old thread, some good discussions on page 2? regarding on what to include as far as tv goes...

^ That's so funny to read now.

Redstone got a blog.

Well, Taylor Swift would tell you that the haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate.

Way to make like a horse and shake it off.

Not sure if any of you listen to the AMC Movie Talk series, but today they had a segment on the "reports" of the BVS trailer premiering with Jupiter Ascending and they actually pull up the site and talk about it. I think they have a pretty solid following that could drive some more traffic.

Damn man, you got tweeted by Duncan Jones!

Holy sh*t. I was literally sitting at my desk a month ago, probably in my underwear, when I thought, "Hey, maybe the Batman v Superman trailer will premiere with Jupiter Ascending. They're both Warner Bros., the timing's about right, so why not?" And now, THIS...

you're big time, buddy!

Ha, yeah, that was crazy! What are the chances that A) he'd happen to even ask that question two days after the launch, and that B) some dude would immediately respond suggesting my site?

TC, are you able to see how many clicks you've gotten since the launch? Very curious to hear those numbers if you don't mind sharing that type of data.

I will definitely be using this site!!

Current traffic stats as of now, since Wednesday morning's launch, posted below. To be honest, I thought the amount of social media buzz would result in far more hits than this. A guy with 800K+ Twitter followers tweeted the link, at least 15 or so people with 20K+ followers tweeted the link, and dozens of accounts with 1000+ followers tweeted the link. Not to mention the four or five articles written about the site, and now that AMC thing, which has 20K+ views so far. The site definitely made the impact I wanted it to, and the buzz/praise is far more than I ever expected, but that said, frankly, I figured that kind of exposure would equal more hits. I'm still over the moon excited/satisfied, though, and it's only going to catch on more. The user base is definitely there, the brand has been established, and that's all I really care about at this point.

Just checked, and the most encouraging number is that 24.9% of all hits have been direct. Meaning people didn't click on a referred link. They either typed the url in themselves, or are coming from a bookmark in their browser. In other words, a lot of returning customers in the 48 hours or so of the site's existence...

Hot damn, that AMC link.


We are all Redstone guys. We knew about the Projection List before it was mainstream

Very cool.

Seeing that AMC video talking about the site and even showing a picture of it, almost made me feel like I saw someone I know on TV. That is awesome. The site is two freaking days old.

Outstanding site! Just followed and sent links to friends. Great potential here.

Question - I can't see the imdb link column on my iPad or iPhone - just the trailer link (unless there isn't a trailer, then the imdb link is there). Is that a glitch on my end or can you later update the mobile site so an imdb link appears for every film?

Thanks!

For whatever reason, the designers didn't want to put both the trailer link column AND the IMDb link column on the mobile version. I think it might potentially be too much info to load for mobile? I'm not sure. As of now, an IMDB link appears ONLY if there's no trailer link, but I'm going to ask them to change it in the next version. I definitely want both, if not all three (RT as well).

Ha. It doesn't make sense. I still can't get over that.

The upcoming trailer feature is amazing, absolutely amazing.

I didn't even know that this information existed until your site launched. I'm convinced you are a wizard or from the future.

Ha, thank you! But please understand they're just GUESSES. As the disclaimer up top says, and the word "Projected" by the dates indicates, they're just speculation on my part.

wizard status confirmed

I feel like such a hipster.

Please explain why the site can't adapt to portrait on mobile? Making the user rotate their device is pretty lame.

Yeah, it's a giant pain in the ass to twist my hand 90 degrees... Matter of fact, why do I have to go to the website at all? Just tell me the information once a week. Thanks for nothing...

My apologies. I have set up a new account, and from now on will instead be individually calling all users of The Projection List once a week to read aloud the current releases. If it is too much work to lift the phone to your ear, however, our new ESP service - where listings will be telepathically beamed to your brain - is in the beta stage and looking for testers. To sign up, simply send us an email with "Lazy Son of a B*tch" in the subject line. We also appreciate any condescending remarks, along with a general attitude of entitlement in regards to services provided at absolutely no cost to the user.

In the meantime, if you see 1-800-ARE-YOU-KIDDING-ME come up on your caller ID, that's us. No need to screen the call. For a limited time, because we understand how taxing actually picking up your phone or sending an email can be, ask for the "Jock92" and I will personally drive to your home, take you to the theater, pay for your ticket, and watch the movie with you, all free of charge.*

Thank you for your continued business and understanding.

Seriously, though, as I've mentioned before, the listings would not only have to be TINY in portrait view, but the trailer/IMDb icons would be too small to click as well. And if we could keep the current font size, the arrangement in portrait view would be FAR too cramped and everything would bleed over.

Do you think we wanted to make the user rotate their device? Do you not think we tried and tested every conceivable option and came to the conclusion we did based literally on months of testing? Trust me, I don't like it any more than you do, but it's just the nature of a site like this.
