There are no new movies that come online in any timely manner. I do enjoy the vast library of older and foreign films, but occasionally I need to watch a new one. <\/p>\n<p>\tTwo nights I go I rented The Help from Red Box that is located in front of a nearby 7-11 store. It was only $1.50 per night. No hassle at all and there are hundreds of new titles available.<\/p>\n<p>\tAs high as Netflix stock price has gone and the valuation of the company is at an all time high, I think these are institutional buyers who want to hold a stock that is hot. But the rumble on the street form users is that a lot of people are cancelling their subscriptions.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Scan on February 15, 2012, 11:12 am<\/p>\n<div>I also went to the streaming only but it sucks for movies they have limited selection and they are standard rather than high definition.

The theater also has Apple TV which streams the recent stuff.
