    The absence of obvious, current movies like I Love You, Man and Monsters vs. Aliens from Jinni doesn’t seem to bode well.

    Thanks for the feedback, A. This is temporary, as we’ve focused on adding depth to our catalog rather than new releases. We know current movies are important, though, and Jinni will be fully up-to-date within a couple weeks (or less).
