Since the latest update to iTunes Version 11.0 (which I've loved so far by the way), I've noticed when I import a movie on my own, it goes into the Home Movies category (tab) instead of under the normal Movies listing.

I have a copy of the movie Scrooged that I imported and want listed on the same page as the rest of my movies and not on the Home Movies page.

Is there a way to make this happen by default or to move the movie to the tab I prefer?

Thanks.

I don't have either one in mine - but do a 'Get Info' on one of each and compare.
Maybe check the Info tab - Genre.


edit:
Or the Options tab - Media Kind

Thanks bobtomay.

Your edit seems to be bang on. Options tab does allow you to make the change from Home Movie to just Movie. Now I just need to remember that. Thanks.

Yes that one is good to remember as iTunes does this by default. When i import TV shows myself i have top then do the Media option as iTunes doesnt recognise them as TV shows.
