We heart movies and so do you, let's heart them together

We all have a ton of DVDs laying around, and have no way to really keep track of them all digitally. Sure, there are services out there who have come and gone that promised to store your precious information once you've taken days and days to enter them.Here comes another, called IHeartMovies.org. We want to preface this by saying that you should always look into the background of web apps and feel free to contact the company to see if you feel like they're in it for the long haul. Nobody likes putting info up, only for the company to dissapear in a week or month.
Having said that, IHeartMovies aims to be a social network for you and your friends (and people all over the world) to share your likes as far as movies go. Great idea, let's jump right into the features.
- Rate Titles
- Break your collections down into lists (TV or Film)
- Check out your collections in multiple views (full description and icon view, or quick list)
- Full search of your lists, others lists, and sitewide information
- Share movie likes and dislikes on Facebook, StumbleUpon, Delicious, Google
But it's all in the presentation here. When you log in, you're presented with a pretty neat dashboard that will show you whatever you want to see based on your interests. Things like what your friends have added and quick surveys.
With this type of format, we really hope that IHeartMovies Hearts us and stays up with things, and that means adding more functionality and more widgets. It's an ajaxified and friendlier IMDB.
Post your lists in the comments so we can see what kind of wacky movies you like.

Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
