New genre: youth
I've read elsewhere that adding genres is (or was) a difficult thing on IMDB, but I'd like to propose the idea of a new genre: youth. While I can see it might overlap with other genres, many youth productions are mainly that, where other categorisations of conent seem to be of less relevance.

creating memorial profiles / memorial pages for VFX artists (and others) who are no longer with us
Many talented, experienced VFX artists passed on before imdb came into existence. We'd love to be able to create memorial profiles to honor them.

Why are the Cannes Film Festival awards not listed with the other top awards?
The awards given at the Cannes Film Festival are anticipated and respected awards that have an impact on people's careers and film choices. I think it should be listed with the the top awards at the top of the page and not hidden in the alphabetical section with all the irrelevant awards. Is it poss

Parental Guide Categories
The five categories are not enough. I saw episodes of a cartoon for young children (Gon) showing the collection and consumption of wild mushrooms. Drugs was the closest, but I was leaving a life and death warning. If you cannot have a category of "dangerous behavior" or "dangerous activity" at least
