My Life as a Dog (1985)
The IMDb links on both comparisons are incorrect; they need replacing with: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089606/

Re: My Life as a Dog (1985)
Both links are already correct, leading to the "My Life as a Dog" IMDB page. No changes made.

Re: My Life as a Dog (1985)
I've tested them several times now and neither page will load. Which isn't surprising when you look at the URL currently embedded in the icons:
http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt0089606/
It's clearly wrong but it looks like on some browsers (yours, presumably) it's able to redirect to:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089606/
God knows where that wonky URL came from, but it should be manually corrected to avoid problems for all site users. Personally, I'd do a back-end search as well, to see if there are any more.

That is not wrong. akas... is used for Scandinavia and they will automatically redirect to the standard IMDB page

Re: My Life as a Dog (1985)
Not on my PC running the latest version of Google Chrome it doesn't. I've just taken a snapshot of the error screen and temporarily uploaded it to my site: https://www.brentonfilm.com/wp-content/ ... apture.jpg
I honestly don't mind whether it's corrected or not, but often what works perfectly for site admins doesn't work for all visitors, and faults can go undetected for months until someone drops a line... Which is what I'm doing!

Re: My Life as a Dog (1985)
Not looking forward to searching and changing hundreds of pages because some people cannot access the IMDB link. Works fine on Chrome for me.

Don't blame you. It's not like the link is actually dead; it's just broken. For some.
