International distribution shingles
I think it would be important to list and handle International distribution shingles of American companies (and major studios) as separate entities, as they would often distribute different titles. I've seen there's lots of confusion on company websites as far as distribution goes. For example, in I

Correcting Titles
I need to get the following amendments made to the below titles but it doesn't seem to work. The old title is still showing as the large title rather than the new title which should be the main title. They should be A Bird Flew In (Alone - old title) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12543464/?ref_=nm_

Film-Noir Misconception (Among Francophones)
In French, the word "Film-Noir" has become almost unusable. That is because the average joe doesn't make the difference between Film-Noir and "Film Black". Just today, when I was using "Film-Noir" in a regular conversation with my friends, I had to explain myself for the use of the word. It would

'Stars' lists
Default title pages have a brief list of three stars from the cast at the top of the page.

sort memorable quotes sequentially as they occur within a movie.
it would be a very nice enhancement of the "memorable quotes" page to allow users to enter a "time stamp" which would identify exactly when each quote occurs within the movie. these time stamps could then be used to automatically sort the quotes so that they appear in proper sequence.

Does anyone know when Genderqueer, Transgender, or Other will be an option for the gender field on a profile?
The only options currently are "male" or "female" and one of my actors doesn't identify as either. But I can't list them without selecting a gender. Anyone know when IMDb is going to fix this?

expand number of results displayed
'Twould be nice if we could go beyond 100 items on a page when viewing a list, and beyond 250 per page on Advanced Title Search. 500, 1000, 2500, 5000, and 10000 increments sound about right.
