Everything Coming to Netflix in August

Posted

From Forbes.com

The streaming giant doesn't disappoint in August, with a wide range of content for every audience. We'll go over the highlights before moving on to the Big List of what's coming to Netflix in August.

For DC comics fans, the month kicks off with Batman Begins. The excellent first entry in Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy pits the Caped Crusader against an old friend. If you somehow haven't seen this movie, please do yourself a favor and watch it on August 1st. On a lighter note, you can check out Kevin Smith's cult-classic Clerks, though be prepared for some very, very off-color humor.

If you're looking for more comedic TV, check out Season 2 of The Good Place which sidles onto Netflix on the 28th. The after-life comedy is from Michael Shur, who worked on The Office before going on to Parks & Recreation and Brooklyn 99.

For the fantasy-inclined, both The Lord Of The Rings: Fellowship Of The Ring and The Golden Compass land on Netflix August 1st---two fantasies that could not be more different from one another, based on books from two authors with very different takes on Catholicism.

Voltron: Legendary Defender: Season 7 lands on Netflix on August 10th. It's a great reboot of the original series from the makers of the Avatar: The Last Airbender series.

Speaking of animated series, my most hotly-anticipated show of the month is Disenchanted from Matt Groening, the creator of The Simpsons and Futurama. The new series is about a rowdy princess on a magical journey of self-discovery and it looks hilarious and amazing. Here's a trailer:

That's not the only adult-oriented cartoon coming to Netflix in August. On the 31st we'll get to dig into Paradise PD, the new cop-comedy from the makers of Brickleberry. It looks pretty darn funny, too.

Other highlights include Season 5 of the excellent CW show The 100, Clint Eastwood's Gran Torino and the Coen Brothers' film No Country For Old Men.
