All Movie:

https://www.allmovie.com

has taken a steep dive down to lower quality
information.

It has removed the Releases label and added
the Streams label, as if they considered it
not possible to include both.

What about releases that have such differences
between them as:

https://www.allmovie.com/movie/colossus-the-forbin-project-am33818

The DVD was pan and scan and the Blu-ray is 2.25.

But allmovie effectively says they are the same,
and since it is not streamable at the moment
no source is given, even though it has long
been available on home video.

No technical information is given about any
streams, like if one stream has been edited
and the other not or if the stream has fake
color added to black and white movies or
not.

And it's streaming info is out of date, like
saying there's a free prime movie at amazon
when it's been changed to having a cover charge.

So just like amazon forums, amazon comments, imdb
forums, jumptheshark, and now allmovie a flip of
the switch and valuable information is deleted!
This shows how fickle web sites are! And is why
the "jump the shark" expression had jumped the
shark the moment the webforum was sold to TVguide,
who immediately deleted it.

It's too bad "filmogs" never took off, to do
with video what discogs did to music.
