Title pages — new version available for sneak peek
IMDb is working on updates to the Title page. The new version of the page is mobile-responsive, meaning all features are available on devices of all sizes, and has a modern look and feel — otherwise it maintains all the functionality of the current page, though some features have moved on the page.
The new version of the page is available to a limited group of fans during a beta period. During the beta, some features are still under construction, and you may encounter bugs.
UPDATE: now available!

Hi!
In this anime episode (Horimiya episode 1.2) I can not find the Review section. No one reviewed it before, so it is understandable that I can't find it easily. Anyway I reported the issued but, selecting the option "something is missing", I was not able to specify what is missing. Hopefully writing this here is the right thing to do.
Have a nice day!

Okay, just for a summary before I get into my case. Earlier I wrote this on one of my previous posts on this topic:
- When I'm searching for a company, a keyword or anything else, I only get matches for titles and actors/actresses, which I did not search for. I hope that gets fixed if we are automatically thrown into the new version.
- When I click on the button that's supposed to take you to alternate titles for other countries, the release dates are the only thing that shows up. I hope that gets fixed if we are automatically thrown into the new version.
Now I really know why this happens: The IMDb system sometimes forces me into the mobile version. Are you serious? I'm using desktop PC, not a mobile device. So please, let not only me, but others decide what version to use: Either the www-version or the mobile (m) version.
I'm 100% sure a lot of IMDb users know this from before since the beginning, but I feel I have to tell this anyway. Since bderoes asked me to post links if I should find anything, now I found pretty much, so now I can put up links with pleasure. This is also for anyone new to this topic.
I searched for a keyword featuring the word "blood", and the website should look like this:
https://www.imdb.com/find?s=kw&q=Blood&ref_=nv_sr_sm
The mobile version that only has titles and actors with "blood" on the name, but not keywords, is here:
https://m.imdb.com/find?s=kw&q=Blood&ref_=nv_sr_sm
And so, whenever I search for a company, let's say Universal Pictures to name an example, the website should look like this:
https://www.imdb.com/find?s=co&q=Universal+Pictures&ref_=nv_sr_sm
The mobile version doesn't have the company and only has titles with similar names, and looks like this:
https://m.imdb.com/find?s=co&q=Universal+Pictures&ref_=nv_sr_sm
The desktop version of "Parents guide" looks like this:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11146230/parentalguide?ref_=tt_stry_pg
while the tiresome mobile version looks like this:
https://m.imdb.com/title/tt11146230/parentalguide?ref_=tt_stry_pg
For Alternate titles, the desktop version is the thing, using "Kill Bill : Vol. 1" as an example:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0266697/releaseinfo?ref_=tt_dt_dt#akas
Not this mobile version that only shows release dates:
https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0266697/releaseinfo?ref_=tt_dt_dt#akas
So sometimes when I search for a keyword, a company, or even titles and anything else, I sometimes get automatically thrown to the mobile version, so I must change the M to WWW several times. And that is just tiresome. So please, just let me just keep the WWW version, and stop automatically throwing me into the mobile version. And just like I said earlier: Using the IMDb on a mobile device is not gonna happen for me, as I'm only sticking with my PC. And I'm not going outdoors and public areas (cafes, workplaces, etc.) just to look at my iPhone with internet, because I have a goal whenever I'm outside my home, just to have that said: Meeting friends, doing librarian works, eating lunch, shopping, etc.
Anyway, I'm sorry if I sound harsh. Thank you.
Sincirely, Chribren.

An absolutely HORRENDOUS Desktop website 'redesign!', clunky, blocky, sluggish, massive tiled interface, all obviously dumbed down and made to look like a 'phone screen' for f'inger pointing', it looks like its been designed for toddlers! this then inflicted onto Desktop users looking for a more advanced user experience. Completely UNUSABLE on DESKTOP!.
As soon as that absolite GARBAGE is inflicted onto Desktop users im DONE with IMDB!

Okay, I know this design is still being sorted out, but some links on the main title page aren't working right or link to a mobile-designed page (with the m in the link), and on external sites the links aren't working.
I hope this gets sorted out as fast as possible.

Despite using two columns for cast, where it was one previously, the spacing means there is an awful lot of scrolling to see all the page content.
I'm disappointed with two aspects I use on every film I see. Check-in and rating. Check-in used to be a mouse-over, and one click. Now it's a click - but not obvious where, followed by a second click, but not obvious where. Definitely a backward step.
Rating would show you how many stars you were about to give something, before you committed. Now you have to carefully count before you click - hardly progress! :-(

I stopped going to the main page because the page, all the information seems very large and zoomed in. It's ridiculous. I have my bookmark for IMDB set to the News section because I can't stand how big everything is on the page. The scrolling right to left is fine I guess. Going to the new pages for TV Shows/Movies is like going on to a social media site now. The cast looks like you're scrolling through someone's facebook and they are the friends. Old layout was perfectly fine. Everything could be found without scrolling a page and a half. It's too busy, too much information on the front page. Like, I don't mind clicking on something to read more about it. It just looks really silly and cluttered.

The problem I am having is that the as you can see when you right click on the old IMDB site I have what is called Save Image As on the new IMDB site I do not have that option and a lot of other stuff is missing from the new site when you right click on the picture. I am working on creating a database for movies that I want and I am adding the image of the movie to this database. Is there a way this can be added back. See the two images below.

You don't know that this looks horrible on desktop? I can't believe I even have to make this comment.

I can't believe you need me to tell you how horrible this is. You can't just look at it on a desktop and see that it doesn't work?
Shameful.

"urgh! what the hell is this piece of crap?" Honest reaction to IMDB's future page design. Like, "urrgh!" Whiteness, more bright than the sun, on scroll, after a pitch, 'dark side of the moon' black, on-page-open? smh. Fire the web designer, right now! Kidding, but not really. WTH? ... Using the same manerisms as Family Guy's Consuela...."no no no no no no".

Is there some reason Keywords are not labeled as such?
