An other way to do it would be to grab data from the "cinema company" 
(whatever I am supposed to say in English).
I had a look to cineworld and empire cinema, they don't mention anything 
about it in the ToS. And why would they complain if we make those 
informations available to their customers anyway ?

It would make more grabber to configure thought...
