Status: Pending Resolution

Description: In the "List of Movies" section on dashboard.html, movie thumbnails are currently missing due to limited information within the existing dataset. The absence of thumbnail images reduces visual engagement and can impact the user experience.

Planned Resolution: To resolve this, the team plans to integrate an API or utilize a web scraper to retrieve the missing thumbnail images. This approach will involve identifying a reliable data source, either via an API or a scraper, to fetch poster information for each movie.

Steps Planned:

Identify Data Source:

Research and select an API or web scraper that provides reliable movie thumbnail or poster data. Integrate Data Retrieval:

Implement API calls or scraper functions to dynamically fetch movie thumbnails for display.

Test and Verify:

Ensure thumbnails are displayed correctly in the "List of Movies" section without affecting load times or layout integrity. Environment:
