Fake Streamer Movie Categories That Should Exist

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping fictional streamer categories into the ol’ VCR.

Several years ago, there was an episode of @midnight w/ Chris Hardwick (f that guy) where the comedians du jour had to name “New Netflix Categories.” 

Riki Lindholm pops off, “Keira Knightley Sobs in a Corset,” and I truly lost my mind.

That joke has stuck with me ever since, and, today, I’d like to throw out some new streamer categories of my own…with a twist. 

I’m not just going to give you fake movie categories; I’m going to give you some movies that belong in said category. 

Don’t say I never did anything for you. 

(JK, it’s to justify my own jokes, so it’s 100% me, not you.) 

Movies where Gina Rodriguez plays a journalist trying to find herself 

  • Players 
  • Someone Great 

Movies where Sandra Bullock has to move into a quirky, old house with maternal figures after a catastrophic life event 

Movies where Sam Rockwell calls everyone “kid” in non-creepy way 

Movies where Luke Wilson plays a supportive partner to a blonde not being taken seriously 

Movies where Justin Long gets trapped in a house 

Movies where Ryan Reynolds plays a variation of an uptight love interest who needs to return to his roots 

Movies where Amanda Bynes is hated by high school mean girls for not being like other girls 

Movies where Lindsay Lohan encounters a supernatural force that forces her to switch lives and/or bodies 

Movies where Adam Sandler screams at children in a non-abusive way
