Not a problem - I keep the link bookmarked. I suspect searching for "Fediverse imdb BookWyrm" might eventually get you somewhere but it's well worth a new post on this as eventually one of the posts bumping this idea up will gain enough traction to get things moving.
I suspect that, if you just wanted MovieWyrm (or ScreenWyrm as you'd want films and TV combined) it'd be quicker to just get BookWyrm adapted for this use but, as there's demand for other usages, creating GeneralWyrm first would lead to an explosion in the different services as you'd have radically lowered the barrier for everyone else to use it as they desire.
And with all the services we rely on getting bought up and/or shut down and/or being poorly-maintained I think this call for Fediverse equivalents will only get stronger. I've used a lot and invested considerable time and effort into some only to have that ruined or simply taken away. I am loath to move my data (where I can, swathes of it is gone) to another service that might go the same way.
