Before I list those channels though I'll point out that the official YouTube Movies Channel licenses out hundreds of movies that you can watch. After monitoring these over time I've noticed that the movies on the YouTube Movies channel change quite quickly, so if you find something you really want to watch for free it's best to watch it ASAP. And the more popular the movie, the more likely it will disappear soon due to rights changing. But new movies are always being added to the YouTube Movies channel usually at the beginning of each month. One other thing I'll point out about the YouTube Movies channel is that the movie rights are usually territorial. So for instance the movie might only be playable in the United States. With that said here is a playlist of hundreds of the latest free movies from the official YouTube Movies channel:
