I took my side-project too seriously and ended up with the biggest analysis of title drops in movies:

@dominikus really nice story and beautiful visuals. I love the way you did the annotations.

I went through the piece a second time (still amazing) and stumbled across two dead/undefined links in the sentence "movies like E or I", where both movies are "undefined". Just in case you feel like going back into codebase just once more 😜

@seblammers Amazing, thanks so much for letting me know! Just added the links so everyone can bask in the glory that is 'E' (2006) and 'I' (2015) 😄

@dominikus this is awesome, impressive work! 🤯

I'm not sure “It” really qualifies for top 10 fiction movies though, most “it” in dialogs don't really refer to the title/name… 🤡 😁

@nhoizey Yes, I had to make some tough decisions when it came to what constitutes a title drop and what not... in 'It's case I was aware that characters probably tend to mean the third person pronoun and not the clown but I decided to stick to the rules as I had defined them. And who knows - maybe Stephen King was actually talking about the pronoun the whole time 😉

@dominikus maybe! 😅

@dominikus This is truly amazing work, the kind of thing I wish I'd thought of myself.

Well done 👏

@dominikus Very nice! I was just thinking about this for songs (your next side-project..?)

By the way, these look like Psycho reviews:

@hugovk After doing this I need a break before doing anything similar I'm afraid 😄

But thanks for finding the problems with Psycho, will fix them asap!

@dominikus Did you know about Penn Jillette's Movie Night?

'Movie Night is full of mandatory hand gestures, goofy code words, and inside jokes. ... Whenever the title of another film was mentioned in the dialogue (as in, ”I don’t want to be home alone tonight”), everybody whispered, ”Wow.” When the film showed an establishing shot of a city, any city, the group muttered, ”Chicago.”'
