Coincidentally Netflix Instant Watch just added Miramax films last week. I've rewatched Chasing Amy and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Clerks is next! Didn't see Dogma, but hope it's in there too.

Only things missing are An Evening with Kevin Smith, Evening Harder, and Threevening. Too Fat for Forty is pretty boss though.
