It was a phone number you could call to get movie showtimes. It was an automated call system. But I guess it integrated a bunch of data sources together well and had a decent phone-based user interface? This was a time where the internet wasn't quite prevalent enough to support the idea, but phones were. The idea of calling a phone number for up-to-date movie listings was kind of revolutionary at the time. There was a tech component but it wasn't a dot com and the whole thing is kind of laughable when viewed from today. It was popular enough to have a Seinfeld episode reference it.
