Cinema Plugin - next version

kayak4ever: can you post a link to the Google Movies page for your local cinema(s)?

[kayak4ever]

the theatres I use are http://www.google.ca/movies?near=k1c2n3&...10b202b46d ; http://www.google.ca/movies?near=k1c2n3&...8344d2efe6 ; http://www.google.ca/movies?near=k1c2n3&...db5e94663f ; http://www.google.ca/movies?near=ottawa+...55cc3ee0d8 : http://www.google.ca/movies?near=ottawa+...a7e9ade15e

You will notice that the last two are considered "ottawa theatres" where the first set are the theatres near my postal code. Even though you could probably access the theatres from one listing, it may omit one of your favourite theatres. There are several ways to get your listings in North America (or at least Canada) and you live in a small city beside a bigger city (I live in Orleans, Ontario but it is also part of Ottawa.

The most precise is this http://www.google.ca/movies?sc=1&near=k1c+2n3 with your postal code.

If I want just my side of town, I can obtain the list http://www.google.ca/movies?sc=1&near=orleans+canada

or, I could have listed my city as Ottawa, recognizing the list will include theatres I am not interested in http://www.google.ca/movies?sc=1&near=ottawa+canada

I hope this helps and apologize for the delay in checking for news on GBpvr: I have been so busy watching, I haven't had time for improvements.
