We have probably been in a conversation before when we are trying to tell our friends to watch this classic or must-see movie, but the title is on the tip of our tongues. Instead, we are forced to explain what the movie is about, and wind up naming other movies the actors that star in the film have been in for context.

Now, movie buffs never have to struggle to remember a movie title again, thanks to this helpful website.

Properly called whatismymovie.com, this site will help bring up movies you have forgotten the names of after the user enters in some keywords. The site features a site bar where the user can describe the movie in their own words. Keywords that can be used include plot points, actors, directors, genres and so on and so forth. For example, the user can search for "adventure movies about samurai" or "supernatural movie with angels and demons and the guy from The Matrix."

After hitting "search," a list of results will come up that include general matches and those based on the actor or director the search engine picked up on. The user can further improve results by clicking on "good match" if the result was a good fit or the thumbs down "bad match" for those titles that weren't exactly what you where looking for.

The results feature the movie title and release year, the movie poster and a synopsis of the film. Users can also click on "more like this" to bring up a list of similar movies to that specific title.

Whatismymovie.com was created by Valossa, the AI-powered video analysis company that hosts a library of 40,000 titles. These include movies from 1900 to the first half of 2015. The results are based on the company's "deep content" research, which includes transcripts, audio, visual patterns and pretty much any form of data that describes the video content. After analyzing the deep levels of the video, the site converts it into advanced metadata, which is then processed by a cognitive machine-learning system that understands natural language and matches it to the site's metadata.

Not only does this site help users remember the name of that movie they are thinking of, but it also helps users find new movies to watch. For example, users can enter "find all Harry Potter movies" into the search field to bring up the titles of all the films, in case you missed one. If you are looking for a movie that is a "sci-fi movie about space battles and laser guns," the engine will be able to pull up titles that are most appropriate.

Users can also find a movie based on an exact quote featured in the film, such as all the related Star Wars titles when searching for "may the force be with you."

Once you find the movie title you were looking for, whatismymovie.com provides users with the ability to watch it now. By clicking on this button, users can be redirected to sites like Amazon, where they can purchase the title.
