I just did a google for “movie information” and the results are; IMDb site Wikipedia IMDb Wikipedia Film TMDb

Back at the beginning of this year when I did the same this site didn’t even come up. I found thi site because of a comment about it on the IMDb boards. It’s a shame Wikipedia staff are such @sses about their history with this site or it would probably even higher up. IMDb didn’t happen overnight.

What is exactly the problem/beef between Wikipedia and TMDB? What do they have against TMDB?

There’s a thread about the issue that Travis posted earlier this year when these boards were opened.

I know. I read it.

The problem is that there's still no explanation to why Wikipedia just keeps ignoring TMDB.

Stubborn, arrogant people in charge.

I love TMDb and am on here every day, to one extent or another. There seems to be a large number of regular users, between the message boards frequenters and API users, etc.

It'll be great if, over time, a lot more people will settle here; I know we all miss the way it used to be on the IMDb boards (that had a gazillion users), that basically no matter how obscure a movie or series or celebrity you might post on the board of, someone, somewhere, would typically comment something back either within minutes, hours, or a week or two or three. There were always bustling discussions going, with several participants, after the airing of any t.v. series' latest episode. That, of course, was possible thanks to IMDb having millions of users. Here on TMDb I'm quite confident we have thousand of members (since this is a long-established site, with apparently lots of users, even before the IMDb exodus of February 2017), though whether there's less than 5,000 here or more, I guess only Travis knows.

By the way, I have never seen, and know nothing about, Stranger Things, but just happened to see the Subject line of this thread, was curious, so popped in to check out what is being discussed.

But why TMDB? What do they have against TMDB? They don't like the name, the colors, the owners... or what?

TMDB has the potential to be the next IMDB and it just keeps getting more and more users.

Stranger Things is a masterpiece and you need to watch it!!!
