I basically signed up due to the new Xbox 360 dash update and now need some help filling up my queue. I've seen a lot of movies. I worked at Blockbuster for a number of years while in college so I've seen a lot of older movies (from must-see classics through not-so-well-known indy films).

I like pretty much anything but am mainly looking for movies released within the last year or two. Fire away!

check out imdb top 200 movies list and pick ones you haven't seen yet

They won't be the newest movies, but they'll at least have a good chance of being enjoyable

Top xxx lists are a horrible idea, with my strategy, you can't be disappointed any worse than the last week. :p

Is there a way to peruse the "Watch it Now" listings without actually signing up for an account? I'd like to see just how diverse their streaming catalog is for recent titles and TV series.

I can't even figure out how to browse the Watch It Now listings and I'm a member.

I go to the watch it now tab, search for something, and it shows me a bunch of movies I can't watch online.

I noticed this last night as well. The good news is that 'watch it now' does indeed mean 'watch it now' because I never experienced any hiccups whatsoever.

In response to some previous posts, I tend to shy away from the top XXX lists. The reason for this is that I have seen so many movies and the ones I haven't seen probably came out in the last year or two. Most of my favorites are actually on the AFI Top 100 list. Give me classic Hitchcock any day. :)
