I loved this site at first. It's so fun to add your own films to this and see them appear on sites like Letterboxd, however, shortly after adding my films, they were all taken down due to the ridiculous guidelines about no amateur content including fan-films or short-films, unless for for rare circumstances (like a proper release, which two of my films actually have, despite both being taken down). First off, requiring an official release for a short-film/fan-film to even qualify for the site in the first place is actually very telling that this site doesn't want us small independent filmmakers to succeed, as it limits our opportunities in the film and entertainment industry. This policy is targeting those of us who may not have the resources and connections available to have an official release of their film. I might also add that because this policy targets independent filmmakers like myself as I just stated, it is also disproportionately affecting other minority groups such as African-American and Queer filmmakers, as they likely have even less access to these resources and connections that someone like I do. Despite the moderators claiming my films were taken down because the site doesn't allow amateur content, I am forced to believe it was actually due to some other reason as ONLY my films/short-films/fan-films were taken down, not any of the countless other short-films. Specifically, my fan-film "Hawkeye: The Broken Arrow" was removed, however, they kept up the other 2 Hawkeye fan-films, which means the moderators were specifically targeting me and my films as opposed to all ametuer content like the mods claimed. As of a couple days ago, the moderators finally took down those other previously mentioned Hawkeye fan-films yet still have up all the other star wars fan-films, DC fan-films and even amateur YouTube content which again leads me to believe that the only reason those other 2 Hawkeye fan-films were taken down was to try and appease me I called them out for taking down "Hawkeye: The Broken Arrow". After this extensive research I have no choice but to believe The Movie DataBase is actually discriminating against me based on the fact that I am of a minority group as I suffer from autism, among several other conditions. I request that The Movie Database reinstate my films immediately, these being - Hawkeye: The Broken Arrow (2024) - Traeh (2023) - Boston Vice (2024) - The Revelation (2021) - DOOKU A Star Wars Story: Becoming Darth Tyranus (2021) - Pohlster the Movie (2021) - The Slip Up (2019) or I will be doing it myself, by creating new versions of my films to add, two of which now do have an official release, so if they are taken down a second time I will know.

This site is so easy to use. User friendly, clean interface and without clutter, Most importantly, no advertisement junk (unlike IMDB)! Which means it loads up quickly. It would be great to have a permanent search box instead of needing to click on the magnifying glass on every search. Well done TMBD, keep up with the good work.

If the movie you're looking for is cookie cutter Hollywood tripe, then this site is great... Anything else then abusive mods rule with an iron fist, and lash out at those who speak against them. If you spend time adding an independent release (even those held in high regard and are widely known), it will almost certainly be removed. I hate the fact so many other sites use this pathetic excuse for an "Movie and TV database" as the source of truth..

This website is the last bastion of freedom of speech where reviews aren't censored and deleted because of different views unlike the remaining similar websites (IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes). There's no point going on IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes, because those sites are corrupted, racist & heavily biased. Just stick with this website if you don't want your review to be deleted. If majority of us will migrate on this website, eventually websites like IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes will shrink & it will be punishment for them.

The site needs a lot of work... but it doesn't censor like IMDB, you can write a review on it and the review stays up. So, given that there aren't many places that allow honest reviews any longer, I'm saying it's tops... ... despite the fact that some aspects need work.

I like this website. It is a good website to review movies and shows alongside IMDB.

I created my TMDB account in 2021. I upload my IMDb votes file to it every now and then. TMDB is a decent website and is a work in progress as there's so much more info to add for each film and TV show.

There was an extremely popular movie that has gotten almost 10 million views this week and the website just deleted the whole page. They also deleted all the pages related to the cast + crew, and I opened a thread in the support section asking why they are deleting all these topics and they deleted that too. They deleted every single movie by a film maker! Pages that had been up for ages. I don't trust anything to do with this company now. They didn't even have the decency to reply to my support thread.
