We've added individual actor/director/producer/writer profile pages for all the movies being voted on in the Great Movie Experiment. This means that you can compare the movies that somebody has appeared in by their relative rank in the Top 1000 movies. For example, Leonardo DiCaprio has 7 Movies in the Top 1000, of which Catch Me if You Can, The Aviator and Gangs of New York currently make up his personal Top 3. At the moment you can find a cast member by accessing the page for a movie and selecting from cast list on the left-hand side. The search box currently returns all movies, and will be upgraded to also search by cast member very soon.

Update 30/03/09: The livesearch box has been upgraded to search for people as well as movies.

The Great Movie Experiment is all about compiling a list of the best movies based on head-to-head voting. After just two weeks of voting it is my great pleasure to announce that we have reached the marvelous milestone of 50 000 votes! A big thank you to all the early-adopters who have made this feat possible. Our list of the Top 1000 Movies is already starting to take shape. The very early leader as of this moment is Jurassic Park though it is of course changing daily at this point. My first reaction to seeing it up at the top was the realisation that possessing as it does such a striking and enduring poster will be swaying some votes toward it on visual impact alone. Of course there are several near the top that will soon topple it once they catch up on amount of votes, including classics such as Scindlers List and epics from the Lord of the Rings and Star Wars trilogies.
