I submitted a directors credit for a Movie and an entirely new titel altogether and after waiting for almost a month for the title nothing is showing up.

Jonathan: Please post your last full data submission here on this message board. You can copy it out of the receipt you would have received from IMDb by e-mail immediately after sending it in. Some of the regulars on the board may review it and, if they can, they may provide suggestions as to how to improve the submission to get it included in the database.

Jonathan: I mean, please post here a submission you made where you are still waiting for it to appear on the IMDb site. This way, we can look at what you submitted and see if it looks like it should have been accepted.

Jonathan: Those are just the reference numbers. Only you and the IMDb staff can look up the submission by the number.

What I'm looking for is the actual content of the submission, with the title of the movie and the cast and the crew and all the other information that you submitted.

Jonathan: Regarding Going to Pieces: The Rise and Fall of the Slasher Film, I recommend allowing a few more days. Although director credits are supposed to have been processed through January 30, it's usually advisable to allow a day or so of leeway with regard to the processing dates.

Regarding "Grotesco 2", please see my first post in this thread, particularly the second sentence of it.

                  Jonathan: First of all, thank you for posting the full receipt.

                  Next, I wonder whether this series might be a continuation of "Grotesco" (2007), which is already listed in the database. If so, you wouldn't have to submit a whole new series; instead, you would just add episodes to the existing series.

                  Also, if this series should be listed as separate from "Grotesco" (2007), I notice that there are no cast or crew members listed. Since this show was broadcast over 4 years ago, the names of the cast and crew should be available. You only need to list three people total who can come from the cast, writers, producers, composers, cinematographers, or editors. If you could do that, you wouldn't have to check the box for "Required data not supplied", which tends to make it more difficult to get a title listed in the database.

                  It is the same cast and crew from Grotesco (2007) but it was made as a mini series and no Second season was planned until a fel years later so i see it as a sequel mini series and not a Second season.

                  And why i din add a cast or crew is because i want ed to add the episodes cast+crew later so i won't get the (unknown episodes) thing or to have the order of the cast to be all weird. It has happened before when a cast member with say 7 episodes is lower down the list than an actor with only 2 episodes. So im more comfortable with adding them afterwards since its not a movie. Can you understand that?
