-old spoilers, the boring side of the 1960s, and pretentious movie summaries found on ScreenCrush.com.

All of this plus our first stoned movie experiences, Flintstones-style motorsports, unlikely roles for Denzel Washington, Home Improvement without a laugh track, and the educated guesses of why Tom Hanks would dress like Colonel Sanders.
