After Exhaustive Research, Here Is The ULTIMATE MOVIE STREAMING GUIDE

ICYMI, MovieRankings.net is under construction so we aren't going to be able to update where movies are streaming for a while. As sort of an apology, I decided to spend the day parsing through the big 3 streaming services and find all of the best movies among the most popular genres. It took a long ass time but it was worth it to know what movies are on these platforms beyond the original content they plaster on every home page. 

You will recognize a lot of familiar favorites without a doubt. Some of them, though, are closer to being considered a hidden gem. I went through and selected some movies that I feel haven't been watched a ton and could use more eyes on them. You will see them in BOLD throughout the lists. It took a long ass time sifting through the insane amount of garbage on all these platforms so I hope you all enjoy! 

Happy streaming!

P.S. If you're wondering why I didn't include Prime Video or Disney+ the answer is simple. Disney+ is just Disney stuff so you know what is there. And Prime video's interface is just a fucking nightmare to try and surf genres in. Honestly, the entirety of Prime video (except for the X-Ray feature) fucking sucks really bad. Figure it out, Bezos
