While we apparently don’t post on this blog as often as we should, we always have a lot of things going on around IHM. We’ve got users always logging in, rating, categorizing and generally sharing what they think of the films around them. All this hustle and bustle creates quite a lot of data for us to see. So, I figured maybe a few people would be interested in some of the things we’ve found when looking at that data.
I’ll break down some basic data points in groups to show trends that we’ve noticed in the database. While I’ll avoid specifics (it’s none of your beeswax man), you’ll still get a good general feel for what’s being presented. If you’ve got questions, please hold them until the end of the demonstration and then we’ll be more than happy to be of assistance. Also, ask away on any other stats you’d like to see and maybe we’ll throw some more bones your way.

Hello fellow IHMers,
We’re writing you today to let you know about the release of some new features including one of our best features so far.
Organize your life with our New Collection
The first feature is, of course, the new collection management tool that you have gotten to preview over the last week. If you haven’t figured out by now, with this tool you’ll be able to easily manage your entire electronic collection (all the films and tv shows you have rated). We added searching, sorting, formatting and mass editing to the collection utility. The new collection tool should also be much faster for those (after loading) with a slower connection as we will be processing updates in the background. If you haven’t check it out, all you need to do is login and visit the collection page.
Show off your collection with the Flare Page
We have also created some nice “flare” for your personal pages that you can use to link back to your collection or profile. If you check out the flare page, you will be taken to the page offering all the different banner and image options along with code to place them on your blog, website or Myspace page. Feel free to put these on your pages to let people know how much you love movies.
Catch your movie news on the Movieblog
While we have not done much as far as publication for this next addition, it has been around for a few months. We have been writing about movies and movie news everyday (along with some great contributors) over on the IHM Movieblog. This blog allows you to get some sneak peeks at trailers, on set pictures or movie news in general. If you are a fan of movies and like to read or talk about them, you should check out the Movieblog.
Let your voice be heard, Write for Us!
We’re looking to get even more people’s opinions and thoughts on movies heard. If you think you can write about movies or are that person in your group of friends always spreading movie news, you’re perfect for our blog. If you think you are up to it, let us know.
Get your changes made when you Contact us!
We spend a lot of time behind the scenes making updates and changing things for the better. If you are confused or have questions about how something works, feel free to contact us. We also are always open to hearing ideas or suggestions you have about our site (so much so that we have even created a special ideas email address for you to pass them to us). And of course, you can always reach us via IHM messages. See the about page to find the admin’s pages.
Thanks for all your support,
The IHM Staff
If you didn’t know, The Dark Knight releases next Thursday in the U.S. It’s supposed to be the movie event of the year and we’re sure as hell not missing out on it. Realizing how big of a deal this movie is and how stoked we are to check it out, we’re assuming you’re just as ready to see it too.
So, we’re doing a bit of a meetup type thing for the opening. While we’re not going to the official first showing for the film due to some scheduling conflicts, we’ll be hitting up a showing on Friday, July 18th at 9:55pm at NCG Trillium in Grand Blanc, MI. We’re doing the IMAX showing, so it’s definitely going to be an experience.
For those who have been wanting to check this out, this will definitely be a great time to do so. You’ll get to see a great movie and hang out and talk about movies with us in person.
If you’re at all interested in attending, post a comment here or send me an email (mike@iheartmovies.org) and I’ll get you some more details. If you’re wanting to see how close you are to the theater, here’s a google map with info. You’ll probably want to grab tickets ahead of time so that you don’t miss out too.
We’ve been receiving a lot of feedback with Collection and we plan on doing a major update to fix several bugs on July 13th. This update will address the following issues. Please post any bugs/issues/questions or suggestions in the comments for this post.
Issues to be resolved:
- Apostrophes for either saved list name or description breaking loading of collection.
- Options menu/edit overlay not opening on titles with Watched Dates
- Loading time for users collection will be drastically improved
- Activity not being posted on title updates
Additions:
- The ability to add titles right into collection, from collection, no having to leave the page or go to the browse page. Will make adding titles, hopefully much easier.
