Show HN: Get an email when your favorite director releases a movie

  • Fun! I'd love if you provided groupings to make it easy to subscribe.

    E.g. _Directors who make great Film Noir_

    Obviously these are subjective but perhaps can be useful suggestions

  • That's fun ! I don't think i've ever needed something like this for major directors (usually you hear about the movie months in advance / see trailers), but it might be helpful for less famous ones.

    Edit: I tried with two french directors I like, and there weren't in the database (they are on TMDB though).

  • What a great project! I think it's wonderfully simple, and still very useful.

    One bug: pasting into the list doesn't seem to trigger the auto suggest menu until after a 2nd keystroke. So to add a director, I have to paste, and then hit the delete key, and then finally click their name.

  • This is great! Now I'll never miss another Alan Smithee film.

  • Awesome! Subscribed to a few great directors.

    But for some reason I cannot add Paul Verhoeven to the list. He's just not there.

  • Loved the idea, With everything so fast, I forget when & which movies release. This will help me stay up to date.

  • Wrong! Its Get an email when your favorite director adds their movie to imdb, without imdb this is toast!
