This is an awesome little web app that I immediately bookmarked for later reference. On a side note, only on HackerNews could this interface draw praise.

#12How come "The Godfather" is a Horror movie?

#13Cool site. I love the simple interface. From a UX perspective, the header should be sticky when you scroll. I was having fun looking at the "moods" and genres that get highlighted when you hover over a movie, but after I scroll down, I can't see it anymore
Great feedback. I see I should do it this way.
Also include the column headers in the sticky part so that you can see those as you scroll too :)

#14once you scroll down, the whole information section becomes useless.

#15Very nice. Different but distinctive and useful design.
Row selection highlighting would help with navigation; I find myself getting a bit lost when parsing such long rows. I would also like to see a bit more info about how the site works.

So, please, for God's sake, use a . I hate all those javascript/CSS fancy tricks.
With s, you can press space/page down key to go to next page. Those stupid CSS tricks break this 35+ year-old tradition, and add literally zero benefit.

Yes, the interface became a little complicated. The previous version was more accessible for a casual user, for example the following article about the website was received pretty enthusiastically (retweeted about 1000 times)

I guess the right way to fix it is to hide some features and add a tutorial.

#18Way simple, yet charming. Loved the show-categories-on-hover feature, but it's impossible to see the categories when scrolled down.

#19I'm really impressed. The "recommender" system works really well.

#20How does the score works? 12 Angry Men has a 9.4 score and 7th place, but when I filter by "Law" movies the score goes down to 7.5.
Score is different in each of the 55 rankings. I do not know if this is clear in the interface, but "Law" is one of the rankings, not a filter.
