Still dumbly feeding money to iQiyi, Youku, Tencent Video? Still putting up with those annoying splash ads? Still stuck watching blurry 720p? Bro, count how many years you’ve been taken for a ride. Today Bro Bird is laying it all out — 6 open-source free 4K movie sites, zero ads, zero subscriptions, deploy once and never pay a dime again. I tested them myself with Lust, Caution (Uncut), Blossoms Shanghai, and Black Myth, 4K on mobile opens instantly, zero buffering. Speed playback, bullet comments, casting — everything works flawlessly, smooth as if you’re on a native app.

Here’s each of the six sites, explained one by one:

GoFilm – Golang + Vue stack, auto-scrapes resources, toggles between classic and new movies with Blu-ray quality, backend rock-solid.

MoonTV – Next.js cross-platform player, bookmarks and watch history sync across devices, perfect 4K adaptation on mobile, enjoy anywhere.

All open source, support one-click deploy on Vercel, Docker, Cloudflare Pages — build your own private 4K cinema in ten minutes. Movies, TV series, anime, variety shows, the latest content from across the web, all searchable. HDR and Dolby Vision at your fingertips. Works on phone, tablet, laptop, TV — everything the platforms have, you have; everything they don’t, you have too.

Friends still obediently paying membership fees, it’s time to wake up. Those hundreds of bucks you throw at platforms every year — they use that money to buy copyrights to restrict you, to buy tech to detect you, to buy ads to bombard you. Share this, so your friends who are still playing the sucker can see it too.

New Version Notes

Website frontend

• For suggestions on new features or improvements to existing ones, leave a comment under issue #71. I can batch process them during my mid-January break.
• Frontend now links site name and playback sources with backend data, editable via admin panel.
• Movie detail pages and homepage navigation data structure changed, but style remains consistent.
• Default access address: ServerIP:DefaultPort (e.g., [http://127.0.0.1/index])

Admin backend

• New admin backend feature group: manages “Scrape Sites”, “Scheduled Updates”, “Site Basic Info”, “Image Sync”, “Movie Categories”, “Movie Info” (some features still under development; existing features unaffected).
• Admin backend requires login. Default username/password: admin admin (after login, change password via dropdown in top-right corner).
• Please set up your own instance for details.
• Default access address: ServerIP:DefaultPort/manage (e.g., [http://127.0.0.1:3600/manage])

Update notes

• Replaced main data storage method, simplified meaningless fields to save server memory.
• Replaced video player, optimized some function buttons, added playlist and next-episode controls.
• For new version installation and usage instructions, see the film folder’s README.

Update content:

• Scraping optimization: Major changes to scraping logic — before scraping the main site, configure categories (hide unwanted categories) to streamline scraped content.
• Data storage change: Main and secondary site data now stored in MySQL instead of Redis, reducing Redis memory usage.
• Updated scraped content caching: Unified syncing to MySQL via cron job (every Sunday at 4 AM), reducing MySQL update frequency.
• Resource matching logic modified: Changed movie matching logic across different sites.
• DockerFile updated: Go version and dependency upgrades broke old DockerFile — now fixed.
• UI list display areas had duplicate data issues — fixed.
• Playback page logic changed: replaced player with xgplayer.

Future plans:

• Anyone with frontend UI skills to the rescue? Stuck on interface design.
• New feature testing & bug fixes.
• UI component optimization.
• Player bug testing, optimization, and feature completion.
• More granular scraping methods for leaner data.
• Aggregate scraping: implement dynamic addition of data to the site via movie name search.

Origin

After starting to learn programming and writing my first lines of code, I had the idea to build something. At that time, I was into anime and wanted to create my own anime site. But due to a lack of knowledge, I always hit a dead end at some step — from static pages to fake data, I managed to implement bits and pieces that were possible at the time. As I learned more, that idea gradually faded. But due to some chance events, I decided to create my own open-source project, so I started from scratch and slowly built and improved this movie site. Along the way, I revised some original ideas, but now the core features are mostly complete. I’ll continue to fix bugs and add new features periodically.

If you find any bugs or have good suggestions, feel free to give feedback. Any input from experienced developers is welcome.

Update Roadmap

• Some frontend features are still under development. Feel free to keep offering good suggestions.
• For the PC version, a simple test version of watch history has been implemented. I’ll later improve the history and favorites features for both PC and mobile.
• The frontend currently meets basic viewing needs. In the future, I’ll consider adding login, accounts, and an admin backend to gradually complete the project.
