Re: Netflix queue + Rotten Tomatoes = A Better Queue
#2very cool i really dig it. one suggestion, the slider makes it a bit difficult to find recent releases, once you slide past 2005 or so you can't really easily adjust it.
even still, this is a great way to view movies - nice work!

#3= rotten queue? j/k, great job! 2 things:
I would enhance the 2nd bar to make one handle be able to push the other when they meet instead of getting stuck.
Does Tomatoes not rate animes much? Filtering from '95 to today of 50%+ only returned 3.

Re: Netflix queue + Rotten Tomatoes = A Better Queue

Rotten Tomatoes focuses exclusively on English language reviews from "approved critics"(http://www.rottentomatoes.com/help_desk/critics.php ), so it's not that much of a surprise that there aren't that many Japanese anime films rated there. Since the 90's, the only major theatrical releases in the US have been Studio Ghibli films, and that's because Disney handles the US distribution.
I would imagine that it's similar for the vast majority of foreign films as well.

#8I wish Netflix UK had an API. It looks like we are not getting one. There doesn't even seem to be a way to get a list of the current films available, and the new ones which appear.

Pretty sure that's the ONLY thing it shows. Tagline at the top specifically says "Netflix instant movies".
