The entries on "New Movies In Theaters," for example, would be a great RSS feed, and there really aren't many competitors. Meanwhile, there are only 3 rss feeds: "Born on this Date" "Died on this Date" "Daily Poll." It's like someone started the RSS project on IMDB and gave up five years ago.

Yes, there are far too few feeds. IMDb.com should have a goal to make any page that changes regularly, subscribable. They are eons away from that goal.

There are 3 feeds linked from the home page but none of them work and have not for quite some time.

At the bottom of every page there is a link to: http://www.imdb.com/help/show_article...
But this just points to the 3 outdated/broken feeds.

There is no reference here to the news feeds for each title but these are not working either, eg: http://rss.imdb.com/title/tt0460810/news

And there is no reference to the list feeds which are currently working, eg: http://rss.imdb.com//list/vCdMULjcaRM/

There also seems to be no auto-discovery on most of those pages, although this example triggers it:
