Random Movie Generator v.02 (Beta)

1PM 9/16/09: Indexing 1970-1980 movies. Highly rated foreign films to come.

Can't pick a movie to watch? Let the generator pick one for you! Just specify the constraints, and let the wonders of pseudorandomness determine your fate!

To get another choice, simply refresh the results page or press backspace, then enter. The only movies currently indexed are American films from 1980 and later, from IMDB (incomplete). Rottentomatoes will be added soon.

Genre constraints take a few seconds to calculate. Everything else should be instantaneous.
