Anything I ever had in those two sections has been unfollowed/removed. It is extremely rare for me to receive any notifications on my Echo devices other than shipping/delivery notifications.

Turning off "Deal" and "Reorder" Recommendations in the Amazon Shopping notifications subsection drastically reduced annoying notifications for me.

I went into the app and think I cancelled the movie notifications. Not sure. It still has "movies" when I go into notifications. I turned off each of four things (starting with Send toi Echo Devices. But when I go back to notifications/following it still has movies.
From "Home" in my Alexa app, I go to the "More" tab on the bottom of the screen. Then I click on "Setting" (with the gear icon). From Settings I select "Notifications". And that's where all the individual notifications preferences can be found.
I went into the app and found "following." It showed movies and I turned off the four possible things it does. Went out and back in and under following it still says "movies". Hope I stopped it.
