While looking at my Netflix queue, I noticed the words "Click for Update" under Availability for the movie Grind House. When I click it, I get these words:How can they not be able to purchase more copies? Have Tarantino and Rodriguez decided not to sell anymore? Answer: Not exactly. The reason: the movie was still in my Saved section...it hadn't even become available yet. Or maybe the Weinstein Company doesn't want the masses to see it. Anyone know the real answer?Grind House has been removed from your Queue. We no longer have enough copies of the DVD to satisfy customer demand. Unfortunately, we are unable to purchase more of this movie and will no longer offer it for rental.Update on Your Queue
We realize this is disappointing and want to reassure you that we remove movies from our web site only in unusual circumstances.
We apologize for the inconvenience and hope you find many other movies to enjoy at Netflix.
Update...Netflix just sent me an email:
As someone who added Grindhouse, we want to clarify some changes that were made to Your Queue. Grindhouse is available for rental as two movies: Grindhouse: Planet Terror and Grindhouse: Death Proof. As a result, Grindhouse was removed from Your Queue and replaced by Grindhouse: Planet Terror and Grindhouse: Death Proof.

It's been broken into two parts, Death Proof and Planet Terror. They're being released a month apart.
Netflix should have explained that in the notice.

Thanks Mike! It looks like they went right ahead and added both to my queue, too. That's what I get for having 348 movies in the queue...they got lost in the list!
