I have many collections in my DB, but Now with Plex Cloud I can’t import it because I can’t directly edit my DB.  
It will be usefull if we can import IMDB lists from Plex.

I’m in the same situation. How did you create your IMDB collections on Plex?

I’ve done it using this script. [http://forums.plex.tv/discussion/147554/create-collections-from-a-csv-list-export-from-icheckmovies-com#latest](http://forums.plex.tv/discussion/147554/create-collections-from-a-csv-list-export-from-icheckmovies-com#latest)

Early 2021 clean-up: duplicate

> I’ve read a lot about IMDB being used, but I would love to have an integration that is tied to a user account, so if I left a review about a movie and rated it, it would sync with the IMDB account; furthermore my review and personal rating would show up on the movie info screen metadata for personal and shared viewers to see. Although, it’s an extra, there are many posts about pulling watch lists and using similar movies “people also liked who liked this movie” for trailers.
