If you are a movie aficionado, it goes without saying that you faithfully view every next show like a devout Buddhist doesn't miss their rites.
And do I need to mention that you take a large share in any conversation about any drama or TV series that everyone is talking about?
But you don't stop there. You crave a way to keep track of the tons of movies you've viewed because, yes, if there's anything I know about you, it's that you like keeping a spreadsheet of anything that is close to your heart.
With that, I hereby present to you 23 Notion movie tracker templates that allow you to keep a record of movies you've watched, are planning to watch, or are currently watching.
These templates are all customizable and editable which means that you can add as many categories and filters as you wish.
Without further ado, let's explore all these templates in further detail.
This free template provides an inexpensive way to make sense of and keep track of all the data around your movie consumption habits.
The template has tons of functionality presented in an intuitive layout.
Some of these functions include keeping track of movies you have already watched and organizing your TV shows and movies according to title, release dates, actors, genre, etc to mention but a few.
The home page of the template presents your featured watchlist of the month, watch log, favorite movies, and shows, and release calendar of the month.
For deeper navigation, the entire template is divided into four sections viz:
One thing you will notice about the various sections is that they communicate with one another. For instance, changes you make in the movie database automatically reflect in your dashboard for faster access.
This template lacks the comprehensiveness of the Watchlist by Rodrigo and does not have the granular level of details that the aforementioned template affords.
However, it still gets the job done if all you care about is tracking which movies you've watched or not, and then maybe the…yeah, genre.
Right off the bat, the template is divided into three sections: movies, television, and books.
Clicking on each section expands it to the full view where you can add the relevant details. However, the simplicity of the template deprives it of a dashboard and many of the automated features you can find in more advanced templates.
Created by Ramiro Caulo, the film/TV series is another template option for movie aficionados.
The template doesn't aim to be an all-inclusive ledger of your movie habits, but as the name suggests, you can use it to keep a list of movies you have watched and would like to recommend to others.
The template also allows you to record a lot of details about the movies ranging from genre to date of completion.
Developed by Severing Schuetz, this template is all about managing and saving your entertainment preferences.
More specifically, the movie & series tracker is designed for you to log the details of your experience with the movies you have seen.
So, in addition to checking off a movie you have seen, you can record your ratings for movies, review them, and categorize them according to genres.
The movies and shows tracker template by Notion Byte takes a format that allows you to store your entertainment records in different categories.
The movies & shows tracker template lets you arrange movies and shows in a manner not unlike in a library where books are sorted according to subject matter.
With this template, you can file away your interests in the following catalogs: genres, movies, TV shows, collections, and streaming services.
The screenshot below gives an example of collections just so you get the idea.
Organizing and tracking are the two watchwords of the Personal Watchlist by Notion Monk.
The Personal Watchlist is also the first template in this list to contain space for anime.
With this template, you can organize your movies, series, and anime, and sort them by genre. The template even comes with a release calendar function so you can always keep movie release dates in mind.
Another core feature of the template is that you can organize your viewing stuff under a “currently watching” tab.
I like it that the template also comes with a dashboard for a quick view of your categories, watchlist, and movies you are currently watching.
Other than that, the Personal Watchlist is not as detailed as say, the Watchlist by Rodrigo.
The Watchlist Tracker by Vivian N is among the simplest templates on this list. It basically serves as a tabular format log for recording the (mostly) anime you have viewed with rows and columns for such details as:
Made by Ozge Cinko, this template is a dual-function one—it’s a space to manage and track your reading material and the movie ones. Let’s explore a little bit of how it works.
The template is divided into an upper segment and another one below that. The upper segment has your watchlist and the lower one features your reading list.
One good thing about this template is that you hardly have to click any button to view any information as everything is laid out flat as one all-in-one dashboard for quick access to most details.
Each segment houses the genres in one lengthy list by the left. Then the center is home to the details about your movies or books depending on the segment you are on.
Many templates have something unique about them but the movie tracker template by Tomoka over-delivers on the level of detail you can associate with the movies in your watchlist.
Put another way, use this template if you want to dominate any conversation with your friends on a particular movie as the movie tracker template allows you to fill in up to 12 parameters on each movie.
Yes, the production studio is among those parameters!
On the orderly side, the movie tracker template lets you categorize your movies based on the months you watched them, your favorites, and what you want to watch next.
You can also get aesthetic with your classification system as the template allows you to use frames from your movies as a cover picture for that movie’s tab in the template and create a gallery of all the movies you have watched.
The movie tracker by Notionalist features sophisticated functions like navigation sections, gallery views, and granular levels of detail. The main sections of the template are
When you open the template, you are immediately greeted with a dashboard that houses your watchlist in grid view with parameters (that you add) along with the movies.

Each of those categories has a search function and the option to add as many filters as you like so you can get to your content faster.
As the name suggests, this template enables you to keep track not just of your viewing habits, but also your reading habits.
