The streamer has, is, and will continue to revolutionize the entertainment industry in ways no one could have imagined. DVD deliveries have given way to making binging a thing, and all that is giving way to...the distribution of major feature films.
And the game gets changed again.
Here’s the latest: Netflix will be handling the release of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: The Green Legend for The Weinstein Company.
Whoa.
Not to worry if you don’t have Netflix for some crazy reason, though (how do you watch Orange Is the New Black?): The film – starring returning stars Michelle Yeoh (pictured here) and Ziyi Zhang and Donnie Yen – also will be released on IMAX when it debuts next August.

Update: Wanna know who is not into this move?
The big theater chains of America, like Regal Cinemas and Cinemark. They have no interest (right now) in participating in this “day-and-date movie release.”
