Netflix's New Year's resolution for 2019 must have been: more.
In January, the streaming giant offers more variety for kids and families.
Movies such as "Ant-Man and the Wasp," and "The Incredibles 2" are ideal for family movie night.
All four "Indiana Jones" movies roll out in January, as does "The Dark Knight". Both are perfect for older kids.
Animated shows also are part of the mix, including "Happy Feet," "Hotel Transylvania 3" and a new series about a chipper hot dog called "Pinky Malinky."
