After ten long years of podcasting, it's come to this: another What's New to Netflix commentary episode. We give a full-length commentary to a movie streaming now on Netflix, though in the case of this title, you might have to watch it somewhere else, unfortunately. If you do end up getting the chance to view this flick from the comfort of your couch, you'll be joining us as we watch The Nice Guys, starring Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling, who, as the poster suggests, are "not that nice." Shane Black directs this goofy period neo-noir from 2016 featuring lots of heavy drinking and limbs getting injured. It's a groovy scene, man! WARNING: This is not a typical episode of What's New to Netflix. This is an audio commentary. This episode is meant to be listened to while you watch The Nice Guys. If you try to listen to this episode and you are not watching The Nice Guys along with us, a lot of this will not make any sense. got a suggestion for the show?: whatsnewtonetflix@gmail.com
