In 2016, IMDb, the world's most popular source for movie and TV information, collaborated with San Diego Comic-Con to bring a one-of-a-kind show to fans. Titled "IMDb at San Diego Comic-Con," the show was hosted by none other than Kevin Smith, the filmmaker, actor, and writer. The show premiered on IMDb Freedive, the IMDb's streaming service, and aimed to capture the excitement and energy of San Diego Comic-Con for those who couldn't make it to the event.

The show consisted of three episodes, each of them featuring interviews with a variety of guests, including actors, directors, and writers, who were at Comic-Con to promote their latest projects. The guests ranged from rising stars to Hollywood legends, and included the likes of Will Smith, Margot Robbie, the cast of The Walking Dead, Steven Spielberg, and Seth Rogen. Smith's interviews were engaging and fun, and he brought out the best in his guests, eliciting interesting anecdotes and behind-the-scenes stories from them.

Aside from the interviews, the show also featured exclusive footage from the Comic-Con events, including panel discussions, Q&A sessions, and screenings of trailers and clips. This gave viewers a glimpse of what was happening at the event, and allowed them to feel like they were part of the action.

The first episode of the show kicked off with an interview with Will Smith and Margot Robbie, who were promoting their movie Suicide Squad. Smith, who had worked with Robbie before, had a great rapport with both stars and asked them about their experiences on set. Robbie revealed that she had never read comic books before taking on the role of Harley Quinn, and described the challenging process of bringing the character to life. Smith also talked to the cast of Fear the Walking Dead, who had just finished their second season, and got their thoughts on the show's direction and their characters.

The second episode of the show was a great treat for fans of the horror genre, as Smith talked to the cast and crew of The Conjuring 2 and Lights Out. He started with Lights Out, a new horror movie produced by James Wan, and chatted with the director, David F. Sandberg, and the cast, including Teresa Palmer and Maria Bello.

Spielberg revealed that he had always been drawn to science fiction, and had wanted to make a movie based on Roald Dahl’s book since he first heard it. Smith also talked to Rogen about his new movie, Sausage Party, and the creative process behind it. Rogen revealed that the idea came to him and his writing partner, Evan Goldberg, while they were high and eating food, and that they had laughed about the concept for years before deciding to make it into a movie.
