Here are other reasons for improved additions for our Genres..

Todays News..    AFI to pick best sci-fi films, Westerns, others,.
In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

Looks to me like we have them covered, terry.We may not call them the same thing but so what, this is DVDProfiler not AFI. Maybe I missed it by I don't see anything article. Where is it written that we MUST follow the AFI, WGA, DGA, The Academy, Golden Globes, or anyone else?

Thank goodness for our Tags.. 

Seriously though I was just pointing out the fact that the AFI is bring the top ten Genres ( there's that word again),, to our fore front conscience this June 2008  on CBS ..

Looks like AFI is slowly running out of Ideas for this popular annual show.
The official ballot (.pdf) is available through subscription and log in here for their 500 top films in ten categories to choose from.

No... there is no way to add new genres. What most people do is create tags for the missing genres they like.


There is one (very) imperfect way: editing a translation file to change a genre you don't use to something more useful.
Though this puts the local display out of sync with everyone else, so extreme care then needs to be taken when preparing for contributing that customized genres don't cause confusion and errors.
