    If you use the topic in the url it's better for seo. I like moviesfree.ws

    If you are wanting to brand the site, I think hubbed.com is the only one of the three that works. If you aren't worried about branding, go for moviesfree.

    Moviesfree would be better for search engines but hubbed is better for off line advertising.

    I agree, I like hubbed.com if you are branding. But I honestly don't like websites that are .ws

    Take a note from the big guys, and go with something brandable. If you can get brandable plus keyword rich, more power to you. If you have to choose, choose something for better branding (unless you're running some kind of MFA-style site where you really only care about short-term traffic and ad rev instead of building a reputation for your company).

    Hubbed.com seems brandable and in looking up the word hubbed on google I see it shows like #4 for hubbed.com through stumbleupon...seems an advantage for a start. Single word brand seems to do well in this industry...IMO

    I like hubbed the best out of those. the .com still rules in my opinion, unless you have a really good name and use .net or .ws, .tv etc...

    Definitely hubbed.com.
    It's brad able, memorable, and it's a .com
    moviesfree.ws has your genre in the title, but it sounds cheap.
    Now, quick go get it before a domain name sampler takes it.

    Umm......all of these domain names are already taken. Do you own them or did you buy them all? Well, for now, I'll assume that you're planning to purchase them from the owner. If so, I'd go with Hubbed.com, the rest, not so good.

    hubbed.com would be my choice.
    Just like PhoenixDaily says it's brandable and I think it's easier to remember.

    My money would be on moviesfree.ws since its name will likely rank it high in the search engines.

    3/4 of my commissions are reserved from hostican. 2 of them are cancelled and another one went to another affiliate. So Im not quite sure whether its a good product to promote.
