Cinemur.fr : a french HTML5 web app for movies

[lordlarm]

Je ne comprends pas deux choses: quel est le prix? et pourquoi avez-vous besoin d'avoir Facebook?

What is the price and why do you have to have Facebook?

[troebr]

It says that facebook is to "see your friends' activity". It's probably just a way to promote the application via facebook, as there's no real benefit.

There's no price, it's to show the movies currently showing in cinemas, and the hours at the bottom.

The layout is nice but my browser seems to struggle a bit.

It's a free service and it uses Facebook Connect to access the user's graph (friends, movies and other interests) in order to build recommandations.

@mikado & others: I'm curious how cinemur got started, especially investing-wise. I see it has a 963 808 € capital, and yet the websites seems to have appeared out of nowhere.

I thought Allociné was in pretty good standing with cinemas, film distributors, etc. How did you pull that one off?

Anyway, good job!

Looks great, p.s. you seem to miss a favicon? I got the default one.

[mikado]

That's right, we are adding it. Thanks for the feedback!

Quite nice. Two bugs however:

In the "séances" view, if I choose my city, then change the day to mardi, it goes back to Paris.

Also with the "Aujourd'hui à la TV" bezel, there seems to be a button that adds the broadcaster and hour. Unfortunately, it is invisible.

Thanks, we're looking at this right now!

For non-french, Cinemur seems to be a "modern" alternative to the old and messy allocine.fr, the french goto site for finding movies and booking seats. I don't see a way to do that, booking tickets. Is it planned?

Beau design en tout cas.

[mikado]

Cinémur only shows trailers, not full movies. The Dailymotion player uses Flash since you have it installed, but it falls back to HTML5 if you don't.

Would be nice to have this in Montreal. We do have http://www.cinemamontreal.com/eng but it's not as beautiful :(

[Wilya]

It's beautiful.

My browser struggles to scroll the wall of posters, but other than that, it could be very nice.

[cypriend]

Nice interface. It will replace allocine in my habits Would be perfect with tv shows and public profile page.

[mikado]

thanks for the suggestion, we'll try to add them asap.

[antoinec]

It's really nice, just add a (free and illegal) streaming service of these movies and it will be perfect :)

[hokkos]

Il faudrait ajouter un filtre de cinémas pour les cartes d'abonnement UGC/MK2, Gaumont/Pathé,...

[mikado]

Little workaround for this: do a search for your theaters & add them to your favorites.

[regisb]

Great, useful app! I don't buy the mandatory Facebook integration though.

[terhechte]

Where does the content come from? Is it legal?

[mikado]

Yep it's legal, we're working with film distributors.

looks beautiful - great work on the design. was it a large dev / design team ? 6 months work ?

[czzarr]

i don't get what I'm supposed to be doing with this app?
