Show HN: Get an email when your favorite director releases a movie
- luxurytent 6y agoFun! I'd love if you provided groupings to make it easy to subscribe. E.g. _Directors who make great Film Noir_ Obviously these are subjective but perhaps can be useful suggestions
- samteeeee 6y agoI do believe that is possible with the TMDb API. I'll see if I can add that feature at some point.
- T3RMINATED 6y agoWrong! Its Get an email when your favorite director adds their movie to imdb, without imdb this is toast!
- nradov 6y agoThis is great! Now I'll never miss another Alan Smithee film.
- vassilevsky 6y agoAwesome! Subscribed to a few great directors. But for some reason I cannot add Paul Verhoeven to the list. He's just not there.
- computerfriend 6y agoI was going to add him and David Cronenberg -- both oddly missing.
- samteeeee 6y agoCronenberg has now been added, thanks for the heads up!
- samteeeee 6y agoThe legendary Paul Verhoeven has now been added, thanks!
- elcomet 6y agoThat's fun ! I don't think i've ever needed something like this for major directors (usually you hear about the movie months in advance / see trailers), but it might be helpful for less famous ones. Edit: I tried with two french directors I like, and there weren't in the database (they are on TMDB though).
- Reubend 6y agoWhat a great project! I think it's wonderfully simple, and still very useful. One bug: pasting into the list doesn't seem to trigger the auto suggest menu until after a 2nd keystroke. So to add a director, I have to paste, and then hit the delete key, and then finally click their name.
- samteeeee 6y agoGlad you like it! Thanks for the note about pasting issues. I can see the author of the tagging lib that I used is working on a fix for that: https://github.com/yairEO/tagify/issues/535 https://github.com/yairEO/tagify/issues/535
- appleraju 6y agoLoved the idea, With everything so fast, I forget when & which movies release. This will help me stay up to date.
