Movie Quote Trivia (video and source code)

Alexa will speak a line from one of the Top 250 IMDB movies, and you have to guess what movie it's from. 5 rounds. It's very difficult, but really quite fun. It's been a big hit in my house. The best part is when a quote has cursing in it, and Alexa bleeps it. One time the entire quote was just a bleep. It was from Patton.

Thanks for posting this! Did you remove the bit that tied the app to your Echo? Just remember your last post on /r/amazonecho saying that.

@RJ: The code running on my AWS account will only take requests from my official app. I did that mainly to follow the pattern that Amazon suggested in via the templates. But the code is all open (MIT) and there's nothing stopping anyone from running a copy for themselves or others! I could open up my Lambda function so that it can be run by other devs who set up an identical Alexa App. I'm new to this scene - is that something devs are generally doing, or are we mostly just looking at what others are doing and waiting for the official App Store?
