Lazy Day

Thanks for the Hunt @arunpattnaik. This is the original Reddit thread from 10 months ago: http://goo.gl/lkz0DZ and HN thread: http://goo.gl/Fh7eot from yesterday. The app is a bit buggy because I haven't touched it much since I released it last year to the r/movies reddit community due to lack of resources (mostly financial/time) I've had to put app dev on hold. Signup isn't working fully yet and you may notice some broken trailers/links, movie dataset is not up to date. It's goes to 2014. I built this [Django] app over the course of two years, and the concept is somewhat inspired by the Pandora app, but applied to movies, not music. The only question I kept asking myself when building it was "What movie do I want to watch?" although I noticed I was happy with just sitting in front of it watching trailers for an hour or two when I wanted a distraction from my day to day. I built this originally in Swift as a mac app to help me find something to watch on Netflix because I was disappointed with how Netflix solved this problem. Netflix then famously shutdown its API access. I gave up on Netflix and expanded LazyDay to include all (mostly Hollywood produced) movies, as data on this dataset is widely available online. I have been posting to different channels about LazyDay recently to try and find help - dev resources and/or financial - to continue developing it out. I was considering something like kickstarter. I initially built this app for myself because I was frustrated with all the currently available ways to find a movie to watch. Most apps present you with a grid with 100s of selections to choose from and put the cover art front and center. I wanted to focus on one movie selection at a time and make the movie trailer front and center. It's more of a key decider on whether or not I want to watch a particular movie. I hope to continue developing it out.

Lazyday lets you find movies based on keywords or themes.

An awesome way to find the movie you want to watch without having to do much at all
