IMDB.com website loads way too slowly!
I don't get why imdb.com needs to be loaded dynamically, which causes it to load quite slowly. Come on guys, this is very amateuristic and makes IMDB look bad. Please fix this stuff, just load the website fully, like before the redesign.
To clarify, I'm mostly talking about the movies and series websites. For example the ''User reviews'', ''Top picks'' and ''More like this'' sections always load with a delay. I get this problem on all desktop browsers like Firefox, Edge and Vivaldi.

I am not an admin, however, for me the page you list comes up instantly for me. Speed test for the page shows it loaded fully, including the sections you list, for me in 3 seconds.

@Navin2000 Thanks for the feedback. Please see the advice mentioned in https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/general-information/why-is-imdb-displaying-differently-on-my-browser/GF2ZAR69V859XLHF ... in the majority of similar cases any slowdowns are caused by ad blockers interfering with the experience. Please let us know whether this fixes the issue.

I've noticed that having the DevTools window open can also slow thing down slightly, or on occasion a lot. I concur about the new design containing extreme amounts of JavaScript bloat.

I am a user from China and even in my country, it is very fast to browse IMDb.

I'm going to put forth my best effort build a whole damned parallel economy, given all the nonsense that is going on today.
