Netflix is getting rid of "The Sandlot?" You're killing me, Smalls.

20th Century Fox

Netflix's August information is here! "No Country for Old Men" might be the most critically-acclaimed movie heading to Netflix in August. If that's not for you, maybe watch the most Nic-Cage-y movie headed to Netflix in August, "The Family Man."

Netflix might have it out for Eddie Murphy in August. Three of his movies disappear on August 1, "Bowfinger," "The Nutty Professor" and "Vampire in Brooklyn." If you can only watch just one of those movies, just make sure it's not "Vampire in Brooklyn."

Speaking of awful movies, "A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge" is leaving Netflix at the end of August. It is truly a terrible, terrible movie. Is it so bad it's good?

No.
