Stuck my head into IMDB for the first time in a while and maybe I'm just paranoid but I think there's a pervasive LLM stench in the reviews.

@timbray It's been years since IMDB had any information I wanted that wasn't easier to get from Wikipedia. I use the uBlacklist extension to block IMDB from my search results. https://iorate.github.io/ublacklist/docs

@jwz @timbray

Many, many years ago you could download the Internet Movie Database to your local #Amiga from Aminet. They would post regular diffs to keep you up to date.

(IIRC this was culled from rec.movies or whatever, but it’s been a while.)

I never had a big enough HDD to make it feasible (nor a fast enough connection), but so long as you don’t need any movie newer than ~2003, you can still download everything: https://www.aminet.net/misc/imdb
