I've seen a couple of times in the fourum mention of being able to add films ourselves. Never tried up until now, but I cannot find any reference to how to do it, and can't seem to figure it out on my poor old lonesome.

Can anyone explain it to me or did I just imagine the whole thing?

After you are sure the film isn't in the FWFR databse, go to imdb and do a title search. Choose the correct film [and some titles are duplicated or triplicated!] ... copy the url of that film's main imdb page. Then do a FWFR search and -INSTEAD OF A TITLE - insert the url of the imdb page. Submit. That's it! Once the page has been refreshed, it means the film's been added. To check it, click on that filmstrip icon and you'll see a list of the latest added films. Yours should be at the top of the list. With your name!!!
Hope this helps.

Also after you search for the movie, and find it isn't there, on the left side in the box above where you put your review, instead of the title you just searched for put the IMDb URL in. That way you can also submit a review for it at the same time.

If you try to add a film that is in the FWFR databse under a different title when you try to add the film FWFR will not make the new film page.

If you try to add a film and it doesn't seem to work on IMDB goto the alternative film names then search FWFR for them.
