movie listing database download

[vhelp]

does anyone know where i can find a site that has all the movies ever made, in a database or text file format ?

i used to have something like this a long ago, maybe back in the mid 80's, but i don't have that dos program. it had something like 18 thousand movies, i think. anyway, i want to get an idea of what "fields" are in them to use as a possible template so that i can create a search sheet in an access db. this is for a project i am working on. i want to create an easy, searchable frontend of some sort. thank you.

The best is IMDB > http://www.imdb.com/interfaces
There is also http://www.hometheaterinfo.com/dvdlist.htm

Why go to all that effort when you can can create and access a live database by using a PHP script ($12) from here:

http://codecanyon.net/item/movies-database/4803835?WT.ac=item_more_thumb&WT.z_author=Gejadze

There is a 'live preview' so you can see what you're getting. All you need is a webserver (lots of free platforms around just Google).

EDIT: come to think of it...why pay anything. Just use a browser button/shortcut (http://allmoviedb.com/)
The page can be got to direct by copying the address ie. http://allmoviedb.com/en/movie/3110/Shane-1953
or http://allmoviedb.com/en/movie/19/Metropolis-1927

The database can link to trailers (Youtube), posters and images eg.

As a side note: I think the total number of movies ever made has gone up a tad (to something like half a million).

thanks. i had already found http://www.hometheaterinfo.com/dvdlist.htm yesterday, and d/l'ed the .csv file and imported it into an acces db. however, it is missing other fields that would be useful. also, there is a lot of duplicate entries (due to what they offer in the db) but i prefer to have the words like "THE" in front, like "THE MUNSTERS" and so on. but you have enter "MUNSTERS" etc. i don't always recall the exact spelling, so this could pull up no matches in the searches. anyway. as far as php and java scripting, i am clueless, not to mention how difficult it is to program in those languages. i would need lots of hand-holding, which i have none. thanks for the tips/leads thus far. i'm still searching..

rather than start a new thread topic, i thought i'd ask the question..

how do i find out what tv/movies Actor A did with Actor B ?

example, while watching the disney channel preview of their latest movie, 'zapped', staring Zendaya and Spencer Boldman, the announcer mentions that the two worked together before. is there a way to find this info on imdb ? or does one have to google for it ? suppose i want to find other thing like this for other people. i was hoping that there is a resource on imdb for this. or is some scraping envolved. i don't know. anyway, thanks in advance for any leads to this.

edit: i found it, but using the above two people turned up nothing.

"Collaborations and Overlaps" <--- that's what its called, the term for what i was looking for.

Want a list of titles in which both Brad Pitt and George Clooney appeared? Or a list of people who worked on both Forrest Gump and Apollo 13? Try searching Collaborations and Overlaps.
