I badly, badly wish Obsidian had some kind of database/spreadsheet feature. I'm limping along with LibreOffice spreadsheets for privacy, but it's a pain having my notes in two different formats. And I miss grep.
1. Sort/filter by columns (ex: status = not watched)
2. Add markdown like "[[Steve]] told me to watch this" and have backlinks etc. work seamlessly with the rest of my notes.
I know you can do that with Obsidian "properties" but I don't want 100 separate files for my to-watch list.
And I've tried a few of the Obsidian database plugins too, but as far as keyboard usability none of them came close to VisiData or LibreOffice.
You can create a movie template with a few props then put them anywhere and then tabularise all the entries with a query.
