How to Plan a Movie Marathon with ChatGPT
Use ChatGPT and ToolRouter to plan a themed movie marathon with a coherent lineup.
Tool
ChatGPT works well when the marathon plan needs to be turned into a shareable recommendation for a group. Run `blend_taste`, then ask ChatGPT to write a short pitch for each film in the lineup.

Steps
Once connected (see setup above), use the Similar Movies tool:
- Tell ChatGPT the anchor films and any theme for the marathon night.
- Run `similar-movies.blend_taste` to get the candidate shortlist.
- Ask ChatGPT to order the results and write a one-line pitch for each film.
- Share the final plan with co-watchers.
Example Prompt
Try this with ChatGPT using the Similar Movies tool
Use similar-movies to blend Heat, Collateral, and Drive into a marathon lineup. Sequence the results by pacing and write a one-sentence pitch for each film.
Tips
- Ask ChatGPT to pitch each film so co-watchers can vote on the order.
- Use the blend to find films that hold up as a coherent set rather than just individual good picks.
- Exclude films already watched to keep the shortlist fresh.
