Introduce each other

Films one of you loved that the other hasn't seen yet, and the watchlist you share.

How Letterboxd compatibility works

1. Enter two Letterboxd usernames

Yours and a friend's, or any two public profiles. There's no login and no Letterboxd password.

2. MovieDisco compares the two histories

It lines up both rating histories and watchlists, measures how often your ratings agree, and finds where your tastes overlap and split.

3. Share the result

Every comparison has its own link. Send it to your friend, then find a movie you'll both like.

More than a match percentage

Two people can share most of their favorites and still disagree on what to watch tonight. The comparison shows the films that bring you together and the ones you rated furthest apart, so the next movie night starts with something you both want to see.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you compare two Letterboxd profiles?

Yes. Enter two public Letterboxd usernames and MovieDisco compares the profiles in full: how often your ratings agree, the films you both love, the films you rated furthest apart, the directors you share, and your shared watchlist.

How is Letterboxd taste compatibility calculated?

MovieDisco takes the films you've both rated and measures how often your ratings land within half a star of each other. It also compares the genres, countries and directors each of you watches more than typical Letterboxd members do.

Can I compare more than two people?

Yes, inside a group. Start the Letterboxd recommender, add up to 9 friends, and open the Stats tab to see group stats for everyone.

Do both people need to sign up?

No. Both profiles just need to be public on Letterboxd. Neither person logs in.

Can we find a movie we'll both like?

Yes. From any comparison, select "Find a movie for both" to get recommendations that score well for both of you.
