Description
Adds book, remake and country badges to Letterboxd posters. Shows film lineage and helpful origin overlays as you browse. 📚 Letterboxd Badges Book • Country • Related-Film badges directly on Letterboxd Instant context for every film. Know whether a movie is based on a book, where it comes from, or how it fits into a lineage — immediately. –––––––––––––––––––––– What this extension does Letterboxd shows posters. Letterboxd Badges shows the story behind those posters. The extension adds three types of metadata badges across the entire site: 📖 Based on a Book Shows if a film is adapted from a novel or literary work. 🌍 Country of Origin Displays a flag and country name, linking to Letterboxd’s country page. 🔁 Related Films Shows “Earlier related” / “Later related” badges when a film has remakes, originals, or lineage connections. This data comes from Wikidata and can reveal relationships you would never notice on Letterboxd. Example: Buster Keaton’s Three Ages mirrors the structure of Griffith’s Intolerance — three intercut storylines riffing on Griffith’s multi-era construction. –––––––––––––––––––––– Where badges appear • On posters (lists, watchlists, search, profiles, activity, etc.) • As chips under the film title on film pages • Optional compact mode for small posters –––––––––––––––––––––– Why this is useful Letterboxd doesn’t show at a glance: • That The Thing is based on a novella • That Stalker is adapted from a novel • That Solaris, Rififi, or Nosferatu have earlier versions • That Intolerance has later related films • What country a film comes from This extension gives you instant insight — without opening extra tabs or searching manually. –––––––––––––––––––––– For developers and contributors This extension is open-source. Pull requests, issues, and improvements are welcome. GitHub: https://github.com/HariSeldon2700/letterboxdBadges
