netflix instant streaming movie release schedule

Well, this week is a bit of a bummer. Due to some contractual spats between STARZ and SONY, all of the movies SONY has home video distribution over were pulled from instant streaming. Notable movies include Easy A and Grown Ups but the biggest loss will be felt this week with The Social Network staying unavailable until the corporations get all the BS squared away.

What do your fellow Flickcharters think?

(From Flickchart discussion for Scott Pilgrim… vs Inception)

soysauce – “The toughest decision of this summer. I loved both. Scott Pilgrim was visual treat, hilarious, and wonderfully entertaining. Inception was a smart sci-fi actioner built around an emotional core. In the end, Inception wins out for me, at least for now. Pilgrim’s presentation was a whole lot more fun, but Inception has a more fleshed out backbone.”

admiralpiett – “Sorry Nolan, but Scott Pilgrim was more visually inventive, and had a metric ton more fun and excitement to it.”

PCNewsOne – “Scott Pilgrim has been accused of having nothing at stake. The motivation at the heart of Inception would appear to be the cathartic letting-go of the guilt surrounding a loved-one’s suicide. Major stuff. So why is it that Inception feels empty while Scott Pilgrim dances delicately around the subject of desire in dazzling 8-bit brashness? The clincher is that Scott Pilgrim’s soundtrack didn’t make me feel nauseous. Scott Pilgrim gets the extra life.”

Knight and Day (Wide Release) – Trailer

I am oddly intrigued by this film. The trailers are such a weird mix of boring cliches and infectious Tom Cruise swagger that it’s got to be worth a watch somewhere down the road. Plus the director, James Mangold, seems to have good taste in what to helm; so I find it hard to believe he would captain a sinking ship.

Grown Ups (Wide Release) – Trailer

I envy the leads in this movie so much. They get paid millions upon millions of dollars to goof around with their buddies all day.
