You guys need to pay attention. It's great that people are taking the time to create entries for review, but we don't need all these duplicates. Check to see if someone already created a listing for the title you want to add before you upload a new listing.

Of the titles that I submitted, only 1.1% were duplicates. The mods already know about these.

Like I said, your time and effort is appreciated. I'm sure you agree with me that it's a great resource, and a moment of time spent prior to uploading beats having a bunch of duplicated title listings.

Thanks. I put in 272 titles yesterday, and prior to starting I made a listing of what was already submitted (there were a relatively small number at that time, something like 8 or 9). Looks like about 3 titles snuck in after I had started. Every once in awhile I'd check to see if any were submitted by looking at the last page or so of new titles, and didn't catch those three, and kept on going. I'm sure the mods will fix the duplicates.

I submitted The Army of Darkness twice since one is a combo and the re-issue will not be a combo. If it's the same transfer I guess one of the entries can be deleted.

Maybe it would help to refine the serach function a little bit. When I search for "Planet Earth" I get rather weird resonses like "Superman, Scary Movie...". It looks like the Search funtion looks as well into the description as it does into the title. I would prefer a search that checks only the titles.

The other option to search, to search for all movies that start with a certain letter, appears to be rather useless. When I click on P, I get stuff like "Manchurian Candidate, Reds, Nacho Libre, Four Brothers....". You have to go through four pages of movies that probably all have a p somewhere in their description to find Planet Earth.

And maybe it would help if there would be a list that fits onto one page, that contains all the titels in alphabetical order (and I would love to have a button to change the order according to the average overall rating... maybe another button for an order according to the average picture quality rating).

Just my 2 cents.
