Top Lists Update currently lets users know about updates to IMDB lists, but it should inform of updates to other official lists as well. Even if it doesn't list every New Entry and Disappearing Title, it should at least let us know those lists have changed.

So the group pages aren't working, at least for me, I click on the name of the group and the page just loads and loads but it doesnt open anything. I really miss checking the activity or the members of the group

If one makes a search for a list that matches one film, one is automatically sent to the film's page. This can be quite bothersome

Whenever a friend recommends a movie to me, it'd be great if the recommendation was automatically added to a "Recommended by friends" list instead of getting a private message. You could lump all the recommended movies together and have a "Recommended by..." field next to each movie.

I have a few shorts in my favourites and I don't like the covers that come up for them as they look really ugly, maybe you could make the option that you can choose not to see the covers.

Not necessarily dislike, but ignore. Ignored lists should not give you notice on award updates nor should they be on the award shelf or in "progress".

Like order by closest award but for personal lists.

Thanks.

Give users the ability to recommend lists. When adding a list to "Recommended" you have to provide a short explanation to why you recommend it. This way it's easier to judge for yourself if a list is for you and it becomes less of a popularity contest like the current charts.

This could also work as a feature for movies.

See http://www.anime-planet.com/anime/flcl/recommendations for an example

bc IMDb import straight from IMDb is terribly unsuccessful (working with a huge list), usually ends in error

I check an error every time I try to use that feature and have done for months - I have no idea if any of my other friends use your service because of this.

So, now we can see at a movie site which friends have seen that flick.
It would be cool if you could go on the "Unchecked films" tab and order the films by how many friends have seen a film. That way one could see which movies are popular among friends and could be watched to have a chat about.

Maybe you are on in the mood for a movie in a certain language. Allowing to hide non-"certain language" movies from lists will make it easier to find something to watch.

I wish you had a link to the Wikipedia page of each movie. I always do this.

I'd like to search for lists that contain maximum number of movies favourited by me, normalized by total number of checked (by me) movies in that list. So the formula of "list compatibility rating" could be:
R = (F / C+10)
R - list compatibility rating
F - number of favourited movies in the list
C - number of checked movies in the list
+10 - normalizing summand

I think this feature of recommended lists would be a great companion to existing movie recommendations.

I don't always want to tell the world I just checked a movie, whether it's because it's a movie I have already seen ages ago and just remembered to check it, or simply because I don't want to spam my Facebook / Twitter with a 100 checks of shorts.

It'd be nice to have a way to check a movie without posting it to linked social networks.

Not that I don't like it but it seems to me a bit out of place, like using an old radio as main icon for www.icheckoperas.com. A film camera, just an example, would feel more appropriate.

By adding this feature, other people can filter lists on services they use (eg NETFLIX UK)
You attract more users.
because the searches on Netflix are rubbish, everyone wins.
