Popcorn Ready Extension

Popcorn Ready is a Chrome extension designed for Kaleidescape users to provide alternative ways to view and search your movie library featuring enhanced data from The Movie Database (TMDB).

You can view, filter, search and sort your movie library either by clicking the Popcorn Ready chrome extension icon or by going to the My Movies page on the Kaleidescape Movie Store, where a content script will add a Popcorn Ready tab in the existing page. Click any movie title on the Popcorn Ready tab to open a recommendations tab that will have the top 5 recommendations provided by TMDB that are available on the Kaleidescape movie store. If you don't already own one of the recommendations, then that title will be a hyperlink to that movie on the Kaleidescape movie store.

Have too many movies, but can't decide what to watch? While in the Popcorn Ready tab you can get between 1-9 random movies to choose from.

Want a random movie from a more familiar user interface? Then navigate to your local Kaleidescape system at http://my-kaleidescape.local/movies where a content script will add a Popcorn Ready button right in that user interface that will choose a random movie and click it to bring up the details.

Another content script will add a Kaleidescape logo next to any title on an IMDB movie page if that title is available on the Kaleidescape movie store. Click the logo to goto the movie page on Kaleidescape.
