Tubi Is Not the Next Netflix. It’s Something Better
WiredHere’s a fun tidbit to toss out at your next dinner party: Tubi is home to the biggest content library of all the streamers. Offerings span cult classics, ’90s heist movies, and everything in between—anime, Westerns, French New Wave, reality TV, popcorn horror. Tubi’s zero-restrictions approach to licensing has turned the streamer into “a bit of a social punching bag,” says Nicole Parlapiano, the platform’s chief marketing officer. Tubi has been called everything from the “Criterion Collection but for really bad movies” to a platform for “D-tier straight-to-DVD shit movies.” It has stagy revenge thrillers like Bottle Girls Gone Bad and an undercooked remake of the 1976 horror flick I Spit on Your Grave. “Tubi got some of the most toxic low-budget movies I’ve ever seen,” @slscolours posted on X recently.
