Login with Twitter doesn't work. After authorizing on Twitter.com, the "Please sign in" modal just stays there.
Wow, after playing with it for 60 seconds my wife and I found a Humphrey Bogart movie we had never heard of that we are now going to watch. You should work on adding Amazon video links to it with a referral code, could be a good way to capitalize on this!
Seconded! Love, love, love the way you've setup filters. The wife and I are big movie and tv bingers (hate that word but that's the label I guess). This is terrific and we've already found 5 movies that look exciting. Amazon and Hulu links will be awesome! Netflix doesn't realize what the creativity they'll be stifling by shutting off their API. Great job!!!
This is pretty sweet, but wish there was a way to filter to show movies available on netflix.
+1. I can't believe that still doesn't exist on the web. I have Hulu Plus, Netflix, and Amazon Prime accounts, but nothing will answer for me "Can I watch this movie for free somewhere?". Filtering by streaming service is a killer feature.
Edit: Sure enough, as soon as I posted this I came across an article saying that Tivo will be getting Amazon Prime this fall, as well as Vudu. http://zatznotfunny.com/2014-08/amazon-instant-vudu-coming-t...

Came to request the same! Just curious, what's the stack and how long did it take you to build this? I love the look and feel... I am having some issues with signing in though. Twitter and Facebook oauth doesn't seem to be working.
The stack is backend: Postgre/Unicorn/RoR frontend: SCSS/CoffeeScript/jQuery (no css/js frameworks) We've been working on this for the past couple of months in our spare time. TBH I have no idea how many hours it took. The login was broken for some users, we think it's fixed now but were not sure...it's hard to reproduce the error. Please tell us if it's working now!
It's pretty impressive that you guys hand-rolled the front-end, any reason why you didn't go w/ bootstrap or similar since it's supposed to save you time? (at least on paper) Personally that's what I tend to do myself but just curious.
For Netflix I have built, www.flicksery.com to solve my own problem of searching for good movies. Unfortunately the API is going to shut down soon. :(

Had seen an app demo from a Melbourne based company who does most of this and had an Amazon link. Haven't dived deep in as it was a UX testing session. Should I mention the name/link, not sure of the ethics of it when someone does a Show HN.
I like that it works on mobile too, but why does the page need to be reloaded when I resize the browser width? upon resizing, I lost my scroll position and I noticed the text all became red at tablet-ish width.
