This is how the humans from Wall-E happen
My Netflix backlog is real. It’s not quite as real as my gaming backlog, but with the news that Netflix will hit 700 new, original movies and TV shows this year alone it’s about to get there. Of course I don’t need to watch all these shows, and I’ll doubt I’ll want to, but with that many movies and shows coming out there’s going to be a ton of good ones that are just going to get virtually stacked up against all those games waiting to be played.
You’ll also be seeing a ton more ads for Netflix as the company is turning towards heavier marketing efforts to promote all this new content. An example of this was theirCloverfield Paradoxcoup in which they paid a ton of money to air an aid during the Super Bowl just to drop the film right then and there for everyone to watch. Even if the movie didn’t turn out that great it was a fantastic bit of marketing on their part.
