I’m suggesting the ability to resume collection playback from wherever it has been left off. My thinking is this - Using the main collection “Play” button, I would like the option to “resume” playback from the next available video in the collection.
For example, if I have completely watched 5 movies in a collection, should I choose to resume, I should start with the 6th video. If I am partway through the 5th movie, I should resume exactly where I left off there.
If all movies are marked as watched/unwatched, this additional selection could be skipped.
This is useful to me because by default, even though the next movie in a collection will auto-play if you select any individual movie, you do not have skip functionality enabled to go past the credits and immediately start it (at least on Android). I suppose if this skip option was available every time then it would be sufficient to just have that rather than the new resuming logic.

If I were new to the On Deck feature, just guessing at how it works, I would expect to see Anchorman 2 appear there right after completing Anchorman 1. This would also be a time-saver for movies in collections which are not explicitly ordered in the title. Watching the Bond movies in order practically requires a Wikipedia check each time, Harry Potter and the TNG Star Trek movies …
