Welcome to your Netflix Streaming Report for October 1, 2015. After the long week you deserve a relaxing staycation with a bowl of popcorn, a bucket of ice cream, and only your Netflix queue to judge you. This past week, Netflix Watch Instant has been kind enough to supply us with The Walking Dead Season 5, Batman Begins, Love Actually, The Wedding Singer, and more. Also, see all the titles that are leaving this month.

The Walking Dead Season 5 (Scott M. Gimple) Police officer Rick Grimes leads a group of survivors in a world overrun by zombies. Starring Andrew Lincoln, Steven Yuen, Norman Reedus, Chandler Riggs, Melissa McBride, Lauren Cohan, Emily Kinney, and Danai Gurira

Das good, eh? Sí. Me gusta. Season 4 started off strong, but became aggravatingly slow in its later half. Season 5 is unrelenting. There’s never a dull moment despite a more transitional back eight episodes in the Alexandria Safe-Zone. It’s only setting up to a big premiere with Season 6 starting up October 13. And it’s going to be a really great season. Binge! Binge! Binge!

Love Actually (Richard Curtis) Rated R [135 min] – Follows the lives of eight very different couples in dealing with their love lives in various loosely interrelated tales all set during a frantic month before Christmas in London, England. Starring Hugh Grant, Martine McCutcheon, Liam Neeson, Bill Nighy, Colin Firth, Emma Thompson, Martin Freeman, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Keria Knightley, and Andrew Lincoln

Is it too soon for Christmas movies? Yes. Is it a hilarious coincidence that this film and The Walking Dead Season 5 both appeared on Netflix streaming within the same week? Double yes.

Batman Begins (Christopher Nolan) Rated PG-13 [140 min] – After training with his mentor, Batman begins his war on crime to free the crime-ridden Gotham City from corruption that the Scarecrow and the League of Shadows have cast upon it. Starring Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Ken Watanabe, Liam Neeson, Katie Holms, Gary Oldman, and Cillian Murphy

It’s not the Dark Knight trilogy film we deserve, but the one Netflix subscribers need? It’s not what Netflix is underneath, but what they choose to stream that defines them?

American Pie (Paul Weitz) Rated R [95 min] – Four teenage boys enter a pact to lose their virginity by prom night. Starring Jason Biggs, Chris Klein, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Alyson Hannigan, Shannon Elizabeth, Eddie Kay Thomas, Sean William Scott, Tara Reid, Natasha Lyonne, and Eugene Levy

This coming of age teen sex comedy holds a special place in my heart. It’s like what Scream did to the horror genre. American Pie was a complete revitalization for comedies and it still withstands the test of time because of how relatably hilarious it is.
