Hi! Is it possible to create a new Watchlist with only selecting for example the Short Films from my whole watchlist? On my list I can select only those Films, then when I go to "Edit", I have my whole watchlist again. There I can only choose to sort the titles by "List order" and "Date added". I would be greatful for any help, otherwise I will just have to create this new list by searching for each short film manually in my list. Thank you!

Hi, Elisabeth G.

There is no need to create a new watchlist, when you just want to filter out of the existing one. For example, how to filter the short films:
  1. Visit the Advanced Title Searchhttps://www.imdb.com/search/title/ ;
  2. In the "Title Type" select ;
  3. Go to the bottom of the page, and 
    in the "Lists" select "Include => Your Watchlist
     ;
  4. Click  to finalize the search;
  5. Then you have additional options for ordering the results: 
All the above actions are introduced by this URL:
https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?title_type=short&lists=watchlist&view=advanced

Hope this helps
