The Odyssey (2026) remains the rank 1 IMDb MOVIEmeter title on August 27, 2026. Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) holds rank 2. All 10 names and ranks match the August 26 snapshot, a freeze that also hit Google Play and Spotify the same morning. Obsession (2025) is the only 2025-dated title in the list. The board is 10 for 10 versus yesterday, with no 5-rank mover.
Top trending movies on IMDb: August 27
The Odyssey (2026): Christopher Nolan adaptation, rank 1 for a second identical day. ABC News's Dog Stars coverage the same week is a different 2026 title; Odyssey is the MOVIEmeter leader.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026): Sony and Marvel Tom Holland film, rank 2. The title also sat on Wikipedia yesterday and still sits on TikTok as the spiderman hashtag.
The End of Oak Street (2026): Rank 3 again. No separate wide-release headline was required to explain a hold.
Mutiny (2026): Rank 4 again.
Insidious: Out of the Further (2026): Blumhouse sequel, rank 5. Google Trends dropped "insidious 6" from its search board on August 27 while this MOVIEmeter row stayed put.

What today's IMDb board reveals
MOVIEmeter is stuck on 2026 theatrical inventory. Nine of ten titles carry a 2026 year stamp. Obsession at rank 6 is the lone 2025 exception, or 10 percent of the list. Odyssey at 1 and Spider-Man at 2 are the two franchise-scale names. The other eight rows (ranks 3 through 10, skipping the 2025 title at 6) are horror and thriller titles that did not move a rank.
YouTube and Google Trends rotated overnight. This chart did not. Google Trends even dropped "insidious 6" while Insidious: Out of the Further held IMDb rank 5. That gap is the point of pulling more than one get_top_trends type on the same 04:01:37Z morning. Zero new entrants in a 10-row board is itself a finding. Facing El Chapo remaining at 10 for a second day is the bottom fixture, not a new true-crime spike.
