It’s almost a fresh month. Jan. 2017 brings a new year, resolutions to eagerly make and quickly forget, and a slew of changes to the Netflix lineup.
New in January, you’ll be able to stream classics including “Caddyshack,” “Braveheart,” and “E.T. the Extra Terrestrial.” The lovable 1961 “The Parent Trap” hits streaming, and is remains one of the best camp movies of all time.
Stanley Kubrick’s tour de force “The Shining” joins the streaming roster as well. One of 2015’s best films, and arguably the horror genre’s finest entry in years, “It Follows” makes its way to streaming.
The Netflix Original Series list continues growing. Sensations such as “Stranger Things,” “Black Mirror,” and “Easy,” bolster the syndicated catalog and offer further incentive to maintain that Nexflix subscription. “A Series of Unfortunate Events” debuts in Jan. 2017, along with a smattering of originals including “Voltron: Legendary Defender: Season 2.”
But with arrivals come departures. “Blade 2,” one of my favorite superhero movies, leaves. Eddie Murphy’s criminally underrated “Coming to America” goes to non-streaming land. Classic like “Saving Private Ryan,” “Miracle on 34th Street,” and “Sixteen Candles” won’t be available for streaming either. But one title no one will miss: “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.” Goodbye and good riddance.
Check out the full change log below, and manage your queues accordingly. What are you most excited to see, and what will you miss the most?
