Why deciding is harder than it should be
Weekends are when you finally have time for that film you've been saving, the series everyone keeps recommending, or the director's entire filmography. Matinee helps you plan your weekend watching with a ranked list of your most wanted titles, filtered by what's available to you.
Who this is for
Anyone who wants to make the most of weekend viewing time instead of spending the first hour deciding what to watch.
How Matinee helps
Matinee's Watchlist Optimizer is designed for exactly this: surface the most anticipated title from your watchlist for when you have time to watch. Weekend mode means longer runtime options, series pilots, and ambitious films.
