I'm an avid movie watcher. I like the idea of getting specialized suggestions in a way that is more familiar/easily tailored than my current methods: blockbuster & netflix ratings. However, for new releases, my best bet is fan buzz through Fandango. My question: Is there a way to smartly aggregate some of these sources and tie in with a facebook API? Or maybe to link up with fandango or groupon to facilitate a commercial revenue model? Or API with facebook and foursquare so that when people check in it automatically allows them to rate movies and let their friends know. A further step would be allowing the most active users to be 'followed' by those interested in movie reviews by a group with similar tastes but is not interested in maintaining their own group. - Random Ideas. I hope you find some of this constructive.

Awesome! I made this app cause I always feel a need of knowing which movie to watch next. So instead of asking my friends every time I meet them about the movies they have recently watched, I thought this would be a better idea. One of the things that I realized was that I value recommendations of only a small group of people. Someone may have liked a movie that I also do, but that does not mean I can trust their recos. Hence, a model which lets me actively add people to my list of recommenders. I would certainly keep improving the app and integrate it with other useful services. Thanks a lot for the feedback. I appreciate it.
