Sortta missing titles?

I have a few movies here that I am trying to add to my movie list. They are listed in the movie data base, but when you click on them and it takes you to the releases found page, the page is blank. Could you fix this please? The movies are
1. Dr. Seuss How the Grinch Stole Christmas
2. The Seeker
3. Day Watch
4. Feast of Love
5. Descent with Rosario Dawson
6. Death at a Funeral

THANK YOU

Can I get any help with this problem? Still missing is 2,3,4, and 5.

Henning, John, others...what criteria is required to do this sorta thing? Let me know as I can help if it's not too crazy.

Thanks, Falcon. I'll pass along your message to Henning. It's hard finding people to do the backstage work at the site. Adding titles to the database is probably a more time-consuming chore than you'd believe, so lots of people volunteer and then back out.

John

falcon,

it's actually a huge pain adding titles to dvdtown's database, and as you and many others have observed, many titles are missing from the database. therefore, you're not going to want to help without being paid a substantive amount of money ($5 a month for many hours of work is serfdom).

i come here for two reasons:

1) to read reviews by john and chris

2) to chat with john, chris, and tim in the message boards. at one point in time, there were a lot of cool folks here, but they have been driven away by blu-ray and hd-dvd chodes.

Well at my job I have spare time every once in a while so I end up being on this site regularly throughout my shift.

How long does it take to add a movie to the database? Half hour? Give me the basics of what needs to be done so I have an idea.

It's do-able for me while I'm at work but when I'm at home not so much.

Let me know.

Falcon,

I've passed your message along to Henning. Thanks much for volunteering to help out.

Usually, once you hang of it, it takes about ten minutes to add a single title to the database. It requires that you manually add each detail, usually from a studio press site, and then add the artwork (cover art in small, medium, and large sizes), which has to be downloaded from the press site, resized, and added to the database.

Still missing Day Watch, Descent with Rosario Dawson, Feast of Love, and The Seeker. Thank You! kelley2002

Kelley,

Did you add these titles on the "Release Request" form at "My Dashboard"? Just add a note that they are in the database but come up blank. It means somebody added the movie titles to the database but not the release details.

John

Of course I put them on a Release Request page right along with the other 150 movies that I have that have not been added yet. I know you guys are extremely busy and are working as fast as you can to add these and I appreciate it. Thank you for looking into this matter. kelley2002

I just added Day Watch. I'm working on Descent now.

Descent is now added with Day Watch. However, it might not show up for a few hours, though. The servers update periodically so sometimes even though something is added, it might not be visible until later on.

Added Feast of Love.

The Seeker is added too.

Death at a Funeral is up. It wasn't me, though. I just added the cover art.

So now all of them should be ready to go.

OK here is another one: Teeth

I just added Teeth.

Mad Money is the same way.

Also: When A Man Falls

OK Here are some more sorrta missing titles. Could you please finish adding these to the data base?
1. When a Man Falls
2. Mad Money
3. Ira & Abby

Thank you for your continuing hard work! kelley2002

Kelley I'll add these for you tomorrow. I just popped online for a sec but gotta run and do some errands.

Plus I'm finally going to see Indy 4!
