The Internet Movie Database (IMDb) was started in 1990 on the rec.arts.movies newsgroup by a group of movie fans. Before the first Web browser was being widely distributed, the IMDb was a set of scripts and files that allowed you to build your own local copy of the database on your own Unix-based computer. Since then, the IMDb has grown exponentially, and gradually has become easier to use. Our goal is to be the most fun and useful resource on the Internet for movie fans around the world. With our improvements in the recent redesign, we’ve continued to move forward. See more about the IMDb.
