Labor Day kicks off the first week of September, which also happens to be a nearly full week of new arrivals on Netflix. The first day of the month fell on Sunday, and saw the addition of a couple dozen new movies. The momentum continued on Monday, as Netflix kicked off several straight days of additions, which include popular films, new TV shows, and live events.

One of the biggest additions for the week came at the start, in the form of a grudge match decades in the making. The day saw a new live event Chestnut vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef stream on Netflix. Hot dog eating champions Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi faced off in a one-on-one showdown. After streaming live, the competition was made immediately available on-demand for Netflix subscribers.

The end of the week will be big for movie fans with a Netflix subscription. On Friday, Netflix will release the new original film Rebel Ridge, which is the latest movie from director Jeremy Saulnier. One day later, Netflix will add the beloved Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt sci-fi action flick Edge of Tomorrow.
