  That's an interesting question. I don't think OUYA has officially said they would have film, but it's probably best someone from OUYA answers this.

  They could easily release it under the App section as long as the OUYA team allows it.

  Aggro Tactics - A tactical strategy virtual board game built with Unity3D 4.0, designed around the concept of Threat/Aggro inspired by the mechanics of chess and a customizable party like in table top games.

  @GodlyPerfection - But it is not an application which it the problem... My friends are making a 210 minute long movie.

  Except they could make a simple application that plays the movie. No proprietary software, just the movie and simple controls to play, pause, rewind, etc.
  
  Other than that, then they would probably need to wait for a third party to create an application that supports indie film makers uploading their own creations. I doubt that the OUYA will ever support movies on a dedicated level. Their time and efforts belong to the indie gamers/developers.

  @GodlyPerfection - you have a point with the software bit behind the movie bit.

  An android webview could easily play html5 streaming video from youtube or your server.
