Not getting a review-denied response, leaves people unaware...

Not getting a review-denied response, leaves people unaware that they need to give their review another go,.. ... and that's even if expecting (unreasonably) that they will be necessarily able to work out what they did wrong. Having to keep copies yourself, should not be necessary, if IMDB just kept

Avoiding duplicate images

So the system can recognize that an image is a duplicate when I upload an image twice. Note: when I first thought to write this the first image uploaded was still pending. Not sure if that matters. So can't the eggheads on staff somehow tweak the algorithms so that the system can recognize a duplica

We need an image gallery overhaul. I cannot be the only person having problems with how the image galleries are structured and organized.

When it comes to popular TV series (and to a lesser extent ... popular movies) and their (literal) unmanageable thousands and thousands of images in their respective image galleries? I.

Major keyword problem that needs attention

I am a male feminist, and there are many keywords that should NOT be allowed.

Hi there, I was looking for an old movie for Joseph Sweeney from 1918 called Sylvia on a spree, but after some researchers, I found out that it was lost, so I suggest that for any lost movie, we mention this as a tag for example or section for itself indicating that so people won't go outside and st

Add "Where it was originally available"

With all of the new options out there (eg. Paramount+, Discovery+, DisneyPlus, etc..) sometimes it's hard to find where the TV show or movie may reside. For example, I was watching "Undercover Billionaire" and was able to watch the first 4 episodes there (via Discovery on Hulu), but since the first

Have you wondered how to pronounce a movie star's name when you are reading their IMDb listing?

Wouldn't you love to hear an actor say their own name on IMDb's actor listing pages? Please add a clickable audio file to Amazon's IMDb.com actor listings, with each actor saying their own name? For instance, how is Djimon Hounsou pronounced? Another one is Chiwetel Umeadi Ejiofor? I think being abl

voice over artist credit

I cant believe that IMDB does not include voice over artist in their professional choices. I find this outrageous and have asked them to include it but they wont do it without community support it seems so please add your support to this important positive change needed for their site. Thanks in hop

IMDb Answers should have the ability to provide proof

Since additions are always so easy to be approved and IMDb Answers seeks for additions, this has a danger of creating more unreliable data imo. Because corrections are always so much harder than additions. Maybe also make it so that data that is contributed via IMDb answers feature is not that hard
