Are there such games? That was my point. My very limited knowledge to that whole thing is based on games that stand on their own.
Either way, we agree it's garbage.
Beyond mobile games? No, although they did try. At one point they had started a AAA studio, but once that didn't immediately bring them success, much like Google's venture into the gaming sphere, they gave up.
In terms of games on the app, I meant more in terms of making people aware that they exist, because I can almost guarantee that most people that have Netflix don't realize they also have access to a bunch of games with their subscription, and unless you're on the mobile app, you wouldn't know they're even available. It's par for the course with Netflix though in terms of discoverability.

Indeed, this can have a deep impact. Perhaps even Armageddon for the industry.Have We Reached the Tipping Point Where Movies Could Stop Being Movies?

In other words, No sir, we won't take No for an answer, even when we've been given a clear answer that they aren't interested! We shall force our way into the hearts of shareholders and they will like it!
Modern-day robber baron. Fuck off.
Warner Bros. Decides Buyer
Warner Bros. Discovery rejects Paramount Skydance’s hostile bid in favor of Netflix’s merger deal.
Netflix Inc. has forged ahead of Paramount Skydance Corp. in bid for Warner Bros. Discovery Inc.
Warner Bros. Discovery’s board of directors rejected Paramount’s $108.4 billion hostile takeover bid Dec. 17. The Burbank-based legacy film studio’s board called Paramount’s offer “inadequate” and “illusory” – even said it “poses significant risk” to its shareholders. The board raised questions about Paramount Chief Executive David Ellison and his billionaire father Larry Ellison’s commitment to back the deal. The latest Paramount offer includes a $40.65 billion equity funding, which would come from a revocable trust fund.

Damn right, skippy!
They can talk about preserving the theatrical experience all they want, but doing so while taking the Last Airbender movie off the theatrical Release schedule to make it streaming-exclusive, even the Last WB shareholder knows the Ellisons are full of shit.
...and yet somehow put Picard in a yellow uniform, which he never wore. 
Now, if he was in a blue one, that would be something.

Creepy AI
You can tell AI has an issue with details when it's a scene zoomed further out. For instance, when Al Pacino is first shown walking towards the camera, it looks nothing like him until they do the closeup. Still kind of fun though seeing so many familiar characters all in one place.
‘Stranger Things’ Finale Delivers $25M+ To Movie Theaters After New Year’s Play, More Than 60% Of That From AMC – Box Office Update
'Stranger Things' Finale Grosses $25M+ for Movie Theaters in concessions

Sources have told Deadline that Netflix have been proponents of a 17-day window which would steamroll the theatrical business, while circuits such as AMC believe the line needs to be held around 45 days.
I don't even know if this says Al Pacino or AI Pacino.
Haha, yeah, he has one of those names that make it more difficult to distinguish, unfortunately.
As far as theatrical windows go, I do feel they are currently too short. I think there needs to be a better balance, as currently the window inherently favors streaming services. From a business standpoint, it of course makes sense that those streaming services would want to have them as soon as possible to make money from their subscribers, but the disadvantage is that theatres are then seen as simply 'a nice thing to have' rather than a necessity. One possible way to make theatres feel special again would be to have director's editions shown in theatres while the streaming services get to have them sooner, but only get the basic versions.
