| Posted: | | | | Quoting mikl: Quote: Since we're into the whole genre updating business, could we please have "Classic" removed? I don't see how anyone should be able to judge a movie as a classic. To me, it seems that a movie made before 1980 is sure to get it and especially if it is B/W. Throw it out, it has no use!
/Mikkel Agreed. If we got rid of Foreign then for the sake of consistency if nothing else we should really lose Classic as well. |

| Posted: | | | | Yeah, what is really the point with Foreign? I live in Norway, so that means that i should mark all the movies who isn't made in Norway as Foreign? I don't reaaly see the point with that. |

| Posted: | | | | Quoting Cyrille: Quote: Maybe can we delete 'Special Interest' too ? Umm...no. Special Interest includes wrestling, fighting (UFC/MMA), aerobics and exercise videos, and many other things. Absolutely no reason at all to remove this, unless you're willing to add a category for each individual "Special Interest" title. | | | "I am Andrew Ryan and I am here to ask you a question: Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his own brow?

I rejected those answers. Instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose… Rapture." |

| Posted: | | | | If Classic is removed as an online genre, I'd still like to have it as a local genre. I use it and it's handy with a large collection. Silent would be another useful genre. Mystery is good. Opera is one sorely needed. Wrestling is still sports. Tag it if you want to break it down further. Otherwise I want Baseball as a genre too. | | | "This movie has warped my fragile little mind." |

Avant Garde. Biographical, Crime, Espionage/Spy, Film Noir, Independent-Film, History/Historical, Mystery, Neo-Noir, Pulp Fiction.
BASED ON: Comic, Historical-event, Musical, Novel, Play, film (Re-make), Short-story, Song.
And also for Music I tag: Blues, Country/Western, Jazz, Latin, Opera, Pop, Swing, and Vocal | | | We don't need stinkin' IMDB's errors, we make our own. Ineptocracy, You got to love it.

| Posted: | | | | We are getting very close to a keywords system like the one on IMDB and further away from genres. I say leave it as it is. Most of the suggestions here are keywords and not genres | | | The colour of her eyes, were the colour of insanity |

| Posted: | | | | How about a SUB-GENRE entry system. A system that is only available for off line use. Customizable and able to sort your database with. This would allow for the community database to be left alone and updated as the community see's fit. | | | Video= Sony TV / Sony DVP-NC85H (DVD) / XBox 360 (HD-DVD) / PS3 (Blu-ray) / WDTV Live Plus (Haxzored) QNap Media Server with 10 Terabytes of DVD's ripped so far.

| Posted: | | | | Ken... I do use tags for this and many other things. They do help in many areas where DVDP doesn't cover in general. I guess I might be missing something with custom genres for off line use not being acceptable within DVDP. It seems like an issue that is up against the wall and has many users cringeing when even mentioned. I use genres for sorting my database so I've always considered genres as an important tool. Do you think there is any chance you might consider adding something like this (customizable or sub-genres) to DVDP for off-line/private use or is it something you know will never be implimented?

I use it and it's handy with a large collection. why? just create a tag Classic, then filter for all movies with genre Classic, press CTRL+A, menu->collection->flagged>edit tags and check the classics tag. And voila, all your Classic genre movies now have a classic tag | | | - Jan |
