Movies catalogue and My Watch List
Browse popular films with runtime, genre, year, and platform filters on /movies. Save titles to a personal watch list stored on your device — track queue totals, mark films watched, and estimate days to finish your queue.
Actor and director profile headers
Actor and director detail pages now show a TMDB portrait beside the page title, with age, birthplace, citizenship, and notable awards listed below the description. Profile data is merged from TMDB and curated metadata for all 40 filmography pages.
Film poster carousel moved on actor and director pages
On actor and director pages, the auto-scrolling film poster carousel now sits below the total runtime stat cards and above the film table — keeping the profile header and quick-answer summary at the top.
Movie detail popup on guide pages
Click any recommended movie poster in SEO guide pages to open the same detail popup as the homepage calculator — poster, director, rating, year, runtime, genres, and where-to-watch with streaming countries inline.

Movie detail popup on the homepage calculator
Click any recommended movie poster under “What to watch next” to open a detail popup. The layout shows the poster on the left and movie info on the right: title, director (from TMDB credits), rating, year, runtime, genres, and a full where-to-watch list with streaming countries shown inline. The calculator form also has a green accent border.
Film poster carousels on guide pages
Franchise, actor, director, TV series, watch-order, and streaming guide pages now show an auto-scrolling poster carousel above the page title. The carousel spans full viewport width on desktop and falls back to horizontal scroll when reduced motion is preferred.

TV series runtimes and marathon guides
Added season-by-season watch time for three long-running shows: The Walking Dead (~127 hours), Sex and the City (~49 hours including both films), and The Middle (~79 hours). Each series has a runtime page plus a marathon binge guide.
10 new actor filmography pages
New watch-time guides for Keanu Reeves, Harrison Ford, Johnny Depp, Hugh Jackman, Chris Hemsworth, Ryan Reynolds, Matt Damon, Dwayne Johnson, Scarlett Johansson, and Arnold Schwarzenegger — each with a full film list, runtime totals, and links to related franchises like Matrix, Star Wars, MCU, and Terminator.
Search and discovery improvements
Updated page titles, descriptions, and quick-answer summaries across franchise and filmography pages so they better match common search queries. Added cross-links between related franchises, actors, and marathon guides. Site content now targets a US audience (en-US) with US streaming availability where shown.

Streaming availability
Franchise, director, and actor film tables now show where each movie is available to stream. Homepage recommendation cards include the same info below the year and runtime. Hover a platform name to see which countries list that title. Data comes from TMDB and JustWatch.
