Warner Bros. Rolls Out Flixster Collections Video Service this Week

  • Time Warner CEO Jeff Bewkes announced the availability of Flixster Collections, a social movie portal that went into public beta this week.
  • The service, a revamped version of the Flixster product acquired earlier this year, encourages users to share what they’ve watched with friends.
  • If there’s something you want to see, for example, Flixster directs you back to Amazon, iTunes, Hulu and Netflix (as well as your hard drive, if you let it). There are also links for theatrical films, including reviews, trailers and ticketing services.
  • “You can also imagine how this will tie in to Ultraviolet, the cloud/locker system for video that Warner and a big coalition of movie studios and tech companies (except for Apple and Amazon) are pushing,” writes Peter Kafka in All Things D.
  • So far, Flixster Collections is available for PCs and Macs, but no mobile app yet.
