> It’s a website that shows every movie screening in every cinema across the entire Germany.

> And when I say EVERY screening, I mean it:

Well, I checked Heidelberg and only "Die Kamera" (1 screen) and "Gloria" (2 screens) are listed, but "Karlstorkino" (1 screen) and "Luxor" (6 screens) are missing. So for Heidelberg the site covers only 30% of all screens.

The "Luxor" in Walldorf seems to be missing too.

I have not checked any other cities.

I've checked Dresden, and the best independent Cinema with the good movies is also missing. The scraper still lists the old variant from 4 years ago, so it must be an older scraper. He should really countercheck with other scrapers
Fun to see Dresden mentioned here, but I'm curious which theater you mean? Schauburg, Thalia and Programmkino Ost are there. I can understand the KiK is missing and Zentralkino is probably still too new. I think the Kino im Dach is no more and the KIF also unfortunately died :(

By the way, we also have kinokalender.com, which - as one really can't tell by the domain lol - is Dresden-specific and a great resource.

Kino im Dach changed to Zentralkino, and some Zentralkino films are missing. Which is bad, as they are besides the Rundkino the only ones which show weird one-time only films, which you dont want to miss
