Love means knowing when to let go – or at least that's what Netflix will be telling you during the month of Valentine's Day, as the streaming service announced today what movies and TV shows will receive the kiss of death in February.
All things considered, though, by my eyes, there's few heartbreaking movie losses on this list. No one is mourning the loss of "King Arthur" (no, not the flop from this summer but the flop from 2004. Oh, you forgot both? Fair enough). The same goes for the likes of "Perfect Stranger" and "Project X." Losing classics like "The Longest Day," "Silver Streak" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas" sting a little bit, but otherwise, this list lets you down easy – at least on the film side. TV is a little harsher, killing off the remaining seasons of popular shows like "Family Guy" and "Burn Notice." But still, this list is more sweet than sour.

As much as it is a gigantic cliché to say that one has always had a passion for film, Matt Mueller has always had a passion for film. Whether it was bringing in the latest movie reviews for his first grade show-and-tell or writing film reviews for the St. Norbert College Times as a high school student, Matt is way too obsessed with movies for his own good.
When he's not writing about the latest blockbuster or talking much too glowingly about "Piranha 3D," Matt can probably be found watching literally any sport (minus cricket) or working at - get this - a local movie theater. Or watching a movie. Yeah, he's probably watching a movie.
