About this picker
One press, one pick worth watching
This picker covers the eighties and everything before: the blockbuster decade, the teen comedies, and the older classics that still earn their reputation, so a random 80s movie here sometimes arrives with a friend from 1974. Add Funny for the comedies, Intense for the thrillers, or turn on Skip black and white if you want color only.
Every pick links to a page with where it streams, ratings from IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, and Metacritic, the trailer, and the cast. The full random movie picker lets you mix any genre, mood, and decade, the What to watch quiz turns six questions into a ranked lineup, and the binge calculator tells you how long a series will take. Limelight itself is a free download for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
