Look nice, but not too practical. Too many graphics. Hard for die hard movie fans to look for information easily. It will take too many clicks and scrolls to do a simple research with all the graphic instead of list. Hope there is an option for me to keep the old design?

Hmmmmm, im speechless! I don't see the need to change this classic and iconic site. Please help me understand what's broken here? From such a beautiful page, to a "New Look' that seems who ever is trying to create this new page is wearing bifocals becasue everything has been enlarged taking up so much real estate and making each page look horrible! Credits are now enlarged covers of the actors movie and buttons with drop-downs, just to see what an actor is doing. RIDICULIOUS! What....are you guys bored at office/home? I feel like this is becoming Amazons rate/review section of thier site. Ever since Amazon's purchase of IMDB, this site has been promoting so much of Amazon's original content and monopolizing thier content instead of others. This site belongs to Actors, not greedy companies that sooner-or-later will try to find more deceptive ways to raise prices and advertise more Amazon's non-sense. They're rasing Prime prices, they'll soon raise the price for IMDBPro. Just watch! Let's start a petition for the so-called "New Look" to not be passed!

PEtition link to stop IMDB to stop its so-called "New Look!" Please go onto this link to see my comments...https://chng.it/xtprF89H
Don't erase this! This is freedom of speech and as such should be allowed all my fellow actors to have the choice to reject of accept of these absurd changes!

Please just keep the current reference view as is, it is good and very much tried and tested. It has all the necessary information on a single page and works both on large and small screens alike.
If you really must change it, just have the "Explore More" removed, i.e. always expand the side bar, and call it a day.
Also, it is not like it couldn't be fine tuned. There are still raster graphics that could be presented these days as vector graphics, just to name a single example. Implementing that might require less bandwidth, thus lower energy consumption and therefore be a more sensible option for modern environmental friendly, or at least aware, era!

I made the mistake of clicking on the "new look" for IMDb pages that are in development, and to my dismay, the choice came to be default. I'd like to go back to the traditional look. Is there a way to revert back?

The new page displays character names with "as", unlike the old page.
The new page also omits "Self" from character names in the Self section.
This can have awkward results because of Self character descriptions:

"As" attributes are not displayed for TV series, not even when clicking to view episodes. This seems inconsistent when they are displayed for other titles.

On mobile view: These issues already exist in the old mobile site, but it might make sense to consider them when updating the pages:
When there is a featured video, it is at the top above the headshot. I think this might sometimes make it confusing when the video still frame features a different person.
The space for the bio is not always long enough to display even automatic bios on a small screen.

What are you thinking? PLEASE don't make this new beta version the new webpage. It is awful. Hard to find credits. Now I have to click to add previous credits??? I had to do it a dozen or more times for an actor with hundreds of credits. I loved the site for years, and the ability to wiz down the page seeing the list of credits. DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE OF MAKING THIS YOUR NEW PAGE!

This is a giant step in the wrong direction. The truncation of information in the current design streamlines any query I have about a film, actor or crew member. When I want to know more about a particular film/person, it's fine if I click and you want to add more pics, but the initial impression should be a large overview.
The new design is all splash, little content, and filled with things I don't care about perse. Trailer button, star rating, movie poster, I don't care unless I'm searching for that specific film.
PS - I rarely watch trailers on your site because I have to sit through commercials. You realize a trailer is a commercial, right?

HOW DO I OPT-OUT OF THESE EMAILS?
Holy crap, I've taken the time to look at the site and give feedback, but I don't need an email for every response - sheesh!
I'm not following the thread - btw - the emails just keep coming.
UNSUBSCRIBE PLEASE - or at least add that option to your emails and I'll do it myself.

On new "feature" that I strongly dislike in the new design hides information behind a 'show next' button. If I'm looking at an actor with hundreds of credits it takes many clicks of the 'show next 30' items to see the earliest entries. Please add a 'Load All' button that would load all entries to address this. Thanks.

Holy crap, I have just switched to the new IMDB style, and it's bad, real bad. Don't make the design switch, that's my advice. The old one is 100x better, so don't try to fix something that isn't broken. What I especially don't like is that it's now two columns and not one big list when it comes to seeing the actor/actress credits, and you have to click on the ''more'' button, very annoying!
