Repeatedly Declined Release Date Corrections – Tony's Loop (2025 → 2026) – Request for Manual Review

Hello IMDb Support Team,

I am the writer, director and producer of the Belgian feature film "Tony's Loop", produced by Welibach Pictures.

I am requesting a manual staff review of several incorrect release dates that have remained on our IMDb title page despite repeated correction requests.

Our most recent submission, reference #261107-002908-147000, was declined, with reasons including "Does not meet contribution guidelines" and "Duplicate".

The film currently contains release dates from 2025, including entries for Belgium and Turkey. These dates were originally planned but subsequently cancelled. No public screenings, theatrical releases, streaming releases or other public distributions took place in 2025.

The first public screening is officially scheduled for 19 December 2026 at 20:00, during Film Fest Antwerp at Kinepolis Antwerpen, Belgium.

This is explicitly advertised by the festival as the film's World Premiere.

Independent verification from the official festival website:

Official world premiere screening:
https://www.filmfestantwerp.be/en/block/tony-s-loop-van-r-kan-albay-wereld-premiere

The festival independently identifies the film as a 2026 production and confirms the scheduled world premiere.

I am not requesting the removal of valid historical release information. These 2025 releases never occurred.

I respectfully request that an IMDb staff member manually review and correct the release date records so that:

1. The incorrect 2025 release dates are removed.

2. The first release date is recorded as Belgium – 19 December 2026 (Film Fest Antwerp).

3. The film's displayed title year is updated from 2025 to 2026.

The incorrect year is particularly concerning because it may create confusion regarding the film's world premiere status, festival eligibility and international distribution.

Thank you for reviewing this matter. I can provide additional verification from the festival organisers or production company if required.

Kind regards,

R. Kan Albay
