Most impressive. Well done. What I normally do in Chrome is highlight the text and then right-click 'Search Google For...' but this is way better. What happens if two or more movies have the same title?

not long to go now...

You'll get the more recent one. That's how the API works. You can specify the year in the request but that could prove problematic considering how the tool works and it would still be slower than using the link to go to imdb and doing it manually from there.

This is great! Very, very useful. Maybe it could incorporate a Can I Stream It? search.

Awesome. How do you close the pop-up once you're done?

Re: FIYH Quick movie info lookup

Really neat little tool!  A quick question just in case I'm missing something obvious.  Can you scroll within the pop-up window?  Whether it's my monitor or my failing eyesight or what, at the size I have the forum text at, the entire pop-up doesn't display.  (Alternatively, I assume there's no (easy) way to have the text in the pop-up be a different size from the main page text?)

I'm already imagining the fun I'll have selecting random bits of text from people's posts and seeing what the movie is (if any) that has that as a title.

For the next hour, everything in this post is strictly based on the available facts.

CISI shows all the places online that a movie is available to stream or rent. For this, just Netflix/Amazon would be good.

Re: FIYH Quick movie info lookup

Yeah, that's just downright amazing. If you could add a Netflix instant link to it, too, I'd love you forever tongue
