In Progress

More Like This filtering out watched films

I've noticed films I've marked as watched are no longer being included in the More Like This recommendations. For me, this significantly reduces the usefulness of the feature, as a quick glance at this on a film's page often helped me decide on how interested I was in watching it. Is there any way to adjust the settings to not filter out Watched films?

Thanks

Hello @deoli1,

I've forwarded your inquiry to the appropriate team. As soon as I have any updates on this matter, I'll get back to you. Thank you for your patience.

At the moment in the "More like this" section I see illogical and incomprehensible options.

Example: for "Friday the 13th" movie I see "A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors", "LaBouche Canalla Wins Her Snack", "Three Mirrors Creature's Flashes of Flesh" TV Mini Series and so on. I don't see any official sequel "Friday the 13th" franchize (

Same for "Annabelle: Creation" movie and so on.

For already watched films, you could go to the section and select films that had not yet been watched, and now everything is new there. It's very uncomfortable (((

Please return "More like this" section as it was before.

@denissix​ Thanks for the problem report. This was a feature being tested with only a subset of customers. Based on the feedback, we have stopped the experiment while we determine better options to balance between seen and unseen titles appearing in “More Like This.” 

Hope this helps.

I still only see unseen titles in the section.

Example: I reviewed for one movie 7 out of 12 recommendations. In “More Like This” section of this film, I now see 12 unseen titles. Choosing movies to watch with the section is very inconvenient.

@denissix​ Sorry to hear, that should no longer be happening. How are accessing IMDb (web site or which app)?
