Instead of using neighbours to generate favourites, figure out which lists I like and make recommendations based on those.

It would be great to be able to import your own personal rating for a film from IMDb. Moreover, if we could see what our friends gave certain films, that would be even better.

Allow users to make multiple private favorite lists when using the "favorite" option. A small drop down menu could give users the options to add movies to a specific list of their own.

Eg.: "Mark movie as favorite in list...
Favorite Films
Favorite Animation
Favorite 1930s"
etc.

Not each of the thousands of unofficial lists, but have a button on the user's profile page "view his/her progress on your favorite/watchlist lists".

Having a separate "medatype:short" tag, instead of grouping all shorts with feature films under "mediatype:movie", would often make searching/filtering easier.

This would be very helpful for picking films for a movie night with friends - personally I would find this more useful than being able to compare checked movies.

Preferably, the same feature could be applied to recommended movies.

Users could choose which lists will become official. The lists could be nomited by the administrators or users (from their personal lists)

Instead of just text, display the items checked in a list with cover images.

Like in ICM 1.0. So you have an option to chose which list you (don't) want to see. And if it's at all possible I would like complete tabs to be removable (e.g. the IMDB-tab). Not that you would lose all those checks mind you but just make it invisible.

One way to discover new and good movies.

I will always see this message at main-page

"Need more friends? You can find your online friends from other sites or you can add friends manually. "

bcs I didnt add any friends I dont use ICM to find my friends or see what movie they like I just want to discover new movies.

So I would like to have a personal settings for main-page, like a 'random movie' or 'movie suggestion list' instead of "Here's what your friends have been up to lately".

Especially helpful on filmographies and lengthy lists with very few checks.

If a movie is available on any streaming service (Amazon, Crackle, Hulu, Netflix, etc.) provide a button on the movie's page to watch it on the service of the user's choosing.

The one feature that is lacking for me, is an easy way to rank the entirety of my list. Perhaps it would be a hybrid of something similar to Flickchart (comparing 2 films at a time) and being about to manually rank them myself. (Or maybe the option to rank within each year, genre, etc.)

I love that I has this huge master list of all the movies I've seen, but I wish there was a streamlined way to rank them (as opposed to doing it manually over 2500 movies).

In ICM 1.0, when you wanted to compare your profile to a friends, you had all the lists (with the icons) subdivised in 2 bars, one for your self, one for you friend. It was much clearer than the actual setting "You lose by X checks", to my opinion.

Allow user to highligh a number of lists they wish to make progress on and then ask icm to recommend films. The site would then return recomendations favoring films that appear in the most of the users chosen lists.

Currently it seems like recommendations are influenced way too much by the amount of checks a movie has. (Maybe that's the fault of the Neighbor algorithm though, not sure). As I disliked 5 of the 6 Star Wars movies, it still recommended me the last one. I think the criteria should be a lot more focused on a combination of your favorites and dislikes compared against those of others.
