I had been using the undocumented Yahoo movies API until it was pulled a few days ago, so I'm looking for another way to retrieve local movie showtimes (ideally by theater). I found this thread about YQL datatables on SO, and the last post looked really promising. I just can't seem to figure out how to query the data to return local movies and showtimes. I've been trying variations on "SELECT * from movies.showtimes where location='myzip'" with no success. Any ideas?

A:
select * from movies.showtimes
To get a list of all movies. Then:
select * from movies.showtimes with location='myzip' and name='one of the movies'
You could also do
select * from movies.showtimes with location='myzip' and name in whatever
There's no list by location, unfortunately
