Phrase from movies/tv?
June 9, 2021 3:23 PM   Subscribe

I saw this recently: a website that given some text as input would play parts of movies / tv shows that said those words for you. I can't remember where I saw it... metafilter? some random site in my RSS reader? Anyway, I'd like to find it again.

It is NOT: playphrase.me or subzin.com

No, but that one is cool. The tool I'm looking for would make a custom movie by splicing together just the clips saying the specific word you entered from whatever media it found them in. So I could enter an arbitrary phrase and get a custom video. These just let me search for known phrases in movies.

Rereading the question I don't think I made that clear. :(

metabaroque, I think OP is looking for a tool that will build a sequence of words that may or may not have existed before in a movie. So I could type, “Tequila murdered Ted’s father” and it would pull a very short clip from four different movies and stitch them together.

Having said that, I tried searching and have so far come up empty, but this seems really cool so I’ll keep looking.

Upon failing to preview, MUBI Remix does appear to do this.

vixt, a phone app, seems to be the closest. There was a site (app?) called clipdis that did this but does not appear to be online anymore
