BadMovieBot

A bot with an appetite for terrible movies equal to MST3K, BadMovieBot accesses The Movie Database with an API call, and with specified parameters retrieves a list of movies that can be considered "bad". Some of these parameters include a voting average between 0.0 stars and 4.5 stars and a release date between 1960 and 1990. The bot then selects a random movie from the returned list and tweets the movie's name, synopsis, and release date. The code for BadMovieBot was written in JavaScript and utilizes API calls and Twitter functions.
