Lists: Sorting list by title but ignoring articles
https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/imdbcom/lists-sorting-list-by-title-but-ignoring-articles/5f4a79248815453dba732626

Is there any way to sort lists by title 
but have it ignore articles like "the", "a", etc?
A lot of movies begin with "the"...

append article words when sorting alphabetically
https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/imdbcom/append-article-words-when-sorting-alphabetically/5f5bc90d4833936433fafb7d

When sorting alphabetically, please append a title's article word.  For example, "The Invisible Man" should be sorted as "Invisible Man, The" 

.

My guess is that by now hundreds of people have requested that IMDB fix the list feature when sorting alphabetical.  Being a former programmer myself, I know it would be a simple routine for movie titles that begin with "The" be sorted on the next word after.   My guess is that IMDB doesn't really care about feedback and will just chuckle at this.  After all, they refused to grandfather me in to their new security measures.  For the first time in 20 years, I had to perform a verification step to log into my account on IMDB, using the email address I originally registered with.  I registered in 2001.  I don't use that email address, and can't use that email address anymore.  Who out there that had a email address in 2001 still use it in 2022?  I explained the situation and they blew me off.
