Movie Search by Google

Just in case you did not think that Google is the coolest shit on the planet, Google does itself one better:

Just in time for the Oscars, we’ve created a new “movie:” operator that enables you to find movie-related information faster and more easily, whether you’re looking for titles or actors, director or genre, famous lines or obscure plot details.

Yes, this is all info that you can get from IMDB but Google goes even a step further.

Looking for a multiplex near you? Use “movie:” followed by a U.S. zip code or city/state to find theaters and showtimes in your area (a search for [movie: Mountain View, CA], for example, will show you what’s playing near the Googleplex).

Of course all the search results also automatically link you to IMDB info, reviews and online ticket purchasing.
