Make movies sortable by length
Pretty self-explanatory. It would be nice to have movie length as an option under filters as well.
1 voteInteresting idea. I think that should be pretty do-able.

new way to sort films
honestly i dont know how thats not a feature yet - to have the ability to sort movies we havent watched yet by the rating the site predicts because the wizard prediction system is pretty good

Mobile site issues
The mobile site on chrome for iOS doesn’t work very well. I can’t advance to the next page of movie titles. Can there please be a setting to turn off artwork and see movies in list view?

Maybe a better search function
Was searching for the Movie “A Sun”. Could not find it. So I added a link from IMDb. Then “it” says the movie was already there. With a filter search I could find the movie. Not the most ideal way

Move the "clear this search" button to the left
First of all, thanks for this tool! I have been looking for something like this for a while. When I make a search using the filter tool, the most intuitive location to keep the "submit" button is on the right side from a UI perspective. It comes out of muscle memory of having the intended action on the right side of the modal. Thank you!

complementary set movies
Creating "playlists" for movies. Some ideas such as pairing the anachronistic films Knights Tale, Caravaggio and Marie Antoinette together or putting films that have all physical special effects, even connecting movies that all share a creative influence people don't often look into such as cinematographer or musical composition. When having a movie experience often a viewer will become positively biased towards an influence they don't rationally notice, something similar to this idea could help people find the magic of something they have seen in another movie even if they can't place what exactly it is.

Applying tags to multiple movies
As a new user of the site, I think the tagging feature could be improved upon by having the tagging menu not only showing the movies you've already tagged, but also giving you to possibility to add the tag to other movies as well.
For example: if I have tagged a movie with the composer John Williams, it would be a lot easier if I can assign the same tag to all his other movies by just searching for them and adding them to the tag, than having to go to each individual movie to do it the other way…

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.

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.
