Sounds like a forum or something like it? Maybe?

No, not even in the ballpark. I'm not trying to be coy at all, I just want everything done before I explain. And again, the site aspect has almost nothing to do with it. It's just a super-simple landing page for the venture itself. That's all.

Speak of the devil. Just heard back from the web designer and we're good to go. Will have a post up at some point before I go to bed tonight...

^ Sony Singapore tweeted that date out. But no other Sony outlet has confirmed. Still, it's an official source, so I'm going with it for now.

The Atlantic article is up!

It's not super extensive or anything, but the entire piece is solely about The Projection List, which is pretty cool

TC, for your next release (or a few after that):

http://www.omdbapi.com/
http://developer.rottentomatoes.com/docs

No need to keep more data on your site, you can just make calls to the other sources to retrieve data like plot, actors, directors, etc.

Just saw that! Wasn't expecting the main site/account to tweet a link to the story as well. Just went out to almost a million followers...

Ha, I tried! Tried to mention both Oil & Cattle and TexAgs, but there wasn't and organic way to do it.

I posted the article on Reddit for the hell of it from my "fake" account. Give it some upvotes if you guys get the chance, but I'm not expecting much from it...

You should do movie posters as well. I freaking love movie posters.

Movie Poster Release date?

Nah man, just the posters when they come out.

Something like this, but with posters:


In my head, you can click on an icon and enlarge it like Imgur. Maybe an effect where the icons shrink a tad why you mouse over them to make kind of a ripple effect.

I dunno, I'm an idiot. I just like movie posters.

I'd love that.

Do you have a Mac? Ever seen the Itunes library screensaver?






If you click on one of the individual pieces of art, it'll play the song in Itunes. It would be cool to have something similar that would take you to that movie's IMDB page... or better yet, its Projection List one.

I'm a mac luddite, sadly, and have never seen that. But it's exactly what I'm picturing.
TCTTS

Sh*t.

That's a hell of an idea. So, basically, presented in the order they're released? The latest poster always in the top left, the second latest one to the right of that, etc., in grid form?

Touching or no touching (insert Arrested Development gif here)? Like the library screensaver SP posted, or the Indieheads Essentials above it? I kind of like them touching, but I'm not quite sure.

Leave any notes and I may try do a quick mock-up...
