Introducing IMDb Discussions (Beta) — Join the conversation!

 

We're excited to announce the Beta launch of IMDb Discussions; a new way to connect with fellow fans right here on IMDb. IMDb Discussions let you connect with other fans on select IMDb Interest pages. Share your thoughts, react to posts, and join conversations about the movies, TV shows, franchises, and topics you love.

 

Who can access it?

IMDb Discussions is currently available to users in the US and Canada as part of a limited Beta. You'll need to be signed in to an IMDb account to read and participate. Don't have an account? You can create one at imdb.com/registration/signin.

 

If you're already an Amazon customer, you can sign in with your Amazon account. If available in your location, Amazon customers will be automatically signed into IMDb.com with your existing Amazon account. For more information see our guide.

 

Where to find it

Discussions are available on select Interest pages. Look for the Discussions tab on the page.

The feature is live today on these six Interests:

• Marvel

• DC

• The Hunger Games

• Horror

• Period Drama

• Dark Fantasy

More Interests will be added in the coming weeks. Got an Interest you'd love to see? Let us know in the comments below!

 

What can you do in Discussions?

 

• Start a topic — Go to the Discussions tab on any supported Interest page, select "Start a topic", type and submit your post.

• Reply — Select Reply beneath any post to join the conversation. Your reply appears nested under the original.

• React — Tap the reaction icon on any post to share how you feel.

• Mention titles and names — Type @ and start typing to mention an IMDb Title or Name page directly in your post.

• Flag spoilers — Use the Spoiler warning toggle when posting plot-sensitive content, so other fans can choose whether to reveal it.

 

Community Guidelines

To keep IMDb Discussions a fun and welcoming space for everyone, all participants are expected to follow our Community Guidelines:

• Be respectful. Treat others with kindness and respect. Personal attacks, harassment, or discriminatory language (about race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or any other characteristic) aren’t welcome here.

• Stay on topic. Keep discussions relevant to the topic being discussed. Avoid derailing conversations with unrelated topics.

• Use spoiler tags. When discussing major plot points like character deaths or endings, use spoiler tags to protect the entertainment experience of others. That way, you and other fans can engage in discussions spoiler-free!

• Protect privacy. Don't share personal or identifying information (phone numbers, emails, or physical addresses) - yours or anyone else's.

• No links or spam. Don't post external (non-IMDb) URLs, promotional content, advertisements, or spam of any kind.

• No impersonation. Don't impersonate any person or entity (e.g. including "IMDb" in usernames or profile images).

• Write in English. Posts in IMDb Discussions should be in English only. Posts in unsupported languages will not be posted.

 

Posts that violate our community guidelines will be removed, and repeat violations may result in suspension of your ability to participate in IMDb Discussions.

 

What does "Beta" mean?

Beta means this feature is still in active development and available to a limited group of users before a wider release. You may encounter bugs, or notice things changing over time, that's part of the process. Your feedback directly shapes where we take this feature, so please share your thoughts in the comments below.

 

The Beta does not have a fixed end date. We'll move to a full release when we're confident the feature is working well and delivering a great experience. When we do, everything you posted during Beta (your posts, replies, and reactions) will carry over automatically.

 

We're so excited to bring this to the IMDb community and can't wait to see the conversations that unfold.

 

Head over to one of the six Interest pages above and say hello!
