Thanks for a great site!
As there is already another suggestion under website support, I'll put my suggestions there as well:
Suggestion 1: Why not move the certification field in the release info in the left hand column to the right of the release dates? As most release dates don't have certification info we currently have a strange "-" between most release dates. Moving that info to the right of the date field will enable the display of more release dates, and the column seems wide enough for it.
Suggestion 2: In the "Move Facts" in the left hand column you could add an automatic "min" to the runtime. It makes it easier to understand what the digits stand for.
Suggestion 3: The advantage of the current website field in the "Movie Facts" is questionable, as official websites tend to live for such a short time. Why not turn it into a clickable link either to IMDb or Wikipedia (or both)?
Suggestions 4: On the People page, "Person Facts"/"Primary Facts" could be expanded to include death place as well as birth place, and in the left hand column display of those facts, the system could display the age. Age at death is a simple calculation that could be done automatically when a user enters the death date (could be displayed as a resulting field in the "Primary Facts" entry window). Current age would be a bit more complicated, as the system would have to do a calculation each time a user accesses a page for someone who has a birth date but no death date. It would also need some kind of cut-off if the result exceeds let's say 100 years, in order to avoid silly ages, or display a question mark/warning if current age exceeds a plausible age.

I have one more suggestion while I'm at it: Collections should be sorted by year, not by title as now, This is for several reasons: 1) Films in a series often tell a continuous story, and 2) even if they don't, it's of more interest to film buffs to clearly see in which order they have been made. Seeing them listed in alphabetical order makes no sense at all.
