I do sometimes, when there are blaring errors that tick me off, but they rarely get approved, so I stop caring. They don't even have my favorite movie's title listed properly.

The question is ... have you ever intentionally submitted false information ... and how long has it remained there?

I remember that I did it a couple of times some months ago. What it was I actually corrected them on I can't remember. However, I'm sure it was of grave importance and prevented something really bad from happening to the movie industry

Well......Maybe they just threw it out and I wasted my time.......Yup......That must be it

I remember about 7 years ago, when I was pretty immature (hey, still in middle school) and I did submit a false name to a film. It was an independent movie starring Jamie Kennedy. I submitted that the lead actor's name was "Ivana ****" and THEY ACTUALLY POSTED IT ON THE SITE. It stayed up for about a month! They took it down when I tried to add biography info for Ms. ****, and they then realized it was a joke.

I've submitted probably a dozen things over the years. Mostly AKA titles.

Every once in a while, I'm looking up an obscure DVD that is coming out soon, and it doesn't seem to be in the IMDb. With a bit of searching (crossreferencing the actors/director/etc.), I usually find that it simply has a different title for video. I submit those when I find them, and they usually show up in a few days.

I submitted something but its not there. A guy i work with is close friend to Ben Burtt (lucas sound guy, ewokese, award for ET sound) and he told me that Burtt was the Guy in Jedi who is in the power station, on the ewok planet, who yells something like (hey, or you shouldnt be here) and gets shot first. i submitted that to imdb but it never showed up.

I knew someone must have done this ... which is why I asked. I've seen some stuff on there that was clearly a joke; sometimes it's funny ... sometimes it's really stupid.
