This site is a multi-function movie search/collection management solution for the avid movie watchers amongst us. It will have a page to search for movies, as well as the ability to add the movies to your own collection, or just view the IMDB information about the movie. In addition, it will have the ability to generate a random movie from your collection, as a "What to Watch" function.
It will utilize HTML and CSS along with Bootstrap to build the UI of the site. In addition, it will use jQuery and javascript to execute the movie search. During the search, it will communicate with the OMDB API to pull the movie data. Once you select to add the movie to your collection, it will create a localStorage database containing each of the movies that you add. The localStorage object will start with a few "Best Picks by Mike" movies inside it. Also, the "My Collection" page will list the movies from localStorage and display the movie poster, along with some basic information on each.
The ability to search for movies from OMDB, either by specific title, or by a list of multiple movies that match the searched keyword in their titles.
The ability to add a searched movie to your collection, to be stored for later use as well as populating the array that the random movie generator pulls data from to tell you what to watch.
The ability to randomly generate a movie from your stored collection (localStorage). Potentially use the Netflix API to generate a random movie that is currently available on Netflix.
The ability to implement another search that, when searching for a movie title on the OMDB API, it also searches youtube for an official trailer for the selected movie. This would be a feature on the search page.
