In the streaming video wars, Miramax has today settled comfortably into the role of Switzerland. That sweet deal it lined up with Netflix a few weeks ago? Today they announced basically the same for Hulu. Good Will Hunting all around!
I know. Sometimes Netflix Watch Instantly seems like an endless stream of Daddy Daycare sequels, as more and more studios strip away the good stuff. But take heart! Miramax just signed a multi-year agreement that’s going to deliver lots of high-quality movies starring people with cool accents, starting in June.
I have the feeling Miramax is sending the wrong message here: After bemoaning the lack of an Adventureland torrent on Twitter, Amanda got a vaguely threatening reply from MiramaxFilms, which then offered her free tickets.
