      Why does a movie database need to be turned into social media? Even user reviews are usually asinine babbling and random users’ lists really junked up imdb imo.

      I have not tested it myself (only really know about them because of Emby scrapers) but it looks like they do

        Ah, fair point. But these aren’t searchable. You can create them and explicitly share them, but Letterboxd let’s you search by list title or list content, a key missing feature here. :/

          well, it’s an open project… perhaps we can petition this feature or contribute to get it developed

            Not to belabour the point, but open in what way? There’s no bulk data snapshots for download, the site code isn’t available. It’s owned by TiVo.
