A federated or FOSS variant of IMDB? (lemmy.ml)

We have bookwyrm.social, which does an excellent job at replacing the need for goodreads (which is owned by Amazon). But is there an alternative to imdb.com?

Off topic, but I feel pretty old. I used to regularly download the entire IMDB and browse on my Amiga.

TheMovieDB and Open Movie Database are popular alternatives but not FOSS IIRC. LibreMD is a FOSS front end for IMDB.

What's wrong with IMDB?

It's owned by Amazon.
