For me, it's Option Two; I pride myself on having a flypaper memory for stuff like films, tv, music, etc. , but I HAVE been known to resort to Google now and again, particularly as I age.
Sorry to say I depend on Google a lot....since my flypaper memory has come unglued. :teddyr:
I never use Google for movies . . . IMDB all the way, baby! :teddyr:
Depends on if I can remember it or not :teddyr: Usually goes like this: You know that one movie, with that one guy in it? Well that guy was also in this other movie - look that up on IMDB - okay now I remember the guy's name. Then I look up the list of movies he was in - oh that's the name of the movie I was looking for in the first place!
Even if I do remember something I usually double-check it on Google or IMDb just to make sure I'm not making some stupid mistake.
If I have to do it from memory alone I don't need Google, but I use Google all the time to select a good picture/video in my post.
Depends on memory. Somethings good, sometimes not so much. I also use it to narrow titles and selections as I can't recall somethings and do a general narrow of what I know from the results.
IMDb for movies unless I forgot the title, then I google the plot.
I'll 'Google' sometimes to fact check my memory.
