Watching movies and series from the command line (lemmy.ml)

I've been using mov-cli and lobster to watch movies and series from the command line, I installed their lastest versions but they don't seem to be working anymore. I really liked their simplicity of typing the title of a movie or series and start watching on mpv. Is there any other software that works in the same way?

By "on the command line" you mean that you type a command, it starts an X server, and starts MPV with the movie? I mean, it should be possible to just write a script for that. Scripting isn't really my forté though so I couldn't tell you exactly.

no, he reads the 1's and 0's in real time. At least that's my interpretation of OP
