Make recommendations based on lists not neighbours
Instead of using neighbours to generate favourites, figure out which lists I like and make recommendations based on those.

Import ratings from IMDb.
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.

Multiple Favorite Lists
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"

Make it possible, when comparing profiles, to look at another user's progress on unofficial lists, not just official ones.
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".

Create a tag for short films
Having a separate "medatype:short" tag, instead of grouping all shorts with feature films under "mediatype:movie", would often make searching/filtering easier.
9 votesThis is something we’re looking into. We’d like to use all IMDb mediatypes as tag (also documentary for example)

Add the ability to compare watchlists with a friend and display movies you both want to see but haven't checked.
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.

Creation an option to customize your progress tab.
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.

Settings to Edit the Main-Page (suggest movie at first page etc.)
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".

make it possible to order the movies on a list according to their IMDB rating.
Especially helpful on filmographies and lengthy lists with very few checks.

Integrate Streaming Services
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.

Make a way to Rank your Entire List
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).

go back to the previous compare profile feature
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.

Recommend films from a selction of lists
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.

Favorites sorting helper (Flickchart-style)
This might be way outside the scope of iCM, but it'd be a very valuable addition for me (and others who are as anal about the perfect order of their top lists as I am).
In essence, I'd like to be able to compare two movies against eachother and pick which one I like better, eventually creating my final favorites list.
Flickchart already does this, but it has to learn which movies you've seen first (which takes thousands and thousands of clicks through movies) and it starts without bias (meaning for the first hundreds of votes some random movie could…5 votes -
Improve the recommendations
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.
