If you use Facebook as your login service you have the ability to import movies the user has already liked giving them a headstart in selection process.

This is a good idea, but would be pretty difficult because we would have to match the facebook page with theMovieDB movie id.

If you have a good idea how to do that, then we definitely should do that :)

Facebook gives you the movie year, that along with the title would allow you to probably uniquely identifies 99.9% of movies through the TMDB search api. You'd probably want to build a local cache for performance.
