More voting at IMDB

I was wondering around IMDb and noticed that my voting history was rather small. I checked it for a few movies and realized that a lot of stuff that I’ve seen isn’t there. Not that they lost something. It’s just I never voted in the first place. Some movies I saw before I knew what IMDB was. Others were even before I knew what Internet was. Yet others I saw recently, but forgot to vote. Or just didn’t care much.

So, I opened profiles of a few famous actors, and voted for those films that I remember seeing. I checked blog archives for all of them, and some were even mentioned. That made the whole thing easier.

Anyway, I have voted on about 50 films. My current total is 436. There’s still plenty of stuff missing, but I’ll find it eventually.

I have also noticed that IMDB now allows sharing of Voting History, so I made mine public and you can check it out here (you still have to be registered and logged in to view).

The first tantrum

As with many other first things, I missed Maxim’s first tantrum. Olga told me all about it though and somehow I don’t feel very sad that she was in my place.

It happened today in the park, while they were taking their regular walk. Maxim was using something unstable as support and Olga moved him away to for a safer environment. He bursted into cry and shouting. It was so extensive and unexpected that Olga stood frozen. Stairing at him. It must have been quite a sight, because Maxim got amazed by the look of his mother and stopped unreasonable behaviour.

So Olga was caught unprepared by Maxim’s tantrum, and Maxim got caught unprepared by a puzzled look of Olga. I guess they saved each other from an overload, although none of them actually understood what was happenning at that moment.

I guess we’ll see some more of this in the near future. The time has come.
