A few people have noted this is not a complete list and the items could disappear forever, a few months, or even just a few days depending on Netflix’s deals. That being said, there’s still plenty to watch, and they’ll be listing new items around the same time these go bye-bye. According to another reddit thread, these are some of the movies to be added:

• American Psycho (2000)
• Raging Bull (1980)
• Thelma And Louise (1991)
• West Side Story (1961)
• What’s Eating Gilbert Grape (1993)
• Big Trouble In Little China (1986)

Personally, I’m still waiting for them to get it together on offering sequels and trilogies on instant watch but not the original film a lot of the time.
