Netflix adds people search to Xbox 360 app

4.1
Netflix recently announced that its people search feature has landed on Xbox 360. The searching method, which is already included in the PS3 Netflix app, includes actors and directors among its search results. It's especially useful if you like having Julia Roberts movie marathons (and really, who doesn't?). People search also works with Kinect, but good luck getting the system to understand "M. Night Shyamalan."

Also, we discovered that "Tommy Wiseau" does not turn up any results using people search. You're tearing him apart, Netflix.

I have to say this is a great feature I usually forget the names of movies I want to watch but knows who is in it.

Now that would be really helpful

I hate not being able to preview the movie! You start something that the cover looks good next thing you know your stopping it because it's dumb and looking for something else!

I know, this actually happens to me quite a lot, if it's boring I tend to just fall asleep.
