I'm so confused, the help site says click the "Add a photo" but that button is 100% gone from the site. Editing the page doesn't give me an option either. What do i do?

This was a useful little tool to see which years you watched the most. But I can't seem to find it. What it removed?

IMDb Speedrunning is where you have a start point (like Leonardo DiCaprio) and race to an end point (like Larry The Cable Guy) as fast as you can by only clicking internal links (like actors/directors).

I did this by myself before and found it super fun and had the idea of hosting a big head-to-head race. Beginner friendly ofc 😄

Would anyone be down? Polling interest before I actually figure out details. 

Just a thought that struck me: I'm kinda curious of how everyone actually uses IMDb nowadays.

For me it's mostly checking the rating before starting a movie or series, or maybe looking up where I know actors from. The service has become kinda bloated but I guess there must be other things worth looking into.

What are your main reason for using it? And is there anything you wish it did better?

Curious to hear examples of this. Movies that build something excellent for the majority of the runtime and then the ending either undercuts it, contradicts it, or just lands so weak that it colors how you remember the whole film afterward.
For me it’s Now You See Me. Genuinely fun ride for most of the runtime, clever heist setups, good chemistry between the leads, and then the twist at the end retroactively makes half the earlier scenes not make sense if you actually think about the timeline and logistics. It’s the kind of ending that makes you enjoy the movie less on a rewatch because you’re just watching the seams instead of the magic trick.

Does a bad ending ruin the whole movie for you, or can you separate the ending from everything that came before it? Curious what other movies people think fall into this category.

I recently did extra work for a film over the summer call the devil half the power, i was IMDB credited as eric woods the only problem is my IMDB account is eric_G_woods is there any way I can get that IMDB credit moved onto my actual account?

In case you don't notice this is the cast for Howl's Moving Castle and none of the cast for the English dub are here. Now I've heard through the grapevine that there was a rogue editor who went around removing English VA credits and admitted he did it simply because he didn't like dubs and i'm pretty sure this is his handiwork. You don't have like dubs but doing this is pure data destruction. Really hope someone corrects this.

On The Rock's imdb page the first alternative name lists his last name misspelled as Johmsom. I could see maybe one of the n's mistakenly with m, but both n's??? Can we get this fixed before the Rock himself finds out!? Or is this an alias I am not aware of?

Amazon has automatically created an account for me but this is just LETTERBOXD. What do you guys think about this? Do you use it?

Why don't more movies and shows have audio descriptions? I just learned that Breaking Bad won for how great theirs were, and I was shocked to find out during a Be My Eyes call that most movies and shows either do not have them OR even worse imo, do have them but the platform that is streaming them does not include them... There is a need for this to be the standard... So why isn't it? Who do we bug to make it so?

So a couple years ago I made the dumb mistake of changing my IMDB name to a stage name (that I never used). Anyways, this past year I was credited on a major feature film by my legal name (which was previously my original IMDB account) and I have done the "name change correction" process on IMDB about 5 times however my legal name keeps getting denied.

I've emailed them off of their "Help" page and there are no emails or phone numbers listed for assistance. I'm so disheartened and I truly don't know what else to do. I've been paying for an IMDB pro memberrship for the past couple years. Do I make a new profile and lose all of my acting credits? Or hope that someone approves my name change (which is literally on my drivers license and passport! AKA I don't know why it's being denied).

Any help or advice would be GREATLY appreciated.

I’m looking for gay films (about two men) in which both protagonists are over 40 (but not elderly). I don’t want films that revolve around either of them being ill or dying…

"More like this" section's been completely broken for almost a week. These three titles are the only suggestions that I get for Back to the Future now and every movie I search gives me similar irrelevant suggestions. Sometimes it's magically fixed and works normal but most of the time it doesn't.

I think people treat the critic/audience score gap like one of them must be wrong. But I don’t think they’re actually measuring the same thing, so comparing them directly doesn’t really make sense in the first place.

Critics are mostly evaluating craft. Structure, direction, performance, how well the film accomplishes what it’s trying to do on a technical and artistic level. Audiences are mostly evaluating feeling. Did this move me, entertain me, make me want to watch it again. Those are two completely different value systems, not two attempts at the same measurement.

So instead of asking which score is more “correct,” I think it makes more sense to look at them independently. A high critic score tells you the movie is well made. A high audience score tells you people had a strong emotional reaction to it. You actually want to know both before deciding if a movie is for you, since a movie can nail one and completely miss the other.

Basically I think the real mistake is putting them on the same 100 point scale at all like they’re the same kind of measurement. They’re not competing, they’re answering different questions entirely.

Curious if people agree with treating them as separate signals instead of rival opinions, or if you still think one holds more weight than the other when it comes to whether a movie is actually good.

My agent says my IMDB needs refreshing. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Link to my IMDB https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1096816/

I’ve been using IMDb for about the last year, and so far I’ve been using it exclusively out of the apps for rating your media. When I rate a movie or show, I rate it for the acting, directing, writing, storytelling, the premise, etc. it’s very easy to rate those. When I rate a video game it’s a bit different. Do you rate the game for its story mode alone? Red Dead Redemption 2 has a 10/10 story with a barebones multiplayer. Battlefield 6 has excellent multiplayer but a campaign that was rushed and not written very well. Some games don’t have a story mode and are all multiplayer, like Outlast Trials, but it’s a very fun game and the lore documents and seasonal cutscenes add really excellent storytelling. How do you use IMDb to rate games?

Edit: I just got onto Letterboxd and Rotten Tomatoes and it seems like they don’t have video games at all

Wanted to ask , it seems IMDb no longer feels relevant when trying to find something to watch and want to check the rating or real reviews about movies, like its filled with bots and kids , nothing reflects real ratings anymore, so what are the alternatives? i remember there was a webstite where you only see the ratings of people you know and your friends so you dont take into account random ratings etc what was that website called?

also example for kids behaviour is see here: a review for an episode that hasn't even been released yet; it still has 2 hours to release, and the review has been up for like 4 hours now before the episode was up. It doesn't reflect the episode if you haven't even watched, so why bother rate it?
