/me runs the example on bigbash.it, cleaned up a bit:

    (
      trap "kill 0" SIGINT;
      export LC_ALL=C;
      find movies.dat.gz -print0
        | xargs -0 -i sh -c "gzip -dc {} | tail -n +2"
        | sed "s/::/;/g"
        | cut -d $';' -f2
        | sort -t$';'  -k 1,1
        | head -n10
        | awk -F ';' '{print $1}'
    )

Yeah, how about no. That's a very neat site and a clever hack, but there are clear escaping flaws in there for valid movie names.

bash and standard unix tools are a terrible structured-data manipulator. it's part of why `jq` is so widely used and loved, despite being kinda slow and hard to remember at times - it does things correctly, unlike most glued-together tools.

Yep, pretty sure that this script doesn't handle quoted strings in any way, and would promptly mangle a title that contains a semicolon.
