The Simpsons - Season 11
I can't find The Simpsons - Season 11 on Epinions. The DVD set was released on Tuesday - October 7, 2008.
I went to the main movie page and clicked on television under videos & DVD and did my search from that page.
http://www.epinions.com/Movies--media_television
There are three results, none of which are the correct item.

Here is the listing at Amazon.com for the DVD set.

I went to shopping.com and also searched there. I went to media and then television to do my search.
http://www0.shopping.com/xPP-movies--media_television
Here are the results, which show what I was looking for as the first result.

No I didn't. I usually don't think to try that.
Ok...I just went and tried that. I got pages and pages of results. With the Simpsons, I found all sorts of listings for earlier seasons and reviews. I went through 3 or 4 pages and didn't find the main listing for the 11th season. I found nothing for The Big Bang Theory that was for the tv show on Epinions. There were listings for reviews of other things connected to big bang, but not the television show.

Oh. In that case, my guess is that SAP is your friend.
Good luck. |

RE: The Simpsons - Season 11
The SAP isn't working in movies right now.
I was posting about this here in case it is a search issue and the items are hidden away somewhere in the database. |

Phantoms
I was just looking for the movie Phantoms.
I started on the movie main page and then clicked on video & DVD to do my search.
http://www.epinions.com/Movies
I got 8 pages of results.
http://www.epinions.com/Movies/search_string_~Phantoms/adv_search_~1
The movie I was looking for was buried back on page 6 of the results.
http://www.epinions.com/Movies/sec_~product_list/adv_search_~1/pp_~6?search_string=Phantoms#list
Here is the listing for the movie.
http://www.epinions.com/reviews/mvie_mu-1080858
When I tried looking on Shopping.com, the results were even worse. 50 pages of results, most of which weren't movies even though I went to the movie page before doing my search. I gave up after going through 6 pages of results.

Scream
I just tried to look up Scream, the horror movie from 1996. I have read reviews on this movie in the past, so I knew it was in the database somewhere.
I started on the main movie page and then clicked on Videos & DVDs. I did my search from that page.
http://www.epinions.com/Movies
I typed in Scream and got 6 pages of results.
http://www.epinions.com/Movies/search_string_~Scream/adv_search_~1
The movie I was looking for was buried back on page 4 as the last listing on the page.
