An App for maintaining a "Wanna Watch" movie list

12 points by Shrihari ↗ HN
I'm in the process of building this social web app that lets you maintain "Wanna Watch" movie list and discover new movies via friends.

Kindly help me by sparing a minute to take this survey : http://polldaddy.com/s/DB8919ED6D08FEA4

Don't listen to this guy. Create your web app.

It really needs an iPhone app, so when I'm at the movies and see a really cool trailer I can add it to the list. The app needs to be ultra smooth though.

Actually, I am developing similar application. I think we should have a discussion about it and join the forces if feasible.

The last question was interesting.:)I am assuming the monetization strategy is to provide links to amazon/itunes as referrals.

Kidding aside, a simple app would be great. Having lots of unnecessary feature would turn me off though.

Love the questions. I really think this could a more useful app if it fulfilled both sides of the equation: let me enter movies I want to see, and remind me of when those movies are in theaters near me/released on DVD or Blu-ray.

I don't see the social aspect as really playing much of a role, at least outside the 1% of hardcore die-hard users.

Thanks for the responses guys. The survey has helped me understand various aspects of the app. Somethings that i never thought about in the first place, have become priorities now..
