This useful tool from Brent S and Will G will help you compare what you own on Movies Anywhere (updated 3/13/2024)
You first need to install the Fandango At Home Catalog tool in Chrome/Edge
Next go to https://moviesanywhere.com/my-movies while signed in and run the extension (click it). If you have a large library and this is your first time running it, it may take awhile (up to 2 hours).
Save the CSV file somewhere you can find it on your computer
Next click on this link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HCP4XAtw_L47u0hiGLoOxIjmVU_qQlnMWmEwnkWstlQ/copy? it will open up a copy of the compare file. This is yours to edit
You will need to allow access to send and receive data:
Go to the second sheet in this file titled MA Movies Report - Import in Cell B1
Make sure your cursor is in cell B1
Go to File
Click on Import
Upload
Find your most recent file from the vudu catalog of your MA movies (run on this link: https://moviesanywhere.com/my-movies )
Change the import location to "Replace data at selected cell"
Unclick "Convert text to numbers, dates and formulas"
Click Import Data
Wait for it to load (this may take a few minutes, it may take longer depending on your library size)
Check the tabs at the bottom to filter as you would like:
FAQ on Personalized Sheets
Do I have to run a new report every day?
No, it will automatically update. You only have to set it up once and then just open when you want to look at it.
When is it updated?
Pricing will be updated daily, usually by early afternoon. (Note this one updates a little later in the day than the others)
Does it automatically update with the movies I buy?
No, if you want it to take away the movies you have bought you will need to run a report and import the updated CSV as before. After you run it the first time, the rest run much faster. Or you can just manually add the MA ID and quality of the movie you bought into the Vudu movies, etc tab. Or you can just leave it as is and skip over the ones you know you purchased.
It’s not showing I own a movie even though it’s in the movies owned tab
You probably don’t have it in there as text. Make sure you are pasting as a value and not formula if you are copying and pasting.
I messed it all up, help me!
Just start over and make a new one, it takes about 5 min and is probably easier than figuring out what you did.
I want it to sort in a different order
Sorry, it pulls from another sheet so you can’t. You can copy and paste into a totally different sheet if you really want to do something else with it but it won’t update in that one.
Can I utilize it on a mobile device?
Yes, once it’s created you can open it on any device. To set it up the first time and run a csv on an android device follow the directions here: https://www.makeuseof.com/chrome-extensions-android-mobile/ and then send me a chat to help set up your sheet.
