Looks good. What is the chance that Netflix would ask GH to drop it, sue the developers, and etc?

Probably zero. It's just a SPA that grabs images from https://www.themoviedb.org. It doesn't actually do anything.

I don't think they have anything to worry about, anyway you can't spend all your life fearing lawyers.

I hope Hulu steals this, their new UI is really awful and they don't seem to comprehend no matter how many people tell them their UI is really awful.

It really is terrible! I always try to hold my tounge whenever the UI changes in an app, because it's usually just me not liking a "new" ui. But they have had this for months|years? now. if people are still saying your UI is bad after an extended period, then I think it's safe to trust them

This is just a project someone made to put in their portfolio, it's nothing serious.

i wondered about that too. Seems unlikely given its an experiemnt with no connection to video content. However, the legal system has amazed me before...
