PSA: Box Office Mojo Redesign ... Numbers Saves The Day With Theater Counts

[Blankments]

And it's horrible.

 

The longfeared IMDb future has arrived, and it's ugly, inaccessible, and very bad.

[Jake Gittes]

This is evil.

[Ezen Baklattan]

Fucking Amazon.

No more calendar view for dailies

All time records split up in multiple tabs, not sure if anything is missing yet

 

Top grossing months isn't in any kind of discernible order.

 

One improvement is the release calendar, you can go back to any month/year you want:

Leaving design aside, data seems better, has many countries in International tab. Cool.

Oh god. The mobile version is unusable

 

[Blankments]

genres are gone

 

Joker confirmed to be the last controversial film ever

[Brainbug]

Sauron has won. Darkness fell upon us.

Have to have IMDb Pro to access studios' pages.

i think it looks fine. the imdbpro branding all over it makes me wonder if they're gonna eventually try to move all of it over there though.

The data is still there at least but it's so much more difficult to navigate now. Oh IMDB, ya had to completely mess with a good thing.

All time domestic, worldwide and opening weekend charts only showing the top 200 movies.

The mobile website (I am on mobile 99% of the time) sucks. And I hope they get the theatre count section up soon and that it hasn't been completely removed.

seems like you can only get weekend numbers in the international section though. like i can't find any sort of page for yearly grosses in the UK for example.

Congratulations IMDb for taking a quaint but functional site used by people in the industry and turning into an eyeball assault.

 

Bonus points for locking content behind a paywall too, and it seems outright deleting stuff like theater counts. 

[Barnack]

One obvious advantage that I would imagine:

 

Rarely down/partially inaccessible instead of almost always (request like showing adjusting failed like 50% of the time for me)

i can't look for an actor's box office?
