I loved this site until I realized how discriminatory it is
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

Unexplained Removal of Documentaries
I am disappointed with themoviedb org for deleting several documentaries from their database without providing any explanation This action suggests an implicit bias as it appears films are being removed based on subjective criteria This practice is concerning for a platform that should aim to be an inclusive and comprehensive movie database One star due to these unexplained removals

I am targeted by moderators and they ignore my corrections
My account on TMDb was Movie Mosaic my contribution was about 80 000 points up there until a movie called Wicked City 1992 from Hong Kong I tried to explain to the non-Hong Kong moderators how the English translated title is THE Wicked City instead of Wicked City I had proof - links from IMDb rottentomatoes HKMDb etc yet they kept ignore me and refuse to make a correction I doubted them for being less considerate with Asian cinema consider they have not even watched the movie Next thing I know my beloved account was suspended right before I was gonna delete it myself I tried to send some emails to explain my situation but often not get feedback and TMDb doesn t even have an email address for such issue to report I want to move on but since my account is under suspension I can t even delete it and I tried to open a new account which I didn t know they don t allow it - I did not even spoke about the issue again I behaved nicely yet I still got suspended by somebody from the site understandable but now it is getting personal as I believe I am targeted by them I do not tolerate such abuse especially that all I was trying to do was making a movie s information correct to help the site But they do not care about information apparently I m just wasting my life trying to find a place to share my unfair experience And I really hope I get to speak with someone in charge of the issue as Wicked City is still an incorrect title I have nothing against TMDb although it s full of mistakes especially with Hong Kong cinema but the moderators truly angered me with their attitude and left me no choice but coming here for help I demand to either resume my account or simple delete it for good and let me move on But most importantly add THE to the wicked city because that s the correct title and that s what TMDb should be focusing on instead of targetting me

Nonsense censorship
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

Pathetic
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

Last Bastion of Freedom of Speech
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

At least it doesn t censor
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
