Cinemark-RSS

This is a command-line tool that reads any Cinemark theatre's movie listings, combines it with an unofficial Rotten Tomatoes API, and generates an RSS feed of the data.

I use it to keep updated on which movies are in my local theatre.

Usage

  • Visit cinemark.com and navigate to your theatre.
  • Find your theatre's numeric ID. One way to find it is to click the "Theatre Info" tab and check the email address (usually ###@cinemark.com).
  • node index.js $ID will spit out the RSS to the console.

Example Output

Transformers: The Last Knight

Cinemark XD / RealD 3D / Reserved Seating

RealD 3D / Reserved Seating
10:40am

Cinemark XD / Reserved Seating
12:30pm - 7:30pm

Digital Cinema / Reserved Seating
2:10pm - 5:40pm - 9:10pm

Rotten Tomatoes: 15% - Cacophonous, thinly plotted, and boasting state-of-the-art special effects, The Last Knight is pretty much what you'd expect from the fifth installment of the Transformers franchise.

Note

This is my first node.js script. It's not robust. It's not elegant. It could certainly be done better. But it works. Don't judge. :)
