Seemingly simple task – list movies from command line.

Hi – this may seem very basic but I’ve been running into a dead end for so long I’m ready to pop. Any help is appreciated.

I’m just trying to get some response from a simple call to my Kodi 16 install – ie GetMovies. I’m trying this from the Ubuntu instance that Kodi is installed on via:

wget -qO- http://MyServerIP:8080/jsonrpc?request={“jsonrpc”: “2.0”, “method”: “VideoLibrary.GetMovies”, “id”: 1}

I’m getting the error:

{“error”:{“code”:-32700,”message”:”Parse error.”},”id”:null,”jsonrpc”:”2.0″}

I’ve tried countless other things and am wondering if I’m not using this kind of call correctly? I’m looking for any way to get any information from command-line in linux.
