Fans of 80 movies are going to love whats coming to Netflix this month. Fans of blockbusters are going to be disappointed when they see what is leaving. It's one of those months. For 80's fans we have Rambo 1,2, and 3, and Monster Squad (although it is sad that The Lost Boys are leaving).
The biggest news is that Netflix didn't renew their deal with EPIX. For those that don't know EPIX is a cable channel that brings the latest big studio movies to TV. They have had a contract for Netflix to show the movies that premiere on their channel. So blockbusters like The Hunger Games, Transformers: Age of Extinction, and Wolf of Wall Street. You might be asking why Netflix is letting the contract expire? Well the answer is easy. They want exclusive content. Netflix wasn't the only one that had a contract with EPIX, Amazon Prime had the same contract. Which is why Netflix and Amazon Prime had a lot of similar content. Netflix wants movies that no one else has and let the contract go in favor of more original programming. Netflix does has a contract with Disney which will give them the rights to stream Disney movies starting in 2016. With Netflix passing on the EPIX contract Hulu picked it up and Amazon Prime still has their contract so still plenty of places to stream those movies.
Also of note Amazon Prime now offers offline viewing of some of their shows and movies. This feature use to be available on Amazon Fire Tablets but now for all users of the app.
Below is the list of movies coming and going from CNET.com
