Feature Ideas

Fans may not always be subscribed to a particular streaming service and being able to filter their watchlist to see what's available on Netflix for example may make it easier for them to know what chunks of their watchlist they can get through with a month or two of a particular subscription

Add the ability for users to be able to tag movies, shows, and games with various predetermined trigger warnings.

Scores based on how many films and shows have been marked off as "watched" in my watchlist.

I'm watching a hilarious movie and I NEED to share the timestamp of the moment I fell of my chair or my cat knocked the bucket of popcorn. I would love an annotation log under a movie where I am able to do that and share the moment ASAP! Friends can

Give registered users the ability to edit movies and shows in the Box Office Buz database. The system might be initially locked users that apply for the feature so that stress testing can be done.

Design and develop a public API that will allow other websites and users to leverage the Box Office Buz database.

When a new movie trends and I don't recognize anyone… but I think I do.. and then I see a tab that tells me where they were from (probably a popular but niche film/tv) and I relax because I've itched the exasperated goblin in my brain. Most entert

Send notifications when watch list titles are available on a new streaming platform or become free.

Display “What’s Popular Today” and “Trending This Week” based on site activity.

Change log of newly added titles. Possibly posters and stills.

Curated short lists like “Best Summer Blockbusters” or “Critically Acclaimed Sci-Fi”.

Fans want a single place to follow their favorite actors, writers, directors, composers, etc. and quickly see all projects tied to those people without manually hunting across title pages. Today, there’s no consolidated, role-aware view. SOLUTION Add a Favorite Artists feature that lets users follow people (cast/crew). Provide a grouped view by artist, showing their projects segmented by role (Actor, Director, Writer, etc.) with sort and filter controls. Include “new & upcoming” indicators to surface releases at a glance. KEY USE CASES See all projects from people I follow, grouped by person, then by role. Filter projects by format (film/series/episode), status (released/upcoming), platform, genre, and region. Sort within each artist group by year, popularity, my rating/seen, or new to streaming. Get alerts when a favorite artist is attached to a new project or when an existing project gets a release date. Jump into a person page or title page with one click.

Give users the ability to create and manage their own personal tag lists. These tags could then be applied to their watchlists (and, in the future, their collections) to help organize content in ways that are meaningful to them—such as “Rewatch Favorites,” “For Halloween,” or “Family Night.” Tags would also be visible to others when viewing someone’s public lists or collections, adding a layer of personalization and discovery. This feature would let users express their taste more clearly and make their lists feel more curated and shareable.
