Tired of Figuring Out What to Watch?
Stick with me until the end and see what movie enthusiast, Brei Rodriguez’s recommendations are for the next time you are tired of figuring out what to watch.
When was the last time you sat down on the couch on a Friday night with your friends, family, or significant other to watch a movie and had no idea what to watch? For most people, this is a frequent issue where you are spending way too much time scrolling through Netflix trying to find something that looks the slightest bit entertaining. Rather than spending all this time trying to figure out what to watch, how much easier would it be if you had access to an app where you could see what your friends, family, or favorite celebrities are watching and recommending to you. There’s something about personalized recommendations from people you are close with that makes it so much easier to commit to watching a movie. With Entourage, this nightmare of wasting time trying to find a movie that is not a complete waste of your Friday night is gone. Now, you have the option to watch a movie that was recommended specifically for you by a friend, or you can spend a minute glancing through the home feed of personalized movie recommendations. We incorporate sophisticated Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the app that displays a percent chance that you will actually like a recommendation based on the movies, actors, and genres that you are passionate about. This feature helps you narrow down that giant list of options to movies that share similarities with your all-time favorites. When you discover and watch a personalized movie recommendation that becomes one of your new favorites, you can easily create a post about it and recommend it to your followers or just a select few friends that you think would really enjoy it. This simple yet meaningful action makes it so others can continue to discover and share the content they love.
Look at that, you made it to Brei’s movie recommendations. Great work!
