IMDb Redesigns List-Like Pages

To the IMDB staff members, while I was adding my own user list for the video game romhacks I want to make someday. When I tried to add the NES version of Back to the Future (1989) Not the movie version of Back to the Future (1985)

I tried to use the URL IMDB page link as seen in this screenshot

However I'm unable to use the Back to the Future (1989) URL link https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2197817/?ref_=fn_al_tt_42

Which is frustrating because I liked the URL link you had for the adding to title lists and people list.

Please bring back the URL IMDB link feature for the list of people and list of titles on IMDB to be added to mine and other peoples Your List features.

Let me know if you can fix this problem, I want to get back to adding more to Your Lists including my Video Game Romhack ideas or adding specific actors I want to add but can't because I can't add the URL IMDB link to get them added to the list. Please help me fix this issue.

Hi, would be nice, if the title list exports would also contain the earliest release date, same as the release date in the former title list exports.

By the way I also suggested this as users got asked for commenting the new lists pages and you told me you had forwarded my issue to the developers.

Chris

please put back in the earliest release date, should be no problem, making 2 columns, earliest and local release date... or am I wrong?

When exporting "Your ratings" to CSV there are two problems:

1. The titles for TV episodes was changed. Previously for elements of title type "tvEpisode" the series name would be prepended to the title, i.e. "Bob's Burgers: Sea Me Now" (for tt6104384), now it's just "Sea Me Now".

2. I noticed that for Moon 44 (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097910), the Year is 2019 and Release Date is "2019-01-06". According to the release info page, that is the date of "internet" release in the USA while there exists a "video premiere" for USA in 1991 and generally the year is listed as 1990 (release in West Germany, Netherlands, United Kingdom).

As I use my IMDB list as cinema diary and due to the fact that the new list has now pages I have to change list order to "last entry first". If I want to move an entry from position 1 to e.g. 2 the entry move to position 2 in list BUT in list order "first entry first". Double checked. Change back means in my case to move entry 2780 list entries down - every 100 entries technically interrupted because there are no pages any more. Is there any (more) user friendly way to change entries? Sometimes it happens (e.g. movies shown in film festivals) that a movie isn't yet listed on imdb. So from time to time I like to exchange an entry.

"we are looking at how large lists (100+ items) are paginated or can be searched.  This is both in edit and view mode.  "

Any news about this, it's been two months and large lists remain really hard to navigate.

Can we have the old version of your rating when it has 1-250 then new page

it takes like a hour to find title 1,215 it gives me a headache 

Another problem with the infinite scrolling on large lists (and advanced search results, for that matter) is that, as you scroll farther and farther down, the list starts using up more and more memory on your PC and everything loads slower and slower.

Now that I have actually used IMDb's "new and improved" List feature for several months, I would like to point out the changes that annoy me the most. I should mention though that I don't use IMDb nearly as much as I used to as a result of the degraded user experience, especially with regard to the List feature which is what I had always used the most. (I mostly just use it now to maintain my watch list.)

1. The absolute worst thing is the long single page lists which make using large lists almost unbearable.
Take a look at this list: Classic Movies. It used to be my favorite of the lists I've created, and now it is almost unusable.

2. When I View my own lists (not anyone else's) the Title and Description fields seem to be always in Edit mode. When you click anywhere in those fields you automatically start editing that field. Many of my lists contain links to other lists in their Description field (see my Classic Movies link above), and when I click on any of the links, it takes me into Edit mode for the Description field for a while before following the link.

Fortunately, nearly all of my lists contain more than 100 entries, so I rarely have to deal with problems in the new Editor, but I dread the day when I'll be forced to use that.

Another thing: I was really excited about the new Filter feature, but it has turned out to be not as useful as I expected it to be and I pretty much never use it. I mostly looked forward to using it to filter by genre and I expected it to work like the genre filters on JustWatch, ReelGood, and others, but it doesn't. On those sites, your genre selections are OR-ed, so if you select Thriller, Crime, Mystery, and Film-Noir (because you have a general idea of what kind of movie you want to watch) you see any movie that specifies ANY of those genres. But, on IMDb, your genre selections are AND-ed, so it only shows you movies that specify ALL of those genres. So, to accomplish the same thing (display movies that match ANY of those genres) on IMDb, you have to use the genre filter four times.

The edit mode for lists over 100 items is bad. It would be nice to be the same for lists with less than 100 items

Hello,

I have been using this platform for really more than 11 years, I graduated from Film & TV thanks to this platform.

I have been using the Pro version with another account, able to work with it profesionally. This platform has been a personal thing to me for years.

Please tell me why the Refine option in Watchlist is long gone?? My watchlist is projects I personally recommended or added myself through a lot of research. I have more than 1000 titles, do you really think if I feel like watching a feature movie from '60s drama genre I would just like.. scroll through my short films, series, all of those Serbian titles I have been postponing for years or.. those titles I was recommended while studying Asian cinema at the Academy. I feel completely lost now, this list does not have a function now. But it is still on the main menu right next to my account. Why? It has no meaning, it is just a bunch of words added somehow. I have started my list with 'Blow' back in 2013! And I still plan to watch it. 

If those feedbacks are read by someone, I would really like to thank you and ask you to follow up this question to the person who thought limiting options is a great idea. I love so many features of this website, do not ruin it, please.

Keep it the way it works.

Thank you for your time.

Good to hear the lists are being redesigned. I suggest you track an expiration date as an optional meta tag for each list. I was astonished to see hugely irrelevant and obsolete list widget content today. Really conveyed sense of IMDB as a zombie site. Those lists cohere due to a time window of availability on a resource that has since become universally irrelevant. These content items should automatically prune after their relevancy is over.

Edited because there seems to be no way to delete a post.
