MovieQ is a web application that allows users to create and organize queues of movies they wish to watch. Users can search for their favorite films or explore new options by browsing through tens of thousands of movies that can be sorted by genre, rating, and year of release. A live version of the application can be found at kmurgic.github.io/movieq.
-
The “Discover” page helps users to explore a vast database of movies according to their preferences for genre, rating, and year of release - all of which can be controlled via the drop-down menus at the top of the page.
-
The “Search” page allows users to search for specific films by title. Search results yield exact matches as well as close matches.
-
From both the “Discover” and “Search” pages, users are able to add titles to any of their existing queues. When an attempt to add a movie to a queue is made, a message pops up to inform the user that the movie has either successfully been added to the queue or is already present in the selected queue. One movie cannot be added to the same queue twice.

The “My Queues” page is where users can create and edit their queues.

The [+] button next to the page title (“My Queues”) allows users to add new queues.
