For anyone who missed Shark Week on The Discovery Channel in June, Netflix should now be a viable substitute. Already offering Shark Lake, 3-Headed Shark Attack, Avalanche Sharks, Mega Shark Versus Mecha Shark, and the first three Sharknado films, subscribers to the world's leading on-demand streaming service will also have access to the entire Jaws franchise beginning September 1.

Still two of the biggest actors in the business today, both Kevin Bacon and Tom Cruise became household names and Hollywood heartthrobs after their breakthrough roles in the 1980s. For Kevin Bacon, it was his battle against John Lithgow in Footloose in 1984. For Tom Cruise, it was his feud with Val Kilmer in Top Gun in 1986. In September of 2016, Netflix makes both movies available to stream on-demand.Classic 90s Movies
While it may not be quite as good as the original Bill & Ted film, Bogus Journey, released in 1991, still provides a glimpse at a young Keanu Reeves before he took on more serious roles in films like Speed, Johnny Mnemonic, and The Matrix. Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey is also a good excuse to see the late George Carlin as he reprises the role of Rufus.Movies From This Millennium
In September, Netflix brings subscribers a campy musical battle between Queen Latifah and Dolly Parton in Joyful Noise. As noted by Vanity Fair, Keke Palmer and Jeremy Jordan join the cast in this 2012 gospel-centric musical. For viewers who want less music and more dancing, Netflix will make 2007's Stomp the Yard available on September 1, with appearances from Ne-Yo and Chris Brown, who also show up in the soundtrack.RELATED REPORTS BY THE INQUISITR
