Netflix has revolutionized the way we watch movies and television, starting simply by mailing titles directly to your house, then evolving into the streaming mecca of all things instantly watchable. Let’s be honest though, how often do we still get Netflix titles in the mail? How many of us have the same Netflix envelope from eight moths ago sitting on our dresser, pushed aside for television series binge-watching and impulse selections? We’ve all been there, and we’re all still paying for that monthly by-mail DVD delivery subscription because hey, you never know, right?
Shifting our sights to the Netflix Watch Instantly catalog, scrolling through title after title can be one of the most intimidating experiences a normal human has to encounter. How many of you sit there for 20 minutes cycling through lists of movies only to become frustrated, give up, and pop in one of your go-to crowd pleasers? Well, have no fear my indecisive brethren, because we here at We Got This Covered would love to help with your nightly movie picking conundrums by offering our vast expertise in the art of movie selecting and watching. We watch ALL of the movies so you only have to see the good ones!
