Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe - tt0032475

This title is currently incorrectly formatted as a standalone feature film. Adventures of Captain Marvel (1941) is a classic 12-chapter movie serial produced by Republic Pictures. According to IMDb guidelines for Movie Serials, these titles must be formatted as a TV Series so that the individual chapters/episodes can be properly attached. Please approve the title conversion to a Series format. Comprehensive evidence of its 12-chapter episodic structure and historical preservation can be verified through the official Library of Congress records, commercial distribution catalogs, and archives provided below.

• A serial is a film released in parts or chapters and should be listed as a standalone feature film title with the keyword serial. They are generally screened one chapter each week at a cinema where the story structure has each chapter ending with a cliffhanger to entice the audience to watch the following chapter when released. For example, Flash Gordon (1936).

Unfortunately, Flash Gordon (1936) has been changed so that the example doesn't make sense.

I see that AnimeXCloud has been informed of the guideline here last year but is still pressing ahead.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0027623/ Somebody just changed the title type for Flash Gordon (1936) from film to TV series. It is not a TV series. IMDb should have created a separate title type for film serials years ago, but mislabeling it as a TV series is not a solution. That is all.
