I’ve run into a wacky ass problem.

I’ve been trying to search for a movie called “9”, which was made in 2009. It’s an animated movie about sentient burlap dolls that I remember fondly as a kid and want to watch again. IMDB

Problem being, the title of it is basically impossible to search on my sites of choice. I rely on 1337x for the most part. and for the life of me, I cannot search the name of this movie. It either pulls up everything with 9 in the title, some unrelated movie called Nine also released in 2009, or nothing at all if I try to quote-search it.

Anyone have a better site (with search by imdb?) to get it from or can find a mag link to dm? Or maybe know the right way to trick the search box into actually finding the movie

    Very unrelated. But I recall this being the first instance of trailers that I watched and was disappointed when the song in the trailer (Welcome Home by Coheed and Cambria) was not present in the movie at all.

    You can search for “9 2009” to help finding it. Not on first page but does appear (check pm)

    I typically get around this by adding the year.

    so for this example, I would search “9 (2009)”

    After a bit of searching on 1337x, I found a couple torrents whose screenshots seem to be from 9 (cgi burlap dolls) but 1337x is putting a cover image for some other movie called cloud 9 at the top of the description. The comments say the 1337x auto binding messed up.

    For example, see the one listing that comes up for the exact search term “9 2009 1080p BDRip x265 DTS HD MA 5 1 Kira SEV” paying attention to the screenshots and comments.

    haha been there, however I did succeed on finding it and it was either 1337x or ext.to
    it sucks they don’t have -term and “term” to refine search
