  1. I personally don't like that stuff it's more trivia stuff imo.
  2. That's planned YAY!!!
  3. Would totally like that, and investors and other stakeholders you know "(financial) support from Netherlands Film Fund" etc etc.

Actually aspect ratio is an important factor for film collectors to know if they have a true representation of the original presentation of the film or if it's been altered. Cropping to 1.33 (or 1.78) from the more mild theatrical ratios (VistaVision or 1.66) is usually not much of a big deal but CinemaScope films (2.35) mostly ruined.

More fields to add:

  1. For names of cast and crew, there should be a "credited as" (IMDB and Discogs both have this feature). (Sometimes things are mispelled or purposely changed.)
  2. MPAA Certifications for United States of America are presently correct but this doesn't work for older films that used previous and discontinued certifications such as "Approved", "Mature" (and of course, X, which has been for the most part replaced with NC-17, the old certifications, however, are still "out there".)

All release years before 1968 would be NR.

The certification field should perhaps take the release year into consideration and allow: 1968-1970 G (General), M (mature), R (Restricted), X (Persons Under 16 Not Admitted)

1970-1971 G, GP (Precursor to PG), R, X (Persons Under 17 Not Admitted)

1972-1984 G, PG, R, X

1984-1990 G, PG, PG-13, R, X

1990- G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17

These would all be year of that particular release, so if a film was later reissued with an updated certification, it would be reflected for that entry.

I like the historical ratings for the US, but not sure how that will be possible to get in without confusing the hell out of all users. And I'm sure many other countries have changed definitions over time as well. Travis will have to think it over.

For names of cast and crew, there should be a "credited as" (IMDB and Discogs both have this feature). (Sometimes things are mispelled or purposely changed.)

Our policy is to not add those and instead add the different names as alternative names for the person.
