Last year I wrote a website for myself (https://medium.com/@mubashariqba...) to track movies that were coming out. I was tired of the junk on most movie sites that made it really difficult to track what movies were being released. A few other people expressed an interest in using the website, so I decided to open it up to everyone. Since I have an interest in automation (https://willrobotstakemyjob.com/) I wanted to see if I could fully automate the operation of the website. I think I've managed to do this. The content is collected via API, website changes are shared to social media, and emails are delivered weekly to newsletter subscribers all automatically. I wrote more about how I did this here: https://medium.com/makesideproje...

Great launch @mubashariqbal! Even though I'm not a big movie-goer in theaters, I always find myself missing when things are released thereafter. I could certainly see using something like this to keep an eye on movies that pique my interest and make a notation to see. I actually used to used something like this (I think it was called SideReel) to keep track of new TV episodes in college. These trackers are way underrated -- in an age where we're inundated with media to consume, sometimes a simple, useful tool like this beats out all the other more complicated user experiences. Awesome job!

@adammarx13 Thanks Adam. Feel the same way, and keeping things simple and uncluttered is very important for me.

@mubashariqbal Absolutely man. Also, we should get on another call sometime soon. I'll ping you!

Nice idea! Any plans to make it available for countries other than the US?

@shylands Thanks Steven. If there is any interest the plan is to deploy different instances of the website with a different TLD that would focus on other locations. To meet the mission of simplicity and easy of use, I wanted to avoid cluttering the site with different countries, etc.

@mubashariqbal is it possible to have push notification?

@_manishshahi_ Push notifications are hard because of the timing, and by that I mean when do I send the push notification for a release? If a movie came out today would the push notification come at midnight, or some other time thru the day? Will think on this more though.

@mubashariqbal I think the best approach would be to send notification whenever a new movie is added or before or after the entry.

@_manishshahi_ Unfortunately movies get added to the database months before they are released, and often with little information. Sending push notification then would be very premature. Push notifications for trailers, would be cool though.
