 Posted: Fri, 3rd Sep 2010 12:59 Post subject: IMDB DETERMINED to make me hate it? ITS HAPPENED AGAIN |
|
 |
why is imdb trying SO hard to make me hate it. i mean yeah you take the ratings with a grain of salt, and wading through the forums is an exercise in retarded frustration, but the site itself was always fundamentally sound and very useful.
it all started with the new fucking frontpage update which sucked balls...
but now, all of a sudden, im seeing a new design for individual pages? before it was useful, simple, straight to the point. now its some fruity fucked up bullshitorama fuck ugly design, which is more frustrating and pointless than useful.
why are they doing this shit? i LIKE imdb for movie info, but the changes theyre making are terrible.
--------------------
grr its happened again!

yeah ok thats fixed it... weird... why would the layout get so fucked like that. cleared cookies and its back to normal... phew.. couldnt bear it if the site continued to look like that.
was terrible enough when they changed their front page... oh well, false alarm, move along citizens, nothing to see here.

whats really weird is if it was a typical fuckup on my end, id expect to see corrupted or mixed up images and incorrect positioning n junk.
but im seeing stuff that doesnt exist on the normal imdb page - like that big 'watch trailer' button or the 'watch now' text on the top right... or that yellow bar in the middle of the page...
i mean where are those things coming from?
oh fuck... could it be ive traveled to the future... and... brought back SCREENSHOTS?! oh fuck.. i shoulda gone to the lotto results website DAMMIT.

thats what i assumed as well (disguised as a timetravel joke  )
which in a way makes me just as depressed.. that ive somehow accidentally stumbled over a planned change... and holy fuck its just terrible... if imdb does bring in that design.. nah.. i dont see how ill be able to continue using it.

Saner is not being serious. Unless its the subject of Santa!

Yes, we're creating a user preference for people who prefer to keep the current version of Title and Name pages. We're releasing that preference by Friday, September 24th.
Once you set this new preference you can have the old pages back exactly as they were before September. You will not see the new name and title pages even when we complete the testing phase and the rest of the redesign. Instead, you will eventually see what we are calling a reference view. The reference view will be an alternate view built on the new technology and focused around core reference data. We'll build the design for these new reference pages together with our contributors who will be consulted throughout. |
well thank fuck for that. |

I hated the new design and I really hoped it was just a glitch with the page layouts and whatnot. I'm glad I can use the "reference design" pages instead.
