Romero's "Dawn of the Dead" was clearly released in 1978, but searching for "Dawn Of The Dead (1978)" doesn't work on Movie Analyser or TMDB's site.

Need to find a better way of doing this.

Might be fun to display all of the movies in a user's collection at the end. Perhaps in a shelf format.

I've noticed in my own efforts with the TMDb API that titles with question marks just don't work; no results are returned.

Given the film "Getting Any? (1994)", the following happens...

Doesn't work with question mark:
http://movie-analyser.com/fetch.php?title=Getting%20Any?%20(1994)&setId=fake

Works without question mark:
http://movie-analyser.com/fetch.php?title=Getting%20Any%20(1994)&setId=fake

So, a hacky workaround is simply to strip question marks. Cheers!

In quite a few cases the numbers sit below the chart, and aren't particularly legible. Might be better to place the numbers above the bar in a higher contrast font.

The width of the bars over such a large range also means the horizontal alignment is off.

It'd be neat to integrate with Facebook, so that users with "Movies watched" specified can login to Facebook and automatically search for all of that list.

A proof of concept for this exists in master, but needs hooking up to the interface.

Entering many films at once into a text box is only really practical if you already have a list, and are just copy-and-pasting it. For those just trying it out, or creating a list as they go, it's probably more practical to have an auto-suggest feature (which will probably have to work from a text input rather than textarea).

A movie with 0 ratings on TMDB has a rating of 0/10. This means it's almost definitely always going to be "worst rated movie", which isn't necessarily correct.

Titles such as "The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec" are not recognised.
