It was a simple shot, a closeup of a clothing tag being pushed up by the tip of a finger to reveal the underside. Behind it, the peaks of the mountains on Patagonia's instantly recognizable logo were visible. In the foreground, on the flip size of the part of the tag that presumably noted the sizing, a four-word message: "Vote the assholes out."

The good news, though, is that there are still thousands of films on Netflix—3,781, according to one report. But by the time anybody tried to scroll your way through more than 3,000 options, movie night would be long over. So here's a list of some of the very best movies on the platform right now.

You mean those much-maligned, many-pocketed, most-of-the-leg coverings that have become a sort of shorthand punchline for a certain style of dressing that is, shall we say, not exactly smiled upon by the arbiters of good taste? Yes. Those cargo shorts. The baggy ones that hang well below the knee with the billowing pockets that, for some reason, are never filled with anything more than crushed bags of Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream potato chips.
