It always seems more like an forgotten artifact on their end that is used for universities and research. They are not really a competitor to the open platforms as contributing on IMDb is very limited.

what are open competitors to IMDb?
TMDB and many others, some specific to Anime or other types of content.
I really like imcdb, or The Internet Movie Car Database. Want to know what cars were in a movie? Check imcdb!

Wikidata.org the database behind Wikipedia is a good alternative as a general database including films and related crew
for instance with Avatar (2009)
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q24871
Although is cannot be queried in SQL, but SPARQL instead https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service
