The International movie database is a great site I've been spending more time browins lately full of options. Not only does it have every movie known to man but it has a list of almost all known actors, actresses, directors, and other people related to the movie industry. However what I found surprising recently was that it also has a section for almost all video and computer games with information, reviews and discussions for them.
The site can easily find a local movie theater near you and lists all the movies that are playing there thus removing the hassle of having to call and sit through long messages. It also lists the times the movies are playing and gives links to their imdb page with both user reviews on imdb and external ones by professio0nal reviewers and journalists.
IMDB is also very much of a social site with many forums not related to movies or games at all that let people discuss every day life or things they find of interest.
One of the negatives I found about imdb users is the hero or celebrity worship present among many of them. Many of thema re so cultish they defend pedophile actors/movie directors or other crimes of celebrities going as so far as making flat out lies about them to make their "hero" look good. Then there is the opposite of this and the people who simply bash someone who has a page on imdb (movie star/director/unknown actor) for almost no reason at all. I just cannot grasp why some people would defend some of these celebrities like they are part of their family or something.
