IMDb Pro Account Question

[Lucky Lorri]

Hi Everyone,

Just wondering if it's worth my while purchasing IMDb Pro? I think it'd be usefull for finding some information that I need for my autograph collecting hobby, but I'd really love some opinions on it from users that have already purchased.

Does anyone know if it's valid agency and VV addresses that it gives, I'm just wanting to know how accurate the information is and if anyone out there has it, please get in touch and just let me know if you feel it's worth paying for.

I'm terrible at finding addresses myself if they're not listed here and thought this might be a way that I could do some researching on my own.

Let me know what ya'll think please

IMDBpro offers a free trial period--7 days--which is really free and I have used that. Sometimes the info is out of date (contacted one publicist who said he hadn't had that client for "years") but IMDBpro also has multiple addresses for the celebrity (agent, manager, publicist, legal, etc) whereas fanmail has only one or two.

I don't recall finding good VV addresses but I wasn't looking for that specifically.

So my advice is, try the free days and see what you think.

Good luck!

Ah, yeah I was going to have a go with the free trial, but then I read somewhere (via Google search) that it takes your money even if you only want the free trial, so I was slightly worried about that. But I think this person might have forgot to click on the option 'end trial' or whatever.

Thanks though you've given me confidence to at least start the trial version

Bummer about the out of date info though.

Thanks for the reply

Yeah, you do have to remember to cancel the membership but the button wasn't hard to find and you do get the full 7 days. I think I ended my subscription a day early because I had to work that day and didn't want to forget it but my account was still active through the time I enrolled the previous week.

Be sure to pick a week when you have enough time to search for information. My trick is copy the info to a file so when the trial does end, you still have the info.

Brilliant, so long as it's not hard to find that suits me, I'll sign up for it

And thanks for the tip, I'll be sure to create a file myself and I have 2 day's holiday which I need to use at work before the end of March, I'll just make sure I sign up when I at least have those days off.

Thanks again, great help!
