I suggest you ...

Follow/Subscribe to a List, Actor, Director, Studio or Tag

Besides liking a list, I think it would be nice if you can follow a list. Some lists will change or grow over time and it would be nice if people get a notification in their activity of it when they choose to follow a list.

        Ability to follow a director or actor, so you get notified about their new movie would be great.

        so, my idea is that you can follow actors and there'll be a page showing movies with the most number of actors you follow. i think it'll be cool to see how many actors we follow is on the same movie

        Came here to suggest the same thing. Sad to see it was marked as planned over 5 years ago but still not available. It would be really great. Please make it possible!

        It would be great to follow (so keep us updated about) an actor or director, and be notified when a new movie related to them comes out or is announced!

        It would be so nice if we could follow our directors and actors. And we could put our favourite one in our profile. Thanks.

        A feature I'd love would be the ability to follow actors/directors and have their new projects automatically added to my watchlist. This would be a huge help since I have a lot of favorites and cannot possibly keep up with all of them. Notifications would be cool, but this would be even more useful for someone like me.

        Not everyone would like it so the option to turn it off would obviously also have to be there lol. But this is what I dream about!!

        Yes I want to be able to follow directors/actors/editors/crew etc. Not producers. Those guys are assholes (kidding).

        I would love to follow actors and directors as well. Whenever I am on a film site I would like to see the actor and or the director's name highlighted or checked that I am following. This makes the site even more comprehensive and user friendly. Your site is awesome. This feature would put it over the top for me. The site ENTORA has done a great job of that but I think your site is even better and more comprehensive.

        it would be great to be able to flag or like actors and directors whose filmography you are interested in so that you can look through them at a later date without having to add all of their films to your watchlist

        Me2, would very much love the feature to follow an actor, director, etc.

      • dobata commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        it's shocking no movie site has that feature, would really set letterboxd apart from the rest

      • Jack commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        It would be much nicer if I can follow directors and filmmakers alike for when their works come out. Goodreads has this function and it is one of the thing I like about their site, would love to see it on here too. Love the site so far.

      • Happy_Machine commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        It would be awesome to get notifications when a director, actor, or writer you follow releases a new film. I've had the experience where a director I admire has released a film and I wasn't even aware.

      • Sarah Anne commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        I definitely want to be able to follow/like actors and directors! I think the feature showing the percentage of a person's films that you have watched is really cool and useful, as there are many actors and directors whose filmography I would like to watch. It would be awesome to be able to easily access a list of all the filmographies I'm working on.

      • Anna commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        It would be really great to have this feature. Are there any plans to implement this in the near future?

      • Marcus commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        I think it would be good to allow liking of cast & crew.
        Some people, myself included, have favourite actors, directors, etc. I think it would be good to allow liking of cast & crew, making lists involving them, and even displaying favourites on your profile if desired.

      • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Director pages need a Like / Follow / Add to watchlist / Find similar / etc. box like the one on individual film pages

      • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        keeping up to date with number of favourite people's future activities has never been easy, this will be a huge improvement
