HBO Now is starting the new year off on the right now by adding several great films to its streaming line up.

In The Big Lebowski, Jefff Lebowski, aka “the Dude”, is a down on his luck burnout, who coincidentally shares a name with a millionaire. Unfortunately for him, that millionaire’s wife owes a lot of money to some shady people. When he gets mistaken for the millionaire, Lebowski gets dragged into the underbelly of Los Angeles. The Big Lebowski will be available on HBO Now on Jan. 1.

The Blues Brothers also comes to HBO Now on Jan. 1. In this action comedy, Jake (John Belushi) and Elwood (Dan Akroyd) reunite their band in hope of saving the Catholic home where they grew up. They go on tour, but things get out of hand, and one of the movies’ greatest car chase scene ensues. This classic is loaded with stars and great musicians.
