I have Bedazzled which is assigned #21658. Until now, I'm helping you fill up the missing numbers in the 1-22000 range.
 
Bedazzled starts at 7pm. The rest are on TCM over the next 7 days. If most of them have numbers & are readable I will continue to check TCM for movie that are not on the list. I until now I never really considered to check TCM. The #'s are located at the beginning should so they are easy to check every morning. I'll post them as I get them. TCM could fill a lot of empty spaces hopefully

The Thin Man 1934
Vibes 1988 (I have 2 #'s for this one #28964 & 28965) not sure which is correct
Double Indemnity 1944
Meet John Doe 1941

The Thin Man came out in May 1934 so it's pre-code.
Filmratings has Vibes as #28964.
Double Indemnity is #9717.
Meet John Doe is #6560.
 
AFI HAS VIBES #28965 So it needs to be checked from the credits. will check it when it comes on TCM


CIRCUITRY MAN 1990 has a # issue also. AFI Has it at #30292 FilmRatings has it as #30191 Checking movie now. will confirm later

#30292 belongs to Fatal Mission 1990 but can't confirm however if Circuitry Man 1990 has #30191 then the other likely is correct
 
30191 Circuitry Man
30292 Fatal Mission

Both listed on FilmRatings are more correct.
 
circuitry Man 1990 Confirmed at #30191 So AFI is Incorrect with #30292 FilmRatings is Correct

I will have Vibes 1988 on Friday Night will be able to confirm Saturday
 
found another one one TubiTV. I pick movie at random so it's hit & miss. I got another Hit. It looks like Rating of TV-14 & TV-MA which are equivalent to PG-13 & R are good candidates for hits

Decided to try and check Tubi to see if I could come across any Not Rated movies that actually have a certificate number. So far no real luck. Only one I've found is a movie called "Jamesy Boy" from 2014. There is an MPAA logo during the end credits but no certificate number listed underneath. This one could be a problem.
 
If the MPA had their own film database like the one on the CNC site (which is based in France, the site where you can browse the film by number through the address bar), it would include all films with complete details (including certificate numbers), especially from the PCA era and those that are "not rated", aside from the FilmRatings, which includes only films released from 1968 or later and those that are rated. It would help complete the list in a short time.

One thing I've never understood is why does the MPAA not award certificate numbers in chronological order? It makes absolutely no sense, and as somebody with OCD I can say that it annoys the hell out of me.
 
pick up a couple of more off TCM including a bonus that I got today

#20999 Ski Party
#18576 The Giant Claw
#05914 Ski Flying (short) I do not really think these belong on the same list that's why they start with a '0
 
A SHOCKING # FOUND ON AFI. just kidding it likely just a typo someone got 1 happy

#311110 BODY PARTS (# IS CORRECT JUST REMOVE ONE OF THE 1'S) THIS # Is ironc because their is only 53828 movies with #'s of the 411,671 movies made & counting. Just think how easier it would be if all those movies would have a #. The list would be LOng.............. but it would be easy to complete

Body Parts number is already listed on filmratings.com.
 
I know it is. I was referring to the typo of the extra 1. we have not reached 6 digit numbers yet despite the fact we could be well over 400,000 if all movies had a number. only about 12% of the movies actually have been issues a certificate #. a lot of movies do not have a certificate # because production companies do not like the MPAA rating practices.. That is why you see a lot of movies especially TubiTV rated TV-MA, TV-14 and NR of couse you will sometimes get lucky and find one with these rating with numbers. it's incredible that 88% of all movies do not have a certificate #. that is a shocking number.
