AMC Calendar

I looked a bit into the amctheatres.com’s request URLs and described their basic structure

I set up Poetry for python package and env management (including Jupyter notebooks) and started experimenting with fetching AMC’s showtime pages. Here’s what I found:

1. You can’t request a showtimes page by itself. It will ask for a theater location.
2. After peeking around in dev tools on the showtimes page, I found that it actually sends a request to the server with a theater set in the url!
3. There is also a page on AMC to view showtimes for ALL movies, which I could theoretically use later to create a calendar for any movie, instead of just for one specific movie’s showtimes.
   Still much work to do, but I’m getting there! 👍

Wrote out a development plan for my project with all the packages I will need. phew, this is gonna be a long ride.
