Show HN: I built a movie-recommending app that eliminates the pain of choosing

I've not liked the search for that one movie to watch. Even worse I've not liked these recommendation services not being specific enough.

Maybe they can't be exact, but they can be closer.

So I made MoodieMoovy to change this. It asks for not only your mood, but also the time of day and day of the week, along with AI to give you a selection of movies that you would more likely watch right now.

If you need something to watch, come try out MoodieMoovy, hopefully it works for you.

Thank you!

The layout doesn’t work well on the iPhone 13 mini. The form is too wide for portrait, and when I rotate my screen and tap the keyboard comes up and I can’t see much of anything. After dismissing the keyboard I need to scroll a bit, but the dropdown menus seem to get wonky when I scroll if they are open.

I like the idea though. The first recommendation is gave me for a relaxing Sunday afternoon is a movie I have enjoyed watching on a relaxing Sunday afternoon in the past.

Another recommend it gave seemed to be a foreign language film subtitled in English. Having a setting to only be in a user’s native language would be good. Subtitles are fine sometimes, but depending on my mood or if I’ll be doing something else while watching, I want the option to just listen and not read the whole time.

This needs to know what services I have access to before it makes a suggestion at the very least.

If you have any questions or pieces of feedback feel free to share!
