Using matching / and add favorites directors/writers
I’m not sure how the algorithm works, but I think if you implemented a matching system with other people based on their likes/dislikes that would take MovieLens to the next level.
For example, if Joe gave movies A, B, and C a 5 star rating and Karen, Tim, and Sandy also gave movie A, B, and C a 5 star rating, MovieLens should be able to identify other similarities between Karen, Tim and Sandy to give Joe a recommendation and make a list for them saying something like, “Movies people love based on your love of Movies A & B.

Optional Warrior+Wizard Recommendations Average
Of course, this could be done manually, but it would be interesting to have a way to average both The Warrior and The Wizard recommendation scores, or have a way to display both on a movie's page.

Don't publish average rating or let it make invisible in the settings
Average ratings may affect on my my personal rating sometimes. Especially when I've seen movie already. Please let this indicator be invisible in the settings. Thanks.

So I click on a movie to rate it...
And then I rate it. And then... I click back? And start back at the top of the list? Not very intuitive. Or efficient?

Wow, thanks / this and that
Firstly, I've spent lockdown day 39 trying to find a replacement for Trakt. As a subscribed pro Trakt user I am fed up with the CRAP movies it suggests to me. It thinks I am a teenage boy who loves action, horror or frat comedies. Thank the frigging lord I found you. I have also extensively tried both Letterboxd and Simkl, and none were any different from Trakt. I LOVE the way this hides stuff I have seen, I love you can hide stuff you don't want to see, for whatever reason, and I much prefer the movies it is…

sorting by least fav
rating with the least favorite movie could help engine to provide suggestion
1 voteThe ability to reverse the “recommended” sorting option should be available next update. I think this will cover your use case.

Rating comparison
A feature to compare two specific users - presumably yourself and a friend - showing general trends and differences. For instance, users may both rate 80s action movies higher, but one might always rate Stallone movies higher and another Schwarzenegger, for instance.

Charts improvements
Hi,
First of all let me tell you how helpful this website is. Thank you for your hard work!
It's a bit confusing that there's overlap of years in the "release years of your rated movies" chart. For example, there's a column for movies released between 2000 and 2005, and the next column is for movies released between 2005 and 2010. So, which column counts the movies released on 2005? The former? The latter? Both?!
Also, the "your ratings over time" could use some interactive abilities (focusing on a specific time range, filter out movies by rating, genre and release…1 vote -
Export all recommendations
Is there a way to just export the movies that are suggested that fall under "drama" for example ? Or all the recommendations and then I can filter them out - I believe I used to be able to do this on the legacy system.

Add ability to sort alphabetically (universally)
Universally across all the pages on the MovieLens website, the 'Sort by' dropdown currently does not allow members to sort the displayed category's movies alphabetically; just 4 sort options are presented: 1) recommended, 2) # ratings, 3) release date, 4) date added to MovieLens.
From time to time (but certainly not always and certainly not as the default), I'd like to view certain pages sorted alphabetically. Almost 6 years ago, a member posted the suggestion here to add the ability to sort 'My Ratings' (specifically) alphabetically ( https://movielens.uservoice.com/forums/238501-general/suggestions/6378010-add-the-ability-to-sort-my-ratings-alphabeticall ) and a few other members agreed that they'd also like the…
1 voteSorry for taking so long to get to this, We’ve been working to rewrite some of our sort logic for a while just to clean up some really messy code that was getting in the way of changes.
It actually looks like this is implemented in the backend already, so it should definitely be added to the front-end by the next update.

stats graph for release years is confusing
The stats graph for rated movies is confusing, the time frame is 5 years but subsequent bars both have years that end with 0 or 5. For example if a movie is released in 1990, it would go to both 1985-1990 bar and 1990-1995 bar. It would be better if the bars would be 1980-1984, 1985-1989, 1990-1994 etc.

Allow me to ignore certain genres
I used MovieLens many years ago when it first started, then stopped. Now I'm trying it again, but see that many of the old features are gone. It used to be possible to exclude certain types of movies (e.g. children's, horror, foreign language, etc.). At this point all I can do when I encounter a kind of movie I know I'd never want to watch is to hide it, which is time-consuming.
