Hi Brad Tolley,

Thank you for reporting the problem.

I'm also only seeing four films displayed instead of ten.

...and now it seems the top ten list is not being updated at all.
It should have been updated on Tuesday at the latest and it is Friday. The new X-Men should be #1, but The Other Woman is listed as #1.

Hi Brad -

Looking at the 'New Movies In Theaters' section, I am now seeing 12 titles listed as "Opening This Week - June 6 ", so this section appears to be updated now.

Additionally, looking at the Top Box Office chart here: http://www.imdb.com/chart/ , the Top 10 titles appear to be updated now as well.

The 'In Theaters Now - Box Office Top Ten' should be removed if it isn't fixed. It's quite irritating as it currently is: buggy and cropped. As an example it's currently only showing a single movie which is the 10th in the charts (The Other Woman).

Hi Johannes Seifert,

This appears to be the problem you are referencing.
http://www.imdb.com/movies-in-theaters/

At the bottom of that page is:

Fortunately the Top Box Office chart appears to be working properly.

The IMDb front page also appears to work properly.

Thank you for the detailed response. Yes, that's exactly what I was referring to. I'm aware that the charts work correctly elsewhere on the site - my point was simply that seeing as they've been bugged for weeks if not months in the 'Now Playing' section of the site, they should be removed from there (if there is no plan to fix it).
