Day 64
While updating my spreadsheet yesterday, I noticed something big: #LEONINE is listed as the distributor on every wrongly credited #Marvel title I’ve found so far on #AmazonDE.
Looks like I just found the root of this metadata mess.

Well, guess it is time to send

Day 58
#Thalia reported back - the #Hiddlestone typo originated directly from their supplier, which even they were surprised to discover.
They’ve now cleaned up their entire catalogue, and Tom is finally listed correctly as #Hiddleston across all products
Thalia can fix their entire catalogue in under 48 hours, why is AmazonDE - after 58 days - still doing nothing?

This whole System is rotten:
Amazon thought distributors checked
Distributors thought retailers checked
Retailers thought agencies checked
Agencies thought studios checked
Studios thought Amazon checked
So nobody checked anything = this typo is 14 years old!

Day 55
#TomHiddleston is still being credited as #Hiddlestone on eleven listings on #AmazonDE. I have been told that this issue was forwarded. I just wonder where they forwarded it to....
Here are my thoughts on everything that’s unfolded over the past 50+ days.

Day 54
Here is a compiled list of all titles I’ve found so far where actors are wrongly credited on #AmazonDE.
This isn’t a single typo - it’s a system-wide failure in their metadata QA.
The eleven separate misspellings of ‘Hiddlestone’ alone make that painfully clear
