Suggestion: Allow imdb harvesting of video game data

SnappySneezer 18 years, 6 months ago at Dec 20 16:54 -
I was recently adding in some Captain America material from imdb and saw that they had a video game I owned that was not listed and I had not yet submitted information for. Since it was there I went ahead and added it to see what would happen and it is now listed with my films. imdb lists video games now so, perhpas we could use that as a template for some things. The game was Captain America & the Avengers.:

imdb.com/title/tt0421939/
www.listal.com/viewproduct/movies/62416

Also, should tvmovies and pilot only programs, specials be TV or movie? They seem to go in as movies, they do not seem tobe listed at imdb with"".

Data is already gathered from amazon so I don't want to have an additional data source to prevent further duplicates. There are actually duplicates at the moment but I will be sorting these out soon.

If anything does not exist on amazon (like older games) you can enter it through the games section and the add link.

To detect for tv shows I currently check for the tv logo as shown here :

www.imdb.com/title/tt0411008/

I think people prefer tv movies in movies but would welcome other opinions.
