South Korean tv/movies
Hi I know IMDB is used for a variety of useful information regarding films and tv series, but what I find frustrating is that the popularity of South Korean programming isn't showing up as much as they should in IMDB listings. I find some listings but not nearly enough to reflect the massive amou

Sub-Titles. Should IMDB include a section about how much screen time is used with sub-titles? (Example 20% French or 45% Japanese)
Sub-Titles. Should IMDB include a section about how much screen time is used with sub-titles? (Example 20% French or 45% Japanese) Is there a section on imdb.com where I can find out if a movie has sub titles? My wife hates to watch movies with subs. She doesn’t mind a few but if a film has a lot o

“Other” Category in Parents’ Guide
I think there should be an “Other” category in Parents’ Guides for things some people may find objectionable which don’t necessarily fall into the categories already present. One example of content that might go into the “Other” category would be homosexual or transgender content. You can call Ch

Add a submission item count to avoid hitting the 1,000 item per batch limit
Good Day Team Additions and corrections now working really well. Thanks Team. However, might I suggest that with the new limitation of 1000 entries per submission that there be an on page total, in order to enable a contributor to be able to check BEFORE adding too many, and then having to reduce

Thanks for the review edit button!
In researching 22 years of my reviews and going through them slowly to make edits because of lengthy paragraphs and typos, I noticed that the first hundred or so of them did not have a spoiler listed. I didn't start marking spoilers regularly until about 2006, even though I didn't start writing revi

Language attributes to be displayed
Currently, when one submits a language entry for any title, it is possible to include an attribute associated with that language. However, as discussed in the thread at https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/attributes-for-languages-displayed/61f86e2423c1

Rating / Reviewing
Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to suggest an idea of limiting rating and reviewing of motion picture on your app. I know that you support the freedom of speech and want to have many ratings and reviews on your app but there are tons of movies and shows that are just underrated or rarely overrate

Review process
Is there any way to stop first weekend reviews? It hurts movie theaters significantly when a movie like Lightyear is being review bombed because of a same-sex kiss. That's just one example. I've had multiple patrons tell me they didn't want to watch a movie because of reviews, only to love that same

There should be a section for religion on pages for people.
I was thinking of having political views as a section but that’s too abstract. But I don’t see the point of having publicity listings, video and screen clips, and star sign. It seems like too much info compared to a religion section.

Move Plot Keywords off the main page as they can be spoilers
Plot Keywords often contain spoilers. Example: transsexual showing up on "The Crying Game" effectively hints at the entire point of the movie. There are plenty of other examplesIt seems like it would be best if spoilers were not on the main page?
