Great site, still adding all the movies I watched.

Does anyone have a pro account? I have a CSV file with tons of movies for a watchlist that I don't want to manually enter. Is there any cool perks besides import features at the pro level?

Cool, I went ahead and got it since my "movie list file" is 635 movies haha. It got almost all of them too!

My watchlist on Letterboxd has 531 movies on it. It's fun to look for something to watch and be able to sort that whole list based on genre or decade or length.

Also, I think with a Pro account you can have the site sort by availability on all the different streaming services, which is a nice perk.

My watchlist is down to under 600 after deleting some movies I had seen but not removed and a few that weren't listed on letterbox but on youtube so I had to just save them there.

It is neat how it auto removes them when you mark them watched in other views.

It's something so small and simple* yet amazing for the convenience it provides.

*Simple as a concept, not sure if it was a pain to code or not.

Is there a way to see if a movie you are looking at is on multiple lists in your saved lists?

Basically I have a few lists with horror movies and I want to be able to see which movies are on the multiple lists I saved.

On a movie's page, if you scroll down to Popular Lists and click More, then click Everyone and change it to You, you'll see all of your lists in which the movie appears.

Sweet, thank you!

What are the most obscure movies you've rated on Letterboxd? Go to your films and sort by popularity.

Mine:

Arroseur et arrosé (1896) - watched by 19 people
Praying With Lior (2008) - watched by 15 people
A Girl of the Limberlost (1990) - 13 people
Sleeping Dogs Lie (2005) - 13 people
2000 Years Of Christianity: God And The Burdened (1999, Herzog) - 9 people
Lessons in Film (1991, Herzog) - 4 people

Modular Body - Just me and K.Waste I think
The Execution of Gary Glitter 7 people

Those are two most obscure ones. Then it's the Dead Zone remake and Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 which I wouldn't really say is obscure.

So I've been a Pro member for a couple weeks now and it's been totally worth it. The Stats page is killer. But I think the best feature is the ability to clone lists. It gives me the ability to easily check if a particular movie is on a particular list. I just clone the lists I'm interested in.

I didn't realize list cloning was Pro only. I've used that for almost every list I have in my "lists" section.

Is there a setting to make it auto-log the date for movies you watch? I always forget to check the little log box.

Question: what does the heart actually do if you slap it on during a review other than say "yes I did like it as this 5 star review also states"

Hey sometimes I don't like a movie i gave a bunch of stars to. A well made movie doesn't mean I enjoyed it!

Covid/Work From Home has me watching more movies. I'm almost averaging a movie a day after barely watching anything from Jan - March. Currently at 323 total, only 19 of those are from before the last week of March.

Going to be hard to keep up the pace now that my wife has to use our movie room for teaching kiddos though.

On the CineD discord there's a bot setup to use Letterboxd, and it can be set to follow users so their reviews pull up. That's made me write more reviews for what I watch on Letterboxd. It's a great tool!

I can't get the "own"/"owned" tag to give me a new sorting option.

It worked for me, but took a few minutes to get added to my filter options. It's also in the middle of the filter options where I overlooked it for several more minutes before realizing I'm dumb.
