About

FilmSuggestions.com is a free service which allows you to catalogue your favourite films.

This service uses the Amazon.com database - while you browse Amazon DVD, you can easily add a film you are viewing to your collection of favourites here at FilmSuggestions.

When you've added a film to your collection, you can assign tags and comment on the entry. Your film collection is publically available, and you can search your collection by tags, actors, directors and title.

Why use FilmSuggestions.com?

  1. List your favourite films and compare with your friends
  2. Look at your friends collections to get suggestions for your next film to watch
  3. Catalogue your home film collection by tagging films you own with 'own'
  4. Keep a record of who you have lent films to by tagging with 'loanto:???'
  5. Tag your collection so you can easily find films with particular qualities - here are some suggested tags:
    • action, comedy, martialarts... (genre based)
    • 5*, 4*, 3* ... (rating)
    • own (films you own)
    • loanto:john (films you've lent to John)
    • mustsee, classic (films you think everyone should watch)
    • tosee (films you want to see)

About the Amazon database

We can only provide this service while Amazon allows us to use their database. There are limitations to what we are allowed to do, and our access to the database can be revoked at any time. Bear this in mind, and please understand that continued access to FilmSuggestions.com is subject to Amazons will.

How is this service provided for free?

It costs money to develop the application and host it on the internet. We hope that while using FilmSuggestions.com you'll come across films you want to buy from Amazon. By clicking on the title you'll be taken to Amazon and if you purchase that item we will get a small comission. This does not make it any more expensive for you.
