I feel instantly at home on this. Just what I've been looking for too, and has huge scaling potential, features wise.
One thing, not sure about the rating system, it's not granular enough. Visually it's confusing and a little clunky and practically it's a bit to brutal to review films on just four levels of appreciation.
I've always wanted to have an online "bookshelf" of the books I've read, and ditto a video library. If you could embed your film collection on your own site with this and even choose a presentation template for it, it'd be amazing. And think about revenue you could make via netflix or amazon partnerships.

I like how it lets you slice the results. It'd be nice to integrate the review feed alongside the browsing interface.
I feel like it should be recommending things to me more as I browse.

Awesome! How did you obtain the data, btw?
Consider having the searchbar revealed even when you are on a show/movie page.
Btw, great design. I love how clean it is.

This is definitely something with a lot of potential. I can see this being useful for the Big Screen via Google Tv, Boxee, etc.
Besides the netflix integration that's obviously going to follow, I'd love to see trailers. Kind of a ytinstant for trailers integrated would be cool.

Really well done. Would you care to share about the tech behind the implementation.
Adding search suggestions for movie names/actors will give a more 'instant' feel. Also, wouldn't it be better to have a 'no image' thumbnail instead of a plain black image.

We are huge movie fans ourselves, and were frustrated with the fact that even a simple query like ‘show me the best films by Clint Eastwood’ is unanswerable by a site like IMDB.
We'd appreciate any feedback you all might have about it. Thanks.
