Even if it was just basic trivia it would be helpful (Year of release, director, etc.). I think the biggest problem is that it's very easy to simply just not have seen a movie and no amount of screenshots will help guess that. But you

I'm from England (North East) and we also tend to use "like" when it doesn't make total sense, but mostly in speech and not in writing. It's used as a bit of a filler word ("There were, like, a lot of people, l

Nice project. For the Typography Measures[1] you have the values set to em's. Is there a reason for using em over ch? e.g. --measure-narrow: 20em; --measure-narrow: 45ch; [1]: https://www.pollen.style/modules/typo
