  6. I am trying to reply to a topic on a forum about what can be included in The Movie Database (as opposed to IMDb) and it is getting flagged, which is annoying since the last post includes this nonsensical claim:

    > Distribution/release is an essential fact about the existance of a movie- a movie has to have some type of distribution/release (otherwise the movie literally doesnt exist).

    I thought I might be hitting filters because I mentioned the name of a documentary about The Rolling Stones called ********** Blues. I tried censoring the word but it still didn't get through.

    My other examples were Humor Risk (Marx-bros 1921) and The Day the Clown Died (Jerry Lewis 1972).

    These three movies are of course included on TMDB but don't actually exist according to the criteria laid out by this user. In fact if we go by the formal rules set by TMDB they should be deleted. I was trying to suggest that there should be alternative methods of approving a title.

    What prompted the discussion was that the documentary Listers: A Glimpse Into Extreme Birdwatching (2025) is not included. It was dumped on YouTube. A lack of distributor might suggest it is the work of amateurs. But. Because actual film critics have responded very favorably to the movie I think the real reason why it didn't get a "proper" release is because executives didn't see a way to make money from a weird documentary about bird-watching.

    I suggested a criteria that doesn't actually apply to Listers right now but might in the future. If a film has three reviews by approved critics on Rotten Tomatoes it should be seen as noteworthy enough to be included. I have to note that I don't think RT is a good place to decide which movies to watch but they try to approve only serious critics.

    Evidently some people think that the opinions of film critics don't matter, at all.

  19. In the 1990s my main guide to film was a copy of #LeonardMaltin's Movie Guide. I used it to find out about movies by my favorite actors and directors. I literally read through the entirety of my first copy and marked which films I'd seen.

    I didn't always agree with Maltin but if he gave a movie three and a half or four stars I thought it was worth tracking down while most movies he rated one and a half stars or BOMB (Bottom Of The Barrel) were safe to ignore (unless someone I trusted contradicted his opinion).

    I am curious if #FilmBuffs from the era (80s-90s) had the guide (poll) and also what they thought of it (comment).

  21. “One advantage to growing older is having more opportunities to reassess and reflect. This isn’t only a matter of understanding and/or judging what one sees: it’s also a matter of evaluating why one has seen certain films and not seen certain others….” — Jonathan Rosenbaum

  22. Apart from the music I liked
    *Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves* more than the similar *Guardians of the Galaxy*. The former is entertaining #Fantasy, the latter is entertaining but not #ScienceFiction
