Another idea, and maybe this is discussed elsewhere (I'm sure I've seen references to it SOMEWHERE), but...

There IS presently a way to identify IMDb links and there are Amazon links to buy movies when available... would it be possible to create such an "easy" link to Netflix-available films?  Or at least a little icon to identify them, next to the IMDb icon, for example.

If so, it would also be great to be able to apply a "filter" for Netflix-available movies!

Anyway, it's just an idea that seems like a next, reasonable step.

Okay... another idea (separate from the one listed above!)

It would be great to be able to see which movies have been rated recently.  Is that easy to do?

Well, I don't record date stamps when a movie is rated, but it should be possible to bring up the last 'x' movies (and TV shows) that were rated.

Q...

The new search works great! Most of the time...

In fact, it doesn't work sometimes if it finds "no results" I think.  For example, I was looking for the movie "Les Enfants Pillards" (which doesn't seem to exist anywhere except in a post by Nicolas) ...  But the search results said that EVERY SINGLE child actor was a result for the search!

So... unless there are LOTS of children in the movie (every single one), there is a problem with the search result....

Sorry for the bad news... hope it's easy to fix!

What exactly are you entering as the search term? I can't see anything wrong with the results that are being produced for the various terms I've entered... (Just entering "Les" produces a lot of results, but they all look to be correct...)

That's funny... yesterday when I entered "enfants pillards" I got every single actor as a result in the Movie and TV show cast list!  Several times, and with several different search-terms (trying to see what the pattern might be).  Now... I get nothing I wouldn't expect...

I don't know what to say.  SOMETHING happened yesterday, but nothing now.  So... looks like an irreproducible anomaly.  Sorry for the bother.
