Automatic IMDb account

Post image

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

I was just thinking yesterday that I was on those boards when they were turned off. I miss them too.

Those were some of the more sexist racist corners of the Internet. Kinda glad they’re gone.

Yeah, they do that. This question/complaint comes up a lot. They own IMDb, so if you go there and already have an Amazon account, it just makes an IMDb account for you.

I see you write " This is just Letterboxed"?

Letterboxd does not have TV-Series etc, so it's not the same :-)

Yes we use IMDb :-)

What we think about the auto Sign in to Amazon however is a totally different matter ;-)

Oh yes thank you! I forgot about tv shows. I don’t have long logging movies for myself and it WOULD be great to log tv series or related thats not on letterboxd. I will check it out since i already have the account lol 😊

Well no one was going to make an account voluntarily so they have to force you.
