Pee-wee’s Big Holiday is the perfect Netflix movie: snackable and totally disposable1 min read
Reading Time: < 1 minuteWhen Netflix first started making its own television shows it may have seemed like a lark, but the company has nearly single-handedly changed the way we watch television. People started binge-watching with DVDs, sure, but releasing an entire season of an original show at one time fundamentally altered the way we consume and talk about the medium, and even how it’s made (it’s hard to imagine the slow burn of Bloodline lasting long even on a cable network).
Now that the company has been getting into original movies, it’s fair to wonder if they’ll have a similar impact. With Netflix unable to get its films into major theatre chains, many of its feature-length releases are skipping theatres altogether, resulting in films that are essentially optimised for home viewing. The upcoming Pee-wee’s Big Holiday is a great example of what that may end up looking like. It’s not a film that you’d necessarily want to shell out $10 for, but if you’re looking to put something on so you can Pee-wee and chill, it’s the perfect fit.
