The official IMDb Top 250 lists are only 25 items each

Hi,

The official lists of IMDb Top 250 movies and TV only have 25 items each, instead of the full 250.

I know IMDb has the worst possible support for APIs etc, so I reckon these lists are semi-hacked together via some scraping or 3rd party sites/tools, but since these lists are used on the stats pages on Trakt, I thought it might be worth looking into.

Looking at a comment (by user Phoenix2104) from yesterday on the movie list, it would seem that they have been shrinking over time…?

I have no idea if that’s the case, I just saw the issue today as I looked at my All Time Stats page and thought it looked odd :slight_smile:

Cheers!

I’m looking into this, thanks for the heads up.

This is now fixed and all IMDB lists updated with the correct items.
