I Built a Python script that uses a local Ollama LLM to automatically find and add movies to Radarr.

It picks random films from your library, asks Ollama for similar suggestions based on theme and atmosphere, validates against OMDb, scores with plot embeddings, then adds the top results to Radarr automatically.

Examples:

  • Whiplash → La La Land, Birdman, All That Jazz
  • The Thing → In the Mouth of Madness, It Follows, The Descent
  • In Bruges → Seven Psychopaths, Dead Man’s Shoes

Features:

  • 100% local, no external AI API
  • –auto mode for daily cron/Task Scheduler
  • –genre “Horror” for themed movie nights
  • Persistent blacklist, configurable quality profile
  • Works on Windows, Linux, Mac

    Here’s the disclosure you need: all projects you see have involved AI somewhere, whether the developers like to admit it or not. End of. The genie is out of the bottle, and it’s not going back in. Railing against it really isn’t going to change anything.

    I’ve said it before, AI is here to stay. It’s not a fad. Kind of like when the internet first started to become publicly available. Lots of people deemed it a fad. It’s now a global phenom and it is the basis by which we do business on the daily, minute by minute, globally. I do think that AI needs some heavy governmental regulation. It would be great if we could all play nicely together without involving the government(s). Alas, we don’t seem to be able to do that, and so, government(s) has to step in, unfortunately. The problem with that is, imho, surveillance capitalism has worked so well that governments also want to take a peek at that data too. I have nothing to back up that conspiracy theory, it’s just a feeling I get.
