Microsoft is exiting the market for selling and renting TV and movies across its platforms. There was no reason given for the abrupt change, with Microsoft simply posting the news on a support page on its Xbox website. "Microsoft has stopped selling new movie and TV content.

You can longer rent or buy TV shows or movies, but you won’t lose any of your purchases. Microsoft has rather abruptly closed down its Movies & TV app, which is accessible on Xbox and Windows PCs via the Microsoft Store.

Despite a prior announcement suggesting a broad release, the feature is currently only supported on four devices, including the Chromecast models.

I was just an elementary school kid when I Know What You Did Last Summer first fell on my radar, and I was hooked (pun fully intended), even though it wasn’t until several years later that I actually watched the entire film. The 1997 movie plays out a bit like Scream without the self-aware humor, which makes sense considering that Kevin Williamson penned the screenplays for both movies. Despite its more straightforward slasher approach, the movie’s summer setting makes it a fun, warm-weather wat
